The Big 12 lags behind the other Power Five conferences in players invited to the NFL Combine Feb. 23-29 in Indianapolis, but some of its teams have some strong showings of players who were invited.
Oklahoma tops the conference with seven players who were invited. TCU, West Virginia and Baylor had six players each, while Texas Tech and Oklahoma State had three players, Kansas State with two and Texas with one.
Here's a look at the players who were invited by their schools.
Oklahoma (7) - ILB Dominique Alexander, OLB Devante Bond, G Nila Kasitati, CB Zack Sanchez, WR Sterling Shepard, OLB Eric Striker, DE Charles Tapper/
Baylor (6) - NT Andrew Billings, WR Corey Coleman, G Spencer Drango, CB Xavien Howard, LS Jimmy Landes, DE Shawn Oakman.
