Was the DL group able to top the OL this year?
The first players to hit the weight room at the NFL Combine were the offensive linemen, and they had, as usual, a rather impressive showing. Ereck Flowers of Miami led the way with 37 reps, while the two guys behind him had 36 and 35 reps, respectively. These numbers dwarf those of any other position Thursday and Friday, though tight end Gerald Christian managed 28 reps.
On Saturday, defensive linemen assembled for the bench press, and there were plenty of high expectations. Usually, offensive linemen win out, but defensive linemen often give them a run for their money. That wasn't the case last year, when offensive lineman Russell Bodine put up 42 reps for the offensive linemen and Kaleb Ramsey was tops among defensive linemen with 36 reps. With 37 being the number to beat this year, it was certainly an easier task for the defensive linemen this time around, but they fell just short of that.
Pass rusher Vic Beasley led the way with 36 reps, followed closely by defensive tackle Deon Simon out of Northwestern State. On the other end, a few players managed to put up fewer than 20 reps, including Montana's Zack Wagenmann, who recorded 14.
