The NFL on Thursday released a list of the 338 players who are invited to take part in the annual evaluation process.
The San Francisco 49ers, who own the No. 2 overall pick, already got a head start on getting a closer look at the incoming rookie class by coaching the South squad at the Senior Bowl in January.
"The biggest thing is spending a week around people," head coach Kyle Shanahan said during the week leading to the Senior Bowl. "Everyone can study tape and watch that, which is what you base most of your stuff off of. But you don't really know if they're going to play like that in the league until you know what type of person they are. That's very hard to figure out at the combine in Indy in a 15-minute interview. It's very hard to figure out over the phone.
"It's not (hard to figure out) when you spend six days with people. It's not really about what happens on the field. We'll be the same as that as anyone just picking it up and studying the tape when they get it. We're the ones who get to spend a lot of time in the meeting rooms with these guys, and that's a huge advantage."
