NFL Combine 2016 Results: Tracking 40 Times, Bench Press and All Drills

Monday at the NFL Scouting Combine concludes the event, as the defensive backs undergo their testing, showing off their speed and strength for the league's scouts, coaches and general managers. 

Florida State's Jalen Ramsey will highlight a talented group of players at the safety and cornerback positions and is considered one of the top prospects available in the 2016 draft, period. The major question mark for Ramsey is simply whether he'll play corner or safety at the next level.

Florida's Vernon Hargreaves is one of the better pure cover corners to hit the draft in years, meanwhile. And Clemson's Mackensie Alexander and Ohio State's Eli Apple, among others, round out a deep pool of talent in the secondary.

Let's check out all of the results from the day's events in Indianapolis, as recorded by NFL.com, which will be updated as more info becomes available. Each group table is followed by a breakdown of some top storylines from the action as the draft process rolls on.

If there was any question whether Ramsey was a top-five talent in this year's NFL draft, he all but erased it with a very strong showing at the combine. His vertical and broad jumps were elite, and he ran a very strong 4.41 40-yard-dash.

So much about Ramsey was impressive before the combine, of course, like the fact he was the first freshman to start at corner for Florida State since Deion Sanders, or he's versatile enough to be dominant at corner or safety. Mike Mayock regularly compared him to Arizona Cardinals star corner Patrick Peterson during the NFL Network's broadcast of the combine.

Charley Casserly of NFL.com feels Ramsey is actually more fluid than Peterson coming out of college and would be a top-10 to top-five pick in any draft, while adding he remains ahead of Hargreaves in the cornerback rankings (though the Florida star was a bit more impressive in the drills).

Matt Miller of Bleacher Report took aim at one of Ramsey's perceived weaknesses, meanwhile:

Ramsey's combine may have even catapulted him into discussions about being the top overall pick, or at least it should, as Miller noted:

Hargreaves, meanwhile, did nothing but bolster his status as a likely top-10 pick. Mayock is certainly a fan of his, per the NFL Network:

Casserly compared him to Cleveland Browns star corner Joe Haden, adding Hargreaves is the better pure corner cover coming out of college than Haden was. 

That pair is head and shoulders above the rest of this secondary class, though the defensive backs are a deep group at this draft. A few players likely helped themselves climb up the board a bit with strong showings on Monday, including Auburn's Jonathan Jones and Texas A&M's Brandon Williams.

Alexander skipped most of the combine drills, however, as he recovers from a hamstring injury, per Kimberly Jones of NFL.com:

He'll have to prove he's the draft's top corner at his pro day, then.

All eyes were on Bosa early on Sunday, and the top-five talent offered solid results, running a decent 4.86 40-yard dash and putting up 24 reps on the bench press. Those were strong numbers for the 6'5" and 269-pound Bosa, though it wasn't exactly what the Ohio State star was looking for in his testing, per Bill Landis of Cleveland.com:

He certainly shined in the drills portion of the combine, however, as Charlie Casserly of NFL.com rated him as one of the top players in Group 1 running both the defensive line and linebacker drills. He also broke down Bosa's quickness:

Nkemdiche, meanwhile, lived up to his reputation as a physical specimen, running an incredibly impressive 4.87 in the 40-yard dash while posting 28 reps on the bench press. Those numbers were superb for Nkemdiche, who measured in at 6'3" and 294 pounds.

"He's made a physical statement here today," the NFL Network's Mike Mayock said during the combine broadcast, per College Football 24/7.

Matt Miller of Bleacher Report compared Nkemdiche to Bosa, meanwhile: 

On physical talent alone, Nkemdiche might be a top-five talent. But the fact that he has off-field concerns and has a questionable motor could potentially drop him out of the first round altogether, which Albert Breer of NFL.com speculated would happen.

Emmanuel Ogbah of Oklahoma State turned some heads, running a 4.63 40-yard dash and perhaps solidifying his place in the first round. Bleacher Report's Luke Easterling broke down the dilemma many NFL teams may have while scouting Ogbah:

Spence's 4.80 in the 40-yard dash was a big of a disappointment for the first-round hopeful, meanwhile. That result surprised Miller:

Clemson's Kevin Dodd ran a very solid 4.86 on his first attempt, but injured his hamstring on his second run, per Miller.

Darron Lee stole the show amongst the linebackers, at least in the 40-yard dash. He even compared favorably against the famed Legion of Boom, per the NFL Network:

Not bad for a player who projects as a 4-3 outside linebacker in the NFL.

