NFL Combine 2024February 26- March 4 – Indianapolis, In.

The NFL Network channel will televise the NFL Combine in its entirety. Every NFL front office personnel will canvas the workouts. Players will go through extensive testing on their athletic, intellectual and psychological abilities by the staffs of NFL clubs. Prospects will follow the Combine with school Pro Day workouts. The NFL Combine gives players a chance to impress pro scouts on a level playing field vs most of their top competitors.

With increasing interest in the NFL Draft, the scouting combine has grown in scope and significance, allowing personnel directors to evaluate upcoming prospects in a standardized setting. Its origins have evolved from the National, BLESTO and Quadra Scouting organizations in 1977 to the media event it has become today.

Pro day workouts will be held at various college facilities where the running surfaces can have a variety of compositions effecting their timed results. Pro Days are not standardized with all the NFL Combine events, though the scouts request a broader series of events at their scheduled events.       

On average, there are approximately 75-100+ NFL Combine players who will go undrafted while on average, 50+ non-invited NFL Combine players are drafted each April. Athletes attend by invitation only. An athlete’s performance during the NFL Combine can affect their draft status and salary, and their career. The NFL Draft has popularized the term “workout warrior”, whereby an athlete’s ‘draft stock’ is increased based on superior measurable qualities such as size, speed, and strength, despite having an average or sub-par college career.

The 2024 NFL Scouting Combine begins on Monday, February 26th. The athletic testing and field drills get underway on Thursday, Feb 29th. The events will once again take place at Lucas Oil Field in Indianapolis. Television coverage can be found on the NFL Network.

Chiefs Win Back to Back Super Bowls

Chiefs Win Back to Back Super Bowls

Patrick Mahomes Directs Thrilling Victory

Frank Coyle
www.draftinsiders.com

The Kansas City Chiefs won SB LVIII in overtime on a dramatic drive by QB Patrick Mahomes 25-22. It was back to back SB titles for KC behind the guidance of HC Andy Reid and the brilliant Mahomes who won his third MVP game award in the process.

Mahomes worked his magic one more time in OT after the 49ers took a lead on their first possession with a FG. Mahomes directed the Chiefs on a long drive including a couple impressive scrambles before hitting ex-Jet Mecole Hardman on a short outlet TD pass to secure another title. TE Travis Kelce had a strong game, especially in the 2nd half with 9 receptions for 93 yards with Taylor Swift and her entourage cheering him and the Chiefs through the drama.

The KC defense was brilliant again directed by DC Steve Spagnuolo. Chief defenders, DT Chris Jones, edge George Karloftis, corner Trent McDuffie and backer Nick Bolton spearheaded the aggressive defense which held every team in the regular and postseasons to under 28 points.

Ironically, the Chiefs were the underdog in this SB matchup for the third consecutive postseason game. That’s’ incredible for a club which won back to back titles and their 3rd championship in five years. Every win was away from Arrowhead Stadium in KC with the SB victory in Las Vegas the home of their arch rival, Raiders’ home turf.

Chiefs’ back to back titles was the first repeat since the 2003-2004 Patriots. They will attempt to be the first team ever to win three consecutive SB titles next season. That makes the 2024 postseason were interesting with the Free agency period beginning in mid-March and the NFL Draft 2024 in late April pivotal in maintaining and building their roster for the record

Hail to the Chiefs
