300+ players invited to go to the NFL Scouting Combine are starting to come to Indianapolis to get sized up, do some interviews, all before taking their on-field workouts throughout the weekend. Again, from the MAC, there's five players that'll be participating: Roger Lewis, Kavon Frazier, Willie Beavers, Alonzo Russell and Tajae Sharpe.
You'll notice none of those five names include the 2015 Offensive and Defensive Players of the Year from the MAC: Matt Johnson and Jatavis Brown. Sports Day talked to the two and cried out about lame that is. To be honest, it's only an okay article, and I feel really awkward putting the words "NFL Scouting Combine" and "snubs" together, but the Combine is a big deal for these players, because it's used as a huge tool for their draft stock. These workouts shouldn't be treated as the end-all-be-all, but when two of the best talents from the MAC don't get invites for this, it's frustrating.