He's also impressed scouts, per Bruce Feldman of Fox Sports:

Leonard Floyd, meanwhile, checked off all of the boxes he needed to on Sunday. He came into the combine longer and heavier than expected, measuring at 6'5" and 244 pounds. Both numbers were positives for Floyd, who many pundits feared would be too slender coming into the league.

His added size didn't hurt him, however, as he posted a very solid 4.60 40-yard dash. Those positives—combined with his ability to generate a pass rush off the edge—make him a very intriguing prospect, per Steve Palazzolo of Pro Football Focus:

Regardless, Floyd certainly helped himself on Sunday and should be a first-round selection.

The two top talents at the position, meanwhile, didn't run. Jaylon Smith's knee issues kept him from participating in the combine and could even drop him out of the first round. Smith believes he'll recover without issue, however.

"Everything will be fine," he told Miller. "Recovery process has taken off. We know I'll be 100 percent again, only a matter of when" 

Miller is certainly high on the former Notre Dame star:

Jack, meanwhile, expects to be fully cleared by doctors before his March 12 Pro Day, per Pro Football Talk. That didn't stop him from benching a solid 19 reps on Sunday, however. 

How Smith and Jack are viewed once they clear their medicals will have a major impact on both the first round and linebacker position in general. Smith was once considered as high as potentially a top-five talent, while Jack was considered a top-15 pick (and a player who could certainly sneak into the first 10 picks).

If teams have concerns about their health, however, both will drop and dramatically change both the first-round board and the selection amongst the linebacker prospects in this draft.

Jared Goff and Carson Wentz have separated themselves from the rest of the quarterback pack. Now they are battling each other to become the first one off the board, which could mean joining the Cleveland Browns as the second overall selection.

Prospects in that position often skip some or all of the combine drills on the premise they could do more harm than good to their draft stock. The Cal product explained his decision to participate in everything to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk.

"I'll do it all," Goff said. "I'll throw and I'll do it all. I think it's the right thing to do. I've got nothing to hide. Go out there and throw and have some fun."

He showed off nice acceleration and solid overall speed in the 40, as the NFL Network highlighted:

Goff is going to do far more important things over the next couple months than running 40 yards in a straight line. That said, as the saying goes, it's all about checking the boxes during the draft process.

He also did well during the passing drills. Yes, there's only so much information to yield for throwing against air in workout clothes, but the one word to describe his effort would be smooth. Everything flows nicely when he throws the football.

Nathan Zegura of Browns Daily liked what he witnessed:

While Goff shined during the first group of quarterbacks, Penn State's Christian Hackenberg struggled. Some of his early throws were off target and he tried to compensate by taking a little zip off the ball, but things didn't get much better.

Jon Ledyard of the Draft Wire commented on the issues:

Charean Williams of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram also didn't see a lot the like:

Combine throws aren't going to totally make or break his stock and he's still got a chance to turn things around at his pro day and during individual meetings with teams. That said, it wouldn't be a surprise to see him slip a bit in the rankings at this stage.

Goff's success in the first group put a little added pressure on Wentz. He responded with a crisp showing of his own and his mechanics really stood out.

Since he's coming out of North Dakota State, there are more questions for him to answer than a typical power-program quarterback. But the simplicity of his drop back, especially on the five-step drop, was a lot cleaner than most of his counterparts.

Todd McShay of ESPN pointed out he also threw the ball quite well:

Unfortunately, Cardale Jones didn't get a chance to put his arm talent on display alongside the top options. He came up lame at the end of his second 40-yard dash attempt with a hamstring problem, per SportsCenter, and sat out the passing drills.

Pro Football Talk used the setback to discuss the process:

Beyond that, nobody else really stood out. Michigan State's Connor Cook and Memphis' Paxton Lynch, who are among the second tier of options, both had average showings.

Wentz may leave Indianapolis with a slight edge over Goff, but there's no clear winner either way. Both guys handled themselves well and performed at the level you'd expect without any defenders trying to hunt them down. Their battle will probably go right down to the wire.

Tyler Boyd of Pitt emerged as the most impressive wideout during the first wave of on-field work, even though he only ran a middling 40 time. The effortless nature with which he moved through the gauntlet drill showed off his reliable hands and quick-twitch reflexes.

Dane Brugler of CBS Sports further explained the rising prospect's success in that drill:

Another standout was Will Fuller from Notre Dame. He's battling the likes of Corey Coleman, Thomas and Boyd in that second wave of receivers and has a chance to force his way into the back end of Round 1 with good workouts throughout the process.

His blazing speed generated a lot of attention Saturday, as the NFL spotlighted:

Being able to beat defenses over the top has always been part of his arsenal. He's steadily worked to become a more well-rounded weapon and that's what can cause his stock to improve.

