The NFL Combine is an annual event held by the NFL that spans six days and plays host to over 300 of the best college football players in the country. Over the past six days, players were poked, prodded, interviewed and put through a series of drills that could very well make-or-break their future in the NFL.

This year, Florida had 10 players invited to Lucas Oil Field in Indianapolis to participate. Only LSU and Florida State had more players (13) attend the event. While some players were limited in their participation due to lingering medical issues, all 10 players still were run through the gauntlet of measurements and interviews that NFL coaches, scouts and general managers will use to decide each players fate.
