The University of Oklahoma sent three players to this year’s NFL Combine in Indianapolis. Three former Sooners also made appearances in front of the scouts, to try and improve their draft stock. Let’s talk about it.
Oklahoma is the only school in the country that has been able to produce at least four NFL Draft picks each of the last 16 seasons. That is not an easy thing to accomplish.
Tyler Guyton, who many have pretty much guaranteed to be a first-round pick, had a very good combine. Here are his official stats from his workout.
Height— 6-foot-7 3/4
Weight — 322 pounds
Hand — 10 ¼ inches
Arm — 34 1/8 inches
Wingspan — 82 ¼ inches
40-yard dash — 5.19 seconds
10-yard split — 1.76 seconds, which ranked top-10 in the offensive tackle category.
Broad jump — 8 feet and 11 inches
Three-cone drill — 7.5 seconds, which ranked third among offensive tackles.
20-yard shuffle — 4.71 seconds, which ranked fourth among offensive tackles.
Guyton played two seasons for OU after transferring in from TCU. He made nine starts at right tackle for the Sooners last season.
Andrew Raym
Height — 6-foot-4

Arm — 31 inches
Wingspan — 74 ¾ inches
40-yard dash — 4.95 seconds

Drake Stoops did not receive an invite to this year’s combine. He was second in the Big 12 in receiving touchdowns with 10, trailing only Adonai Mitchell from Texas. Stoops had 84 receptions for 962 yards.
What team will these Sooners be playing for? We will have to wait till April to find out.
