The NFL Combine is back this week. All of the top prospects from the world of college football will be in Indianapolis to show NFL scouts what they can do in terms of measurables. That includes Ohio State football players, who have found themselves quite popular.

Chris Olave is one of those top prospects in Indy trying to do his best to get into the first round of the Draft. You can see by the picture below that he is quite a popular guy in Indy.

Olave is one of those prospects right on the edge. He sits on the edge of either being a first-rounder or a second-rounder in the Draft. A good showing in the Combine would certainly help him get into the bottom of the first round and make some extra money.

His receiving teammate Garrett Wilson is a no-doubt first-round prospect. He’s trying to prove to everyone that he shouldn’t just be a first-round pick, but be the first receiver taken overall. He would have to have a heck of a Combine to gets scouts to think that way.

Those are the two main stars at the Combine this week that have the best chance to improve their draft stock. All of the other Ohio State football players are pretty well set in the draft projections. Wilson and Olave are the two that can do the most to help themselves.

We’ll see what kind of numbers they put up. I’m very interested to see what Olave runs in the 40-yard dash. If he can put up a 4.5, that really gives him a chance to be a first-round pick. We’ll report on all of the relevant numbers once these prospects participate in their workouts.
