Hokies excel in Indianapolis as NFL Scouting Combine concludes

BLACKSBURG – The 2018 NFL Scouting Combine came to a conclusion on Tuesday in Indianapolis as the defensive backs were the final position group to take the field for testing and drills. LB Tremaine Edmunds arrived at Lucas Oil Stadium as Mike Mayock's top linebacker prospect and he only further cemented that status with some impressive measurables, as well as a workout filled with platitudes from Mayock, Bucky Brooks and other draft analysists.

Here's a look at the results and highlights from the seven Hokies who participated:

LB Tremaine Edmunds
Projected as a consensus first-round pick, and by some as a potential Top 10 selection, Edmunds enjoyed his second straight 100-tackle campaign for the Hokies in 2017 as he led the team with 109 tackles (60 solo) tackles for loss (14), sacks (5.5) and forced fumbles (3). A third-team All-American and first-team All-ACC selection by the conference's coaches and media, helped anchor a Virginia Tech defense that tied for the lowest total in the Power Five by permitting a mere 21 Red Zone scores. Tech also allowed three shutouts, the most in the nation, while ranking fourth in scoring defense at 14.8 ppg.
