Rick Gosselin's All-Time Non-Combine Team

The NFL's Scouting Combine is in full swing. The poking and prodding started earlier this week. The on-field workouts started yesterday. The majority of the players that will be selected in the 2020 NFL Draft are taking part, to varying degrees, in the fun in Indianapolis. There are a lot of college football players, very good college football players, that weren't invited to be a part of the fun. Those uninvited players aren't alone. There have been many NFL players that didn't get an invite. Some even played their way to Canton. Long-time Dallas Cowboys beat-writer Rick Gosselin shined a light on some of the NFL players that weren't invited to the Scouting Combine. He did so with an All-Time Non-Combine Team.

It's a fine team. It's a team that shows that the hopes for an NFL career don't have to end if there's no invitation to the Combine. I think that it'd be a better team if Kurt Warner and John Randle were a part of it.
