Notre Dame T Mike McGlinchey measured 6-foot-7 7/8 inches and 309 pounds at the NFL Scouting Combine. The combine measurement isn't quite as voluminous as what the Irish listed McGlinchey at for 2017 -- they saw him home at 6-foot-8, 315 pounds -- but we're just talking about degrees of difference with the giant. On top of the basic measurements, he also checked in with 10-inch hands, 34-inch arms and an 81-inch wingspan. He's viewed by many as the No. 1 tackle prospect in this draft class and has experience at both the left and right positions on the line. McGlinchey is a probable first rounder.

Ohio State C Billy Price measured 6-foot-3 6/8 inches and 305 pounds at the NFL Scouting Combine. Slightly under Ohio State's listing, here, as the Buckeyes had posted Price at 6-foot-4, 312 pounds for the 2017 season. He checked into Indianapolis with a hand measurement of 9 6/8 inches, an arm length of 32 inches and a wingspan of 75 2/8 inches. There are some who love, love, love Price's pro potential, with NFL Media's Daniel Jeremiah going so far as to write in mid-December that the lineman was "one of the best center prospects I've seen in the past decade." At the combine, he could potentially put up one of the top marks (regardless of position) in the bench press. He'll be in play for a Day 1 selection come the spring draft.

San Diego State RB Rashaad Penny measured 5-foot-11, 220 pounds at the NFL Scouting Combine. Penny comes in right at his listed school weight for the 2017 season. Some additional measurements for the Aztecs standout -- 9 2/8-inch hands, 31 2/8-inch arms and a total wingspan of 76 inches. While Rotoworld's Thor Nystrom has his concerns about whether Penny can handle the work of a three-down back in an NFL -- he's not much of a receiver or pass-catcher -- he has stock upside for Day 2.

Oregon RB Royce Freeman measured 5-foot-11 4/8 inches and 229 pounds at the NFL Scouting Combine.
The weight's right on the money for what we're accustomed to with Freeman, though he did check in just under his school-listed height of six feet. Additional measurements for Freeman included a hand size of 9 4/8 inches, an arm length of 32 inches and a total wingspan of 76 6/8 inches. Rotoworld's Thor Nystrom sees Freeman's combine testing as critical to his ultimate draft slot. We already know that he's a sturdy back, but his 40-yard dash time is going to be one to watch. Freeman's trying to lock in a Day 2 selection with his performance in Indianapolis.

Iowa C James Daniels measured 6-foot-3 3/8 inches and 306 pounds at the NFL Scouting Combine. Daniels was listed at 6-foot-4, 295 pounds at Iowa, meaning he was able to pack on a little over 10 pounds for his combine measurement. He additionally checked in with hands measuring 9 4/8 inches with a wingspan of 80 2/8 inches. He could potentially be the first center drafted this spring.

USC RB Ronald Jones arrived at the NFL Combine at 5-feet-11 and 205 pounds.
What stands out most is Jones' 8 3/4 inch hands, but Jones certainly does not have a fumbling problem as he possesses the third best fumble rate in the class. Jones has earned plenty of comparisons to Jamaal Charles in recent week, and this weigh-in is very similar.

Texas T Connor Williams measured in at 6-foot-5 and 296-pounds with 33-inch arms at the 2018 NFL Combine.
Some might show pause with Williams' 33-inch arms as it just hits the threshold for a number of evaluators. With that said, a few people already suggested a possible fit at guard in Williams future. As of now, he is frequently mentioned as one of the top tackles in the class. Williams also has 10 1/2 inch hands and a 77 7/8 inch wingspan.

LSU RB Derrius Guice arrived at the NFL Combine at 5-feet-10 1/2 and 224 pounds. That is lead back size for Derrius Guice who uses that size to punish defenders on contact and create extra yards. Guice boasts 9-inch hands, 30 3/4 inch arms and a 72 3/4-inch wingspan. Expect Guice to complete a full workout in Indy after dealing with a deep thigh bruise this season.

