Ole Miss defensive lineman Robert Nkemdiche on Friday said he had met with only one team so far at the NFL Combine this week, and that team was the Washington Redskins.
He joined Alabama’s Jarran Reed and A’Shawn Robinson, along with Eastern Kentucky’s Noah Spence -- all big men on the defensive front who confirmed meeting with Washington this week in Indianapolis.
When it comes to his skillset, Nkemdiche is widely regarded as one of the best prospects in this year’s draft class.
At one point, Nkemdiche was considered to perhaps be the first player taken, but with inconsistencies on the field and an off-the-field issue in December forcing him to serve a one-game suspension to end his junior season, questions remain about him at the professional level.
