The Red Raiders sent three prospects to the NFL Combine and all three made headlines over the week to advance their NFL Draft status.

Dadrion Taylor-Demerson built upon his strong season in Lubbock while Tyler Owens and Myles Cole showed some of their freakish athletic ability off during the week.

As their time in Indianapolis has come to an end, let's take a look at how the trio fared at the combine.

Rabbit posted some strong numbers in his combine appearance and was able to show some extreme athleticism while being held back by his stature a bit. Taylor-Demerson has had an excellent pre-draft process and seems to be a lock to get drafted in April.

While making headlines about his beliefs of space and planets earlier in the week, Owens had a really strong performance at the combine, leading the way in the broad jump, just one inch off the world record.

Owens pulled up with a hamstring injury during the 40-yard dash, but was expected to compete for the fastest 40-yard dash time.
