The NFL Draft is 71 days away, and before the Ohio State Buckeyes hear their names called, they will go through pro days, interviews, on-field testing, off-field measurements, and everything else that comes with the pre-draft process. The NFL Scouting Combine begins in just under two weeks, and as of February 11, 11 Buckeyes have officially received invitations.
Last year, Ohio State had an eye-opening 15 invitees, including Emeka Egbuka, Quinshon Judkins, TreyVeyon Henderson, and Jack Sawyer, among others. This year, they do not have 15, but 11 is still pretty darn impressive, especially with seven of those 11 coming from the defensive side of the ball. Ohio State is tied for third in 2026 NFL Combine invites with 11, trailing only Texas A&M with 13 and Alabama with 12, and sitting alongside LSU. It is wild to see LSU at 11 invitees after winning just seven games in 2025.
The Buckeyes heading to Indianapolis are WR Carnell Tate, RB CJ Donaldson, TE Max Klare, TE Will Kacmarek, DL Caden Curry, DL Kayden McDonald, LB Sonny Styles, LB Arvell Reese, DB Lorenzo Styles Jr., DB Davison Igbinosun, and S Caleb Downs.
Of the 11, Tate, Sonny Styles, Reese, McDonald, and Downs project as first round selections. Klare, Curry, and Igbinosun are viewed as mid-round picks, while Donaldson, Kacmarek, and Lorenzo Styles Jr. currently profile as day three prospects.
