SEC Players To Watch In The NFL Combine

Whoa. It’s the NFL Combine already? Wasn’t it just a minute ago we were thinking about Spring Games and Auburn had a ton of hope for Jeremy Johnson, and Alabama was worrying about who their quarterback would be, and Georgia was being talked about as a play-off contender?
