At least 137 draft-eligible players will attend the Big 12′s three-day event in Frisco. Could other conferences adopt new draft prospect showcases in the future?
At least 137 draft-eligible players will attend the three-day event, which replaces the traditional pro days on Big 12 campuses. The ability to change the draft process in an industry that is hesitant to it is commendable. Big 12 officials are confident the event will work with the understanding there might be some skeptics.Draft prospects will go through the same drills they normally would at their pro days and the NFL scouting combine.
This event can help players who didn’t participate in the combine. Iowa State cornerback T.J. Tampa skipped the drills portion of the combine with a hamstring injury. He joins five Iowa State teammates who plan to work out at the Big 12 Pro Day.After playing four years at Iowa State, where he was named first-team All-Big 12 last season, Tampa gets to showcase why playing both in man and zone coverages can help him in the NFL.
“Legitimacy is important in a way that one, players feel like they’re getting an opportunity,” said Roman Oben, NFL’s vice president of football development. “They’re getting evaluated as they would at a traditional pro day, legitimizing the event by having scouts and assistant coaches run drills, measurements consistent that they would have at a pro day or a combine. In many cases, most of these guys wouldn’t get a combine invite.”and some schools’ pro days.
