A total of 329 players have been invited to participate in the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis from Feb. 24 through March 3.
The annual event at Lucas Oil Stadium and the attached Indianapolis Convention Center features evaluations, interviews with team personnel, media sessions, testing and on-field workouts for most of college football's top talent, entering the 2025 NFL Draft April 24-26 in Green Bay.
"Yeah, I just think that we just stay the course and just keep building like we've been," Lions general manager Brad Holmes said after the season. "I do think that we're very close. Obviously, I thought that we were very close this year, but nothing is going to alter what our approach has been in terms of trying to continue to improve and keep building.
"Obviously, I do think that we are very close, obviously felt really good about this season, but fell short. We're going to stay committed and continue the process."

The Lions currently have the No. 28 overall pick in the first round and have seven picks total, including one each in Rounds 2-4, one in the sixth and two in the seventh.
The list is headlined by Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter, who played both defensive back and wide receiver while at Colorado. He is listed as a defensive back on the league's release.
The Combine is an important week in the offseason schedule for all 32 teams, and usually the entire Lions contingent of coaches, front office personnel and medical staff are in Indianapolis for the event.
It's the first time teams get real measurements on the underclassmen, and the medicals on all 329 players are critical in the evaluation process. Then comes the testing, highlighted every year by the 40-yard dash.
This draft class is strong at edge rusher, interior defensive line and interior offensive line, some of those potentially being areas of need for the Lions depending on how free agency goes.