In the second group, Laquon Treadwell skipped the 40-yard dash, but participated in other drills. It's a decision that makes sense given his status as the likely first wideout off the board. He's built well and is a much better in-game receiver than a pure athlete.

The NFL Network showed him in action:

That play really summed up his day. He limited the potential risk by not running in the marquee event and otherwise everything else was fluid and pro-ready. He adjusted well to some shaky throws and made a lot of clean grabs.

Michael Thomas is one of the few receivers in the class that can even come close to Treadwell's combination of physical stature and playmaking ability. He didn't post lightning-quick times in the 40, but Bleacher Report's Matt Miller thought it was still a solid showing:

He's not quite as polished as his Ole Miss counterpart at this stage, but everything he's shown this week suggests he'll be ready to make a notable impact as a rookie.

Josh Doctson also had a robust day from an athletic standpoint, as relayed by Matt Bowen of ESPN:

All told, Boyd and Fuller walk away as the day's biggest winners among the wide receivers, and for mostly different reasons. Boyd made everything look simple while Fuller exhibited his potentially game-breaking skill set.

Treadwell still headlines the group, but the gap between him and everybody else doesn't look quite as large as expected at the outset.

Interestingly, top tight end Hunter Henry opted against going through the main athletic testing. It's unclear whether that was the plan all along or if his lackluster showing in Friday's bench press led him to back off, but it took some intrigue away from the day's final group.

The Arkansas star should have been able to stand out in things like the 40 compared to what's a pretty average group at the position. That said, he did go through the positional drills and showed off some soft hands, which MJ Brown of Fantasy Sharks pointed out:

That said, the most impressive tight end over the past couple days has been David Morgan from UTSA. He dominated the competition during the bench press Friday and carried that momentum into Saturday with solid efforts in the blocking and pass-catching drills.

He's not the vertical threat Henry is, as evidenced by his slow 40 time, but all of the other areas of his game are on an NFL level. Casey Keirnan of KABB in San Antonio stated he's equally impressive away from the football field:

CBS Sports projected him to land in the fifth or sixth round coming into the day. There's a good chance he improved that standing with his performance in Indianapolis. His stock won't skyrocket because he's not a dynamic athlete, but he can definitely help a team.

Otherwise, there wasn't much to speak about from a tight end perspective. It's a mostly limited group to begin with and several of them, including Henry, didn't take part in the testing. So things should remain mostly status quo heading into college pro days.

Derrick Henry came into the combine as one of the prospects with the most to prove. The Alabama product is not guaranteed to go in Round 1 despite rushing for over 2,200 yards and winning the Heisman Trophy during the Crimson Tide's championship season.

He also checked in at 247 pounds, which College Football 24/7 pointed out was the heaviest of any running back. There's no question he's got an impressive amount of raw power, but teams will likely be concerned with how that will translate to the next level.

After seeing him work out, Bleacher Report's Ian Kenyon came to a simple conclusion:

An interesting comparison based on the measurables and athletic testing also came up. Jack Andrade of the NFL Network showed how Henry compares to not another running back, but rather Denver Broncos superstar edge-rusher Von Miller:

Even if Henry ends up in Round 1, Ezekiel Elliott is still the favorite to be the first running back selected. The Ohio State standout is a physical specimen in his own right and figures to become the more versatile option at the next level with his ability to contribute in the passing game.

The NFL showed him putting his acceleration and breakaway speed on display:

Outside of that top tier, Georgia's Keith Marshall turned a lot of heads with his blistering pace. Bucky Brooks of NFL Media noted the back's tremendous first run:

ESPN Stats & Info showed how he matched up with other top running backs over the past decade:

It was a critical day for Marshall, who battled through knee problems during his time with the Bulldogs, which limited his effectiveness. He clearly hasn't lost any of his speed, and Andy Fenelon of NFL.com provided comments from the back about the medical reviews.

"All the teams, I didn't have any re-checks or anything like that. The doctors said [my knee] looks as good as it can, so I'm excited about that," Marshall said. "I knew that coming in, but I'm excited I got cleared and all that, and I'm ready to go."

Utah's Devontae Booker, who's one of several players battling for the No. 3 running back spot, is still working his way back after suffering a torn meniscus in November. Josh Furlong of KSL noted he didn't run at the combine but took part in other aspects: 

Above all else, Henry started the process of eliminating any lingering doubt Friday. He must continue to impress during his pro day and individual meetings with teams in the weeks ahead, but the combine represented a definite step in the right direction.

Laremy Tunsil, one of the top prospects in the class and potentially the Tennessee Titans' choice with the first overall pick, opted against running the 40-yard dash. Gil Brandt of NFL.com noted Wednesday the tackle told him he was hoping to clock a sub-5.0 mark in the combine's marquee event.

