In total, 332 of the best players in college football eligible who will make up the large majority of the 2016 NFL Draft class will travel to Indianapolis where they will be paraded around in underwear for crowds of media, scouts and NFL talent evaluators. They will be poked, prodded, measured, medically evaluated, tested and interviewed before finally hitting the football field to show off their athleticism.
It's a week-long job interview where every player will have a chance to prove they are worth the investment of a draft pick, and even the 100+ combine invitees that aren't drafted will look to impress teams interested in offering a contract in undrafted free agency.
But players on the fringe of being drafted aren't the ones that will draw crowds of media and cameras. All eyes will be on the first-round picks and with no clear-cut quarterback ahead of the pack, the Saturday featuring drills with Jared Goff, Carson Wentz and Paxton Lynch will be the most interesting day of the week.
All three quarterbacks have elected to throw at the Combine, which has been a recent trend for top quarterbacks. Just four years ago, Andrew Luck, Robert Griffin III and Ryan Tannehill were at the top of the draft class and elected not to participate in throwing drills.
Instead Goff, Wentz and Lynch will duke it out to prove they're the player that should go as early as No. 2 to the Cleveland Browns.
Of course, that puts the favorite to be the No. 1 pick in the 2016 NFL Draft in the spotlight as well. Ole Miss offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil is a near consensus to go to the Tennessee Titans with the first overall selection and has the rare athleticism to stand out as a star at the combine in agility drills and show why so many believe he should be the top pick.
