The official list of players invited to work out at the 2012 NFL Scouting Combine has been released. The list contains over 300 players, including 65 underclassmen, that will perform all manner of ridiculous drills and measurements to determine their draft worthiness. There were 20 players from seven Big East schools invited, headlined by Isaiah Pead, the Big East Offensive Player of the Year. Syracuse defensive end Chandler Jones and Rutgers wide receiver Mohamed Sanu were also invited. Both are considered possible late first round draft picks that could help their respective draft stocks with a good performance at the combine. Louisville was the only Big East school to not have a player invited to the Combine.
