2026 NFL Combine On-Field Schedule
- Thursday, Feb. 26 (2-7 p.m. CT): Defensive linemen, linebackers
- Friday, Feb. 27 (2-7 p.m. CT): Defensive backs, tight ends
- Saturday, Feb. 28 (Noon-7 p.m. CT): Quarterbacks, wide receivers, running backs

Defensive linemen
Zxavian Harris: Onfield Thursday, Feb. 26 (2-7 p.m. CT)
- Pre-combine prospect grade: 6.34
- Official Measurements: HEIGHT: 6’8″ | WEIGHT: 330-lbs. | Arm: 34 5/8’’ | Hand: 10″
Overview from NFL:
Harris is a disruptive, alignment-versatile interior defender with mismatch traits and untapped potential. He often overwhelms single blocks and disrupts run schemes from a gap away. He wasn’t asked to two-gap at Ole Miss very often, but has the tools for the task. He’s a pocket-pushing rusher, but with better hand work he should see a boost in pressure production. While Harris can play 3-,4- and 5-techniques, his best NFL fit might be nose tackle.

Tight End
Dae’Quan Wright – TE: Onfield Friday, Feb. 27 (2-7 p.m. CT):
- Pre-combine prospect grade: 5.99
- Official Measurements: HEIGHT: 6’4Â | WEIGHT 255 lbs. | Arm: 32 1/4″ | Hand: 9 1/4″
Overview from NFL Analyst Lance Zierlein
“Wright is a high-cut, tight-hipped tight end who can stretch the field vertically…He builds speed to threaten defenses, working the vertical limbs of the route tree. He can gain an advantage on linebackers when aligned outside. He’s big and strong enough to improve as a run blocker but needs better technique and commitment in that area. Wright projects as a Day 3 pick…”
Ole Miss TE Dae’Quan Wright has one of the better all-around games in this class with good size (6’4″, 255). A better technical blocker than powerful, but this violent collision and finish was fun to see on his tape! pic.twitter.com/dNMsLX59Sd

Wide Receivers
De’Zhaun Stribling – WR: Onfield Saturday, Feb. 28 (Noon-7 p.m. CT)
- Pre-combine prospect grade: 6.17
- Official Measurements: HEIGHT: 6’2″ | WEIGHT: 210 lbs | Arm: 31 5/8″ | 10″
Overview of Stribling from NFL Analyst Lance Zierlein
“Long-striding, vertical-access wideout with steady play and production. Stribling has good size and early acceleration to climb over the top of coverage…His downfield ball skills are above average….He has legit speed after the catch once he finds open grass. He’s also one of the most competitive run blockers in the WR class. Stribling projects as an immediate WR4 who could eventually work his way into a starting role.”

Big bodied WR that’s really good at the catch point. Underrated route runner and will absolutely block his ass off. A dangerous vertical threat. A real run heavy team will love him! pic.twitter.com/idyVud47ni

Harrison Wallace III – WR: Onfield Saturday, Feb. 28 (Noon-7 p.m. CT)
- Pre-combine prospect grade: Not graded at this point
- Official measurements: HEIGHT: 5’11” | WEIGHT: 194 lbs. | Arm: 32 1/8″ | Hand: 8 3/8″
Overview from The Draft Network:Â
“Harrison “Tre” Wallace III, with his speed and acceleration, has the traits to be a vertical threat for an NFL offense. He consistently showcases the ability to create explosive plays down the field using his speed and quick acceleration. He possesses  high-end acceleration and true top-end speed, allowing him to run past defenders consistently. In an NFL offense, go routes, posts, and slot fades should be staple concepts to capitalize on his vertical ability. As a deep threat, Wallace has proven he can track the football effectively. Whether slowing down to adjust to an underthrown pass or maintaining full speed while tracking the ball over his shoulder, Wallace shows good ball skills and concentration to finish explosive plays down the field.”

Offensive Linemen
Diego Pounds – OL: Sunday, March 1 (NOON-4 p.m. CT)
- Pre-combine prospect grade: Not graded at this time
- Official Measurements: HEIGHT: 6’5″ | WEIGHT: 332 lbs | Arm: 33 3/4″ | Hand: 9 3/4″
Overview from WalterFootball.com:Â
“One of the Rebels who did an excellent job of blocking Miami’s Rueben Bain and Akheem Mesidor was left tackle Diego Pounds. Pounds was stonewalling bull rushes and cutting off the edge in pass protection….He was able to get Bain far around the pocket and tied up enough for his quarterback. Pounds got a huge block on Bain for a fourth-quarter touchdown pass that gave Ole Miss a late lead. The Fiesta Bowl tape is going to help Pounds’ draft grade, as he was very good taking on two future NFL starters and early-round picks.”
