AUDIO Chris Trapasso Talks NFL Combine

Written by

The NFL Combine is in full swing, and many notable college football players are doing their 40-yard dashes, cone drills, and other drills, ahead of the biggest job interviews of their lives.

Chris Trapasso from CBSSports.com and NFL.com joined Brad Russell in the Average Sports Show on a Friday to talk about the notable running backs that performed well at the combine today including Ohio State's Ezekiel Elliot, Alabama Heisman Trophy Winner Derrick Henry, and former Georgia running back Keith Marshall, who overcame a rash of injuries to show well in Indianapolis.

Trapasso said the NFL looks at the combine in many different facets and the 40-yard dash is still an important aspect of the combine.

"For a guy like Keith Marshall, who may not have been drafted, he runs a 4.3 40-yard dash, and may get drafted in the mid-rounds now," he said.

 

Some of the more important aspects of the process is the interview process, and Chris said former OSU defensive standout Joey Bosa displayed a good sense of confidence speaking to the media and scouts during the Combine.

"For him to say that he's the best player in the draft, you want to see that, you want to see that supreme confidence in a supreme prospect," he explained.
