Daily News | Eagles draft: Four takeaways from the NFL Scouting Combine, headlined by Nolan Smith and Anthony Richardson
INDIANAPOLIS — Four days of media interviews and four days of on-field testing are behind us as the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine comes to a close with offensive linemen and running backs testing on Sunday afternoon.
As the focus shifts to the free-agency period next week, here are four takeaways from a busy week in Indianapolis, from the depth of positions in the class to players who lit up the combine with their rare athleticism.The most anticipated testing day was Saturday’s sessions that featured quarterbacks, wide receivers and tight ends. With three of the four top quarterbacks deciding to throw in front of NFL personnel, the buzz only grew following their performances.
Ohio State’s CJ Stroud showed he was the most accurate and poised quarterback of the ones who threw, placing the ball where he wanted nearly every throw and showing great touch on deep passes. He didn’t test physically but he proved how smooth and consistent he is as a passer, which should hold his status as a top-five pick.
