If you squint just a little bit, you can make out the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine. It's on the horizon, kicking off Feb. 26 and commencing March 4 at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Obviously, draftniks will be looking a lot more closely once it arrives.
While the combine is an important part of the predraft process, it's important to take what we see with a grain of salt. The purpose of the event is to simplify the interview and medical-check processes. The workouts and drills are just there to help teams further form opinions that should largely be based on game film.