Georgia RB Sony Michel weighed 214 pounds and stood 5-feet-10 5/8 inches tall at the 2018 NFL Combine.
This is lead ball carrier size for Michel, who split time with Nick Chubb at Georgia over the last three or so seasons. The rest of Michel's profile includes 9 1/8 inch hands, 31 1/3 inch arms and 73 5/8-inch wingspan. Rotoworld Josh Norris has gone on the record many times declaring his love for Michel's game, but his tendency to fumble the football is a major red flag.

Penn State RB Saquon Barkley officially arrived at the NFL Combine at 6-feet and 233 pounds.
We are already excited to see Barkley's athletic testing numbers at 233-pounds, a weight that will only aid his composite score. To fill out the rest of his measurements, Barkley has 9 1/2 inch hands, 31 3/8 arms and 74 1/4 inch wingspan. A major piece of Barkley's foundation is his athleticism, and he will put it on display on Friday.

Notre Dame G Quenton Nelson arrived at the NFL Combine at 6-foot-5 and 325 pounds.
Perhaps most impressively, Nelson possesses offensive tackle length, with 33 3/4-inch arms, with a wingspan of 82 5/8 inches and hands that measured 10 3/8 inches. Nelson might be the cleanest prospect in the draft, and these measurements only back up that sentiment.

UTEP G Will Hernandez arrived at the NFL Combine weighing 327 pounds, down 13 pounds from the Senior Bowl.
Assuming Hernandez is healthy and an illness or injury didn't cause the weight loss, dropping pounds is a common strategy for the NFL Combine. Simply put, a lighter body moves more quickly. Hernandez's playing weight could be closer to 340, as he produced a great week at the Senior Bowl.

Oklahoma T Orlando Brown arrived at the NFL Combine at 6-foot-7 7/8-inches and 345 pounds. Brown boasts 35-inch arms and a wingspan of 85 1/8-inches with 9 3/4-inch hands. As you can tell, Brown is a massive human being and has plenty of experience at left tackle. His NFL position is in question to some, as we've seen many automatically place him on the right side due to his lack of foot speed. But in reality, Brown will continue to face fast pass rushers on the right side, so his same difficulties could pop up there as on the left side. One of Brown's best traits is his size, as it takes a wide loop to get around him on an island.

I heart Sony Michel. Think a combo like Freeman/Coleman as the floor with insane ceiling potential. And thanks for these updates BN!

The Vikings already put Ohio State OL Billy Price through a formal interview, according to beat writer Darren Wolfson. The Vikings drafted Price's former teammate in Pat Elflein last offseason and it paid off in a big way. Nick Easton ended the season with an injury and the future of Joe Berger is up in the air. Mike Remmers could be moved inside, but many believe Price is a plug and play type who has experience at guard and center.

UCLA QB Josh Rosen arrived at the 2018 NFL Combine at 6-foot-4, 226 pounds and 9 7/8-inch hands.
Rosen's weight concerned some prior to weigh-ins, but he checks in heavier than Sam Darnold by five pounds. Rosen has a shoulder injury and at least one concussion on his resume, but the true pocket passer is extremely consistent in his mechanics and motion which can likely be contributed to his tennis background. He is expected to throw at the NFL Combine.

Louisville QB Lamar Jackson arrived at the NFL Combine at 6-foot-2 1/4-inches tall, weighed 216 pounds and has 9 1/2-inch hands.
Jackson is almost identical to Andy Dalton in size. Therefore we can't wait to see Dalton line up as a receiver. Jackson, who decided against hiring an agent, seems prepared to throw for the first time during this draft process. Jackson also has 33 1/8-inch arms and a wingspan of 77 5/8-inches. We look forward to him proving many doubters wrong, now and in the future.

USC QB Sam Darnold measured in 6-foot-3 3/8, 221 pounds and has 9 3/8-inch hands at the 2018 NFL Combine.
This is simply a check mark for Darnold who passes all thresholds. The USC quarterback announced he will not throw in Indianapolis but will complete athletic testing. Quarterbacks take the field on Saturday along with tight ends and receivers.