In the end, however, he decided not to take part at all, as Kimberly Jones of NFL Network reported (via the NFL on Twitter):

While it would have been intriguing to see if he could crack the five-second threshold, it's hard to argue with the decision. He doesn't have much to gain during the draft process. He's best off playing it safe with basic position drills unless he believes doing a certain event would help him solidify his status.

Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network highlighted the buzz after the position work:

Beyond that, he'll stand on his terrific college performance, which Pro Football Focus detailed:

His decision gave other linemen a chance to steal the spotlight.

Ronnie Stanley is probably the only other tackle capable of overtaking Tunsil, though it's unlikely. He did have a pretty good day, which should at least keep him in the conversation among the top players in the entire class. The NFL Network passed along Mike Mayock's high praise:

Jack Conklin of Michigan State had a standout performance. Not only did he post a solid 40 time, but his work during the positional drills also showcased his consistently fluid movement, per Dion Caputi of the National Football Post:

Joe Dahl is one player who likely helped his stock Friday. The Washington State guard came into the combine a bit off the radar, but he held his own during the on-field positional work, as the NFL showcased:

There will probably be some minor movement among the group coming out of Indianapolis. Dahl, whom CBSSports.com projected as a sixth-rounder beforehand, could perhaps shift up a full round, and Conklin took another step toward making sure he lands in Round 1.

That said, Tunsil is still a firm No. 1 heading into his pro day. Stanley is keeping the pressure on him by putting together some rock-solid efforts of his own, though.

Roberto Aguayo is the one player from the special teams group everybody is watching. The talented kicker connected on 88.5 percent of his field-goal attempts across three seasons at Florida State and is the rare specialist who warrants consideration before the final few rounds.

He had a strong showing during the initial kicking work Thursday, per John Harris of the Houston Texans' official site: "Inside the bowl, FSU kicker Roberto Aguayo was impressive as all get out. He hit every kickoff eight yards deep in the end zone. Every time. I just can't help but think what a touchback on every kickoff would mean for this Texans defense in 2016 and beyond."

Safid Deen of the Tallahassee Democrat noted Aguayo has met with all 32 teams in Indianapolis and remains convinced of his status: "I think I'm the best kicker coming into this draft. I'm confident in my abilities."

Since there's virtually no doubt he'll come off the board first among kickers, there wasn't any pressure on him to do the athletic testing. The only real question is how early in the draft he may go knowing the type of stability he could provide for the long haul.

The wide receivers aren't going to take center stage until Saturday, but they got things started on a small-scale basis with the bench press Friday afternoon. Some of the players right behind top option Laquon Treadwell in the battle for draft position had good days.

Ohio State's Michael Thomas continues to illustrate his physical prowess by finishing in a tie for third with 18 reps. He's making a strong case to push into the first round. Bleacher Report's Matt Miller summed it up quite well:

Corey Coleman of Baylor checked in with just one less rep than Thomas. The high-upside vertical threat is trying to demonstrate that he's healthy again after missing the end of the college campaign with a sports hernia. The bench press was a good start.

On a separate note, Charean Williams of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram came away impressed after speaking with Coleman:

Meanwhile, Treadwell finished with a mundane total of 12. He previously told College Football 24/7 (via NFL.com) he wouldn't be running the 40-yard dash, so the combine is shaping up to become mostly a wash for him. He'll need to showcase his skills at his pro day to settle in as a possible top-10 selection.

Of course, Saturday's drills should be far more telling for the wideouts.

The tight ends also showed off their strength Friday on the bench press. David Morgan from UTSA dominated the field with 29 reps, six more than anybody else at the position. It's the type of performance that will put a few more eyes on him for the rest of the combine.

Kim Dunlap of IUPUI's Sports Capital Journalism Program provided comments from the unheralded prospect, who could become the first UTSA player drafted, about the small-school label.

"That's something I can't control," Morgan said. "UTSA is UTSA. We played Arizona. We played Oklahoma State. We played Kansas State. I feel like people tend to overlook that."

While Morgan could significantly boost his draft stock by the end of Saturday, Hunter Henry is probably the only tight end who may crack the first round. He's capable of stretching defenses over the middle of the field, and there are no shortage of teams who could use that type of player.

He only finished with a dozen reps, but that's not a major surprise. Though he's a promising receiving weapon, his strength and blocking still need some work, as evidenced by Blitzburgh:

Again, these players will have more to prove Saturday when they go through the full range of athletic testing and positional drills. That said, getting off to a strong start—literally—does help players like Morgan and Beau Sandland set a positive tone.
