The NFL Combine is an extremely exciting time for up-and-comers and professional franchises. There are several youngsters who are leading the pack this year. Owamagbe Odighizuwa, for instance, is ranked by many to be the combine's top defensive lineman. Also, Auburn's Sammie Coats and South Carolina's Mike Davis have been showing off their custom Under Armour cleats as they gun for 1st round draft picks.
Before his time at UCLA, Owamagbe played for David Douglas High School in Portland, Oregon. Impressively, he is one of the few national players to be named an All-American by USA Today.
Moreover, he his considered a five-star recruit by Rivals.com. Now, though, the combine is here, and it is one of the most crucial points in any college athlete's career. According to Fansided, Odighizuwa has the make-up of greatness:
"Owamagbe Odighizuwa is a great looking football player that leaves scouts and other NFL personnel salivating. His massive frame and strength combined with his speed and quickness give him great potential as a Defensive End in the NFL in either a 3-4 or 4-3 scheme. He has long arms, good hands and great quickness off the ball to get either inside or outside of blockers..."
Owamagbe is not the only athlete that has been impressing recruiters. According to TMZ Sports, Sammie Coats and Mike Davis both rocked some custom cleats while they performed:
"Auburn wide receiver Sammie Coats -- a projected 1st round NFL Draft pick -- customized his cleats at the NFL Combine to honor a 12-year-old girl with leukemia. Coats became friends with Kenzie Ray after she attended a game back in 2013 -- and they've maintained a strong friendship ever since. And get this...Coats recently signed a deal with Under Armour...South Carolina RB Mike Davis requested shoes in honor of his mother, who's his best friend and biggest inspiration."
