Results from the 2019 NFL Combine will help teams determine what players they want to include on their boards for the NFL Draft even though, for the most part, those boards were set before the annual event in Indianapolis. Combine results often serve as nothing more than affirmation after months of scouting. Sometimes, though, they can serve as difference-makers.
The 2019 NFL Combine technically began Tuesday, Feb. 26, when the first group of players arrived in Indianapolis. What many consider the meat of the Combine, though, started Friday, March 1, with the first group of on-field workouts televised by NFL Network. That portion ran through Monday, March 4.

While NFL Draft prospects are more interested in impressing league scouts, coaches and executives with their results, Combine records are always in danger of being broken. With that said, Combine results are far from the end-all when it comes to a player's chances of succeeding in the NFL. Several current or recent NFL stars have overcome bad Combine performances.
Here are the results from this year's NFL Combine.
