next month.

Here's a look at some of the highlights and lowlights of this year's combine:

BARKLEY BLOWS IT UP : Penn State running back Saquon Barkley exceeded lofty expectations in Indianapolis. His 29 reps on the bench press
bested Luke Kuechly's 27. His 4.4 time in the 40-yard dash was better than Ezekiel Elliott's 4.47 and his 41-inch vertical jump was higher
than Odell Beckham Jr.'s 38?.

"Oh no,Womens Luke Kuechly Jersey, I'm not surprised,Womens Mitchell Trubiskyn Jersey, saying he's seen that kind of dogged determination every day out

GREAT GRIFFIN : Shaquem Griffin did 20 reps on the bench press with a prosthetic left hand in what was by far the best feel-good story of
the combine.

" acknowledged Griffin,"My goal was six, who almost doubled his previous high of 11 reps and surpassed the 17 his twin brother,
, Shaquille

managed at last year's combine before the Seattle Seahawks selected the speedy cornerback in the third round.

Griffin is expected to be a mid-rounder like his brother.

" Griffin said.,"Everybody in the stands was hyping me up. I got the guys I'm here with hyping me up. It felt amazing

JACK OF ONE TRADE : Louisville QB Lamar Jackson showed off a strong arm and excellent footwork but also some inconsistency while throwing

"I thought Josh Allen put on a show."

BAD ORLANDO BROWN JR. : The only thing that went well for Oklahoma's massive tackle Orlando Brown Jr. was the vote of confidence from

his Heisman Trophy-winning teammate.

"When are you ever going to watch Orlando Brown run 40 yards down the field?" quarterback Baker Mayfield asked. "You can watch last year's
tape and see he allowed zero sacks. I'd say that's pretty important for a left tackle."

It sure is.

But measures matter, and Brown's wretched week will surely cause him to slide down draft boards: He managed just 14 reps on the bench
