The NFL scouting combine just informed draft prospects they’ll be in a “bubble” in secure locations next month in Indianapolis, with limited exceptions: “Players who violate this policy at any time will be disqualified from further participation and sent home.”
 

Players will be allowed to invite one “medical support person” (e.g. a trainer) to the combine. That person must be fully vaccinated. All meals and snacks will be provided by the combine. Major precautions, to say the least.
 

The memo:

The combine started out of necessity because there were a lot of programs that didn't play more than a handful of televised games.  The times have clearly changed and technology has made it completely obsolete.

 

Unless you're a fringe draft guy, most players are more likely to hurt their draft status by working out in such a sub-optimal environment.  I still have Beane's "I hope he doesn't run a great time" Gabe Davis quote ringing in my ears.  The Godfather had that eval dead to rights.

The fringe guys are not typically invited if I remember correctly

It kinda depends on your definition of "fringe".  There are 324 players invited, which is a fairly high number.

And approx. 230 draft picks each year.

 

I'd say plenty of "fringe" guys are invited.
