INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — National Invitation Camp President Jeff Foster spent the past couple months debating how to improve the annual NFL scouting combine.
His team settled on adding more than a dozen new drills, intended to help coaches and scouts evaluate draft prospects in an ever evolving game, make things more competitive for players and more entertaining for fans.
Foster figures it’s a win for everyone.
“First, we want to make sure the drills are reflective of today’s game,” he said Monday as players started arriving in Indianapolis for a week full of poking and prodding, testing, workouts and interviews.
