We've officially entered NFL Draft season, and the first major event leading up to the draft gets underway this week in Indianapolis with the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine. 

Ohio State leads all schools in the country with 15 players invited to work out for all 32 NFL teams, including Will Howard, Quinshon Judkins, TreVeyon Henderson, Emeka Egbuka, Donovan Jackson, Jack Sawyer, Tyleik Williams, JT Tuimoloau, Ty Hamilton, Cody Simon, Lathan Ransom, Jordan Hancock, Denzel Burke, Seth McLaughlin and Josh Simmons. 

So that brings us to This Week's Question. Of those 15, which of them in your opinion could boost their NFL Draft stock the most with a strong showing this week? 

In my opinion, I'm going with Will Howard. Before the College Football Playoff, Howard was widely seen as a late round draft, possibly a late Day Two pick if someone fell in love with him. Following a prolific four-game postseason run, Howard has done a lot of favors for himself and has entered the conversation to be in the mix for first quarterback taken outside of Cam Ward, Shedeur Sanders and Jaxson Dart.

The Combine isn't just pure workouts, it's also an opportunity for players to interview with all 32 NFL franchises. I've heard enough Will Howard press conferences over the past year to know he's going to kill it in that setting, especially since NFL types love that "leader of men" persona. 

He also boasts nice physical traits, especially his size. A strong passing performance could help bolster his draft stock, too.

Between the leader of men persona, the four-game CFP run, and the fact that if nothing else, NFL teams often overdraft quarterbacks more often than they should, Howard could find himself in a good position to hear his name called in April a little earlier than expected if things go right this week.
