How many players get invited to the main NFL combine?
How many FCS players currently have invites?
I heard Oordt from UNI was invited to A combine, is it THE combine? If so, why was he invited? Do you think he'd actually get drafted?

About 330 but in the first wave of invites sent out last month about 257 or so were. With Szczur pulling out I hope someone else is added.
Yes he was invited to the NFL Scouting Combine. Oordt has a shot to get drafted late but I would not take him. They like him because he is tall and runs well in the 40 but I don't think he plays like a 4.55 guy (the speed they have him at). I think he looks like a 4.65 guy, which is good but not blazing like they timed him at. He needs a lot of working on blocking, getting bigger, and being more consistent. But when you have the size and speed like he does 6th-7th round is possible.
14 FCS players have been invited but I expect 15-18 total because Taiwan Jones will get one and I expect one or two more to earn one out of Markell Carter, Mark LeGree, Cortez Allen, Tommy Irvin, etc.
