The 2025 NFL Scouting Combine is set to kick off on Thursday, February 27th. Over 300 of the best 2025 NFL Draft prospects are set to showcase their talents in front of a lot of NFL scouts and decision makers in Indianapolis. That includes some mainstream names that everyone knows, and some less talked about prospects that need more attention.
For the offensive line and tight end groups, both classes bring some legitimate depth to the table. Here are eight players that have a chance to raise their stock in a big way next week. There is a lot on the line for each one of them.
TE Tyler Warren (Penn State)
In reality, Warren doesn’t have to test to solidify his standing in this class. It would, however, be pretty cool to see him in action. At 6-6 and 260 pounds, he’s a rare athlete at the position. With a strong showing at the event, Warren could not only cement his place in a strong tight end group, but as a top ten overall player in the class.
TE Colston Loveland (Michigan)
Loveland saw a dip in production in 2024 as a part of a putrid Michigan passing offense. He finished that season with 56 receptions for 582 yards and five touchdowns. Known as an extremely smooth and versatile athlete, Loveland has a chance to recapture some draft hype back when a big showing. Loveland should show it we
TE Harold Fannin Jr. (Bowling Green)
It was a season for the ages for Fannin, who ended the 2024 season with 117 receptions for 1,555 yards and 10 touchdowns. At a little under 6-4 and 238 pounds, Fannin is a player who does his best work on the move. You can motion him around, line up at various alignments, and can create some mismatches all over the field. As a smaller tight end, Fannin is someone who needs to test well to showcase it can translate to the next level.
TE Elijah Arroyo (Miami)
Like Fannin, Arroyo does his best work on the move and with his impact after the catch. Arroyo is an extremely gifted athlete, and he possesses outstanding flexibility as a route runner. There is a chance he could blow the roof off the Convention Center next week. He has a clear path to be TE3 when all is said and done.
OT Josh Conerly Jr. (Oregon)
If you frequent mock drafts this time of the year, there is a good chance you have seen Conerly's name quite a bit. His game is still very inconsistent, but the foot quickness and length are still very impressive. There is a chance that Conerly could solidify himself in the first round with a strong week, and could rise to the top of the first half of the round when all is said and done.
OT Chase Lundt (UConn)
He doesn't get much talk in the 2025 class, but Lundt is an extremely athletic kid. Lundt also might be the best in the class in terms of foot quickness and lateral mobility. There is a good chance that Lundt could turn a lot of heads in Indianapolis. Expect him to test on an extremely high level.
IOL Tyler Booker (Alabama)
A massive blocker at 6-4 and 325 pounds, Booker had lost over 20 pounds heading into the 2024 season. That weight loss was a big help to his game, increasing his foot speed and flexibility this fall. Booker does his best work in tight spaces, where he is a dominant blocker at the point of attack. Showcasing legitimate movement skills in Indianapolis should allow him to solidify a spot in the first round.
IOL Charles Grant (William & Mary)
It’s unclear if Grant will be able to test after recovering from an injury he sustained during the season. If he can test, it would be massive for his draft stock. With over 35-inch arms, and now over 300 pounds, Grant is expected to run in the 4.8s in the forty-yard dash. It’s easy to buy shock in this type of athlete.