Maryland WR D.J. Moore arrived at the 2018 NFL Combine at 6-feet tall and 210 pounds. Moore also has 9-inch hands, 31 5/8-inch arms and a 76 1/4-inch wingspan. Moore was listed at just 5-foot-11 on Maryland's roster, so this is a rare instance that a prospect checks in taller than previously believed. Moore has a real chance of being the second or third receiver off the board.

Alabama WR Calvin Ridley arrived at the 2018 NFL Combine weighing 189 pounds and standing 6-feet 1/2 inches tall.
Ridley also has 9 1/8-inch hands, 31 5/8-inch arms and a wingspan of 75 3/4-inches. It isn't prototypical No. 1 receiver size, and Ridley might be viewed as a bit light, but his routes and ability to instantly create separation off the line or in his breaks is super impressive. He's the favorite to be the first receiver off the board.

SMU WR Courtland Sutton was measured at 6-foot-3 3/8-inches and 218 pounds at the 2018 NFL Combine.
Sutton also boasts 9 3/4-inch hands, 32 3/8-inch arms and a 79 1/4-inch wingspan. Sutton played in a difficult situation with SMU's quarterbacks, but he showed incredible fluidity and athleticism at times with the Mustangs. He's not perfect, especially with how Sutton tends to clap at the football, but if the pieces fit Sutton could be the receiver who emerges as a true No. 1 for an NFL team.

Penn State TE Mike Gesicki measured 6-foot-5 4/8 inches and 247 pounds at the NFL Scouting Combine. Penn State padded Gesicki out to the tune of 6-foot-6, 252 pounds on their listing for the 2017 season. He doesn't quite have that stature, but close. Some of his other dimensions are quite impressive -- not only do Gesicki's hands measure 10 2/8 inches, he also boasts a just-plain-silly wingspan of 82 1/8 inches. The tight end is off to a strong start to the evaluating season, having already put in a productive Senior Bowl week. He should test well in athletic drills in Indianapolis. Gesicki is attempting to secure a Day 1 selection.

I don't see any of the TEs coming off the board Day 1, maybe the SD kid, lots of interesting guys in Day 2, early Day 3...

Notre Dame WR Equanmeous St. Brown measured 6-foot-4 6/8 inches and 214 pounds at the NFL Scouting Combine. These are strong marks in and of themselves, made all the more impressive by the fact that St. Brown actually checks in noticeably more filled-out than his Notre Dame listing for 2017, which had him at 6-foot-5, 203 pounds. The weight gain is encouraging, as St. Brown has shown issues with more physical corners in the past. He also came to Indy with hands of 9 6/8 inches, arms of 33 inches and a wingspan of 78 7/8 inches. The wideout is a prime candidate to see his stock rise via the combine as he continues to make a name for himself away from Notre Dame's sketchy passing offense. He's a late Day 2/early Day 3 type prospect at this juncture.

Walter Football's Charlie Campbell passes along that Texas A&M WR Christian Kirk has been excelling in interviews at the NFL Scouting Combine.
"Not only has Kirk been excellent in the team interviews, but his college coaching staff have raved about him to scouts and NFL coaches," Campbell writes. The Aggies wideout checked into the combine measuring 5-foot-10 3/8 inches, 201 pounds with a a respectable hand measurement of 9 7/8 inches, an arm length of 30 3/8 inches and a wingspan of 72 2/8 inches. Already rocking his interviews, he's a player who should test well in addition.

Wyoming QB Josh Allen measured 6-foot-4 7/8 inches and 237 pounds at the NFL Scouting Combine.
Move along, nothing to see here. These marks are identical to those he checked in with at the Senior Bowl. Allen's also working with sizable 10 1/8-inch mitts, an arm length of 33 2/8 inches and a wingspan of 73 3/8 inches. All indications are that he should perform well in combine interviews. Throwing drills, we shall see.
