Michigan dominated college football in 2023 en route to an undefeated season and national championship win. Now, it seems like the Wolverines are ready to dominate draft season, as well.
The NFL Combine announced Tuesday that it had invited 321 players to participate in the event in 2024. A whopping 18 of those players — including J.J. McCarthy, Blake Corum, and Kris Jenkins — hail from this season's victor's, Michigan.
That could give the Wolverines a chance to break an NFL Draft record that belongs to Georgia. The Bulldogs saw 15 of their players selected in the 2022 NFL Draft, but if Tuesday's combine invite list is any indication, Michigan will have a chance to rival that in 2024 — especially if Jim Harbaugh reunites with some of his former players in Los Angeles.
Of course, Michigan wasn't the only school well-represented among the NFL Combine invitees for 2024. Here's the full list of the 321 players who were invited to the event this season.

NFL Combine 2024 invites
The NFL invited two more players than last year's Scouting Combine but three less than the previous year's event.
The league decides who to invite to the combine via the event's "Player Selection Committee." This governing body is comprised of both National and BLESTO scouting services as well as members of various NFL player personnel departments.
The invitees are decided by the combine's "Player Selection Committee," which is comprised of directors of both National and BLESTO scouting services and members of various NFL player personnel departments.
According to the league, "all 32 NFL teams are invited to provide input on draft-eligible players" before selections are made.
Per usual, more players will attend the combine than will be drafted in April. So, all in attendance will be looking to make their mark during the 2024 NFL Combine.

NFL Combine workout times
The NFL tested hosting its scouting combine in prime time but has shifted back to a traditional afternoon schedule in recent seasons.
Saturday will be the biggest day for fans to catch the NFL Combine action, as quarterbacks, running backs and receivers will be in action during that session. Caleb Williams, Drake Maye and Jayden Daniels are the biggest draws among the former-most group and all will be jockeying for position as potential top-five picks in the draft.
Drills will take a few hours for each position group to complete. Some will be split into two groups because of the number of players in attendance; others will look to show off a wide range of skill sets in the on-field drills by performing across multiple position groups (for example, both defensive end and linebacker).
Below is the complete TV schedule for on-field workouts and drills at the 2024 NFL Combine.
- Thursday, Feb. 29
| Time (ET) | Group | TV channel |
| 3 p.m. | DL, LB | NFL Network |
- Friday, March 1
| Time (ET) | Group | TV channel |
| 3 p.m. | DB, TE | NFL Network |
- Saturday, March 2
| Time (ET) | Group | TV channel |
| 1 p.m. | QB, RB, WR | NFL Network |
- Sunday, March 3
| Time (ET) | Group | TV channel |
| 1 p.m. | OL | NFL Network |
The on-field drills and athletic tests are only part of the evaluation process under which prospects will be surveyed. NFL teams will also perform medical evaluations and interviews throughout the week. Both of those can have a significant impact on where prospects fall on each club's draft boards, and some can even be eliminated from consideration based on how those exams go.
Of course, teams have to be more careful in interviews than they have been in previous seasons. NFL clubs were warned about their conduct in interviews and were instructed to avoid asking inappropriate questions after numerous players complained about the personal queries they got during interviews.
NFL Combine drills
NFL fans have long considered the 40-yard dash to be the NFL Combine's crown jewel. That said, it's one of just six athletic drills that teams test at the event, as can be seen below.
- 40-yard dash
- Three-cone drill
- Bench press
- 20-yard shuttle
- Vertical jump
- Broad jump
Each drill tests a different athletic skill set. The 40-yard dash tests speed and explosion. The bench press focuses on strength. The jumps showcase the power and explosiveness that a player has in his lower body. Finally, the three-cone drill and 20-yard shuttle showcase footwork and change of direction abilities.
So, scouts will learn plenty about the athletic upside of each prospect at the NFL Combine. And once they do, they will have to compare their new findings with each prospect's tape to fully evaluate both the ceiling and the floor of each talented player.
