2015 NFL Combine results: Offensive linemen, tight ends complete on-field drills

A running post of Combine results.

The NFL Combine is underway in Indianapolis with another round of on-field drills already complete. Offensive lineman and tight ends have participated in the 40-yard dash as well as the bench press, and have concluded their responsibilities, which began on Wednesday with meetings, reviews and medical testing.

The skill players -- running backs, quarterbacks and wide receivers -- began their portion of the process, as they met with the NFLPA, underwent psychological testing and participated in interviews. They will also take reps on the bench press and will take the field on Saturday to show how they perform under isolated situations.

Linebackers and defensive linemen will have their measurements taken, undergo medical evaluations and meet with the media. In addition, defensive backs will be arriving to Indianapolis and will undergo testing of their own.

Here is a running list of how the players have performed thus far, with links to the full results for each test:

Tight end bench press

The top bench-press performer at tight end was Louisville's Gerald Christian who delivered 28 reps. That's a tremendous amount for a player weighing only 244 pounds. A pair of Big Ten alums came in second with 26 reps, Ohio State's Jeff Heuerman and Penn State's Jesse James.

Tight end 40-yard dash

It was a big day for the small-school prospects. Southern Illinois' Mycole Pruitt burned up the tracks with a 4.58 second official 40 time with Southern Alabama's Wes Saxton following close behind at 4.65. Meanwhile, the top tight end in the draft class Maxx Williams ran a respectable 4.78 seconds.

Offensive linemen 40-yard dash

40 times aren't very important for offensive lineman, but when one produces a particularly slow time it can stand out. Oklahoma's Adam Shead produced such a time, finishing the drill in 5.74 seconds. Similarly disappointing times were produced by UNLV's Brett Boyko (5.60) and Memphis' Al Bond (5.57).
