The 2023 NFL Combine is set to showcase some of the most exciting college football talent in the country, and many projected first-round NFL draft picks will be participating in the event. Here, we take a look at which of these prospects will be attending the 2023 NFL Combine.
Top Prospects Attend Talent Showcase
Alabama quarterback Bryce Young is one of the most exciting QBs in college football, but he won’t be throwing at the event. Instead, he will throw at his pro day in Alabama. Young is currently the favorite with top US sportsbooks to be the first overall pick in the NFL Draft.
On the other hand, Ohio State quarterback CJ Stroud will be throwing at the Combine. Stroud had a breakout season in 2022. He led the Buckeyes to a 10-2 record, throwing for over 3,800 yards and 38 touchdowns. He is expected to be the second quarterback off the board.

Anthony Richardson, a quarterback from Florida, has been moving up draft boards and is a high-ceiling prospect. He is expected to do all on-field drills in an attempt to impress scouts.
