NFL Combine Opens Today

The 2012 NFL Scouting Combine kicks off today.  While I am by no means an NCAA Football insider (they decide their championship with a computer? sorry... that's for another blog), I did my homework so you don't have to.

Everyone knows Andrew Luck, Robert Griffin III, and Justin Blackmon are the studs of this draft, but every year there are virtual unknowns that turn into NFL Superstars.  Tom Brady, Wes Welker, and James Harrison were nobodies leaving college, and now they are perennial All-Pros.
