Texas Tech football: What Red Raider alums need to show at NFL Combine

Since 1982, teams have been meeting in one location to evaluate prospects in what essentially began as a cost-saving move as a number of clubs decided to save money by bringing as many prospects as they could to one location rather than barnstorming across the college campuses of the nation. Now, every day of this event is broadcast on the NFL Network so that amateur general managers can evaluate prospects from their couches.
