NFL combine underway

The NFL Combine is kicking into full gear today with offensive linemen, tight ends and special teamers getting measured for height, weight, wing span, hand size etc. etc. etc. in Indianapolis.

While UConn's Ryan Griffin did not get an invite to the combine, former New London High star Jordan Reed out of Florida is among the tight ends at the event. The running and agility tests will be conducted on Saturday for that group.

Former UConn stars Sio Moore and Trevardo Williams are part of the third group as they will have measurements done on Saturday and will go through drills on Monday. Former Huskies Dwayne Gratz and Blidi Wreh-Wilson will have measurements done on Sunday with Tuesday the day for them to go through the agility drills.

NFL.com have posted grades for NFL draft prospects. Wreh-Wilson is the No. 8 rated cornerback with a 77.2 grade and Sio Moore is the No. 11 outside linebacker with a mark of 68.4 while Williams and Gratz check in with grades of 66.1 and 62.1 respectively. Then again, when you click on the link for Big East prospects they include West Virginia as a Big East school so keep that in mind when considering these ratings.
