It could be a big year for the Bulldogs in the NFL Draft.

Ten former Georgia players will perform before NFL scouts during the Scouting Combine Feb. 28 to March 5 in Indianapolis.

Running backs Nick Cubb, Sony Michel and linebackers Lorenzo Carter and Roquan Smith are among the players invited to participate. Only Alabama (14) and Ohio State (11) had more players invited. Much of the event will be aired on the NFL Network.

Georgia had eight players drafted — the most in one season — in 2002 and 2013.

The 2018 NFL Draft will be held from April 26-28 at the Dallas Cowboys’ stadium in Arlington, Texas.
