NFL teams can speak with draft-eligible players at any of the all-star games, pro days or the NFL Scouting Combine. Even if it’s not reported, teams do tend to speak to most of the players they view as draftable or worthy of priority UDFA signings at these events, so that’s worth keeping in mind. 

The NFL Scouting Combine is scheduled to begin on Tuesday, February 28, and will run through Monday, March 6. At the Combine, teams can speak with any player but are allocated 45 “formal” interviews, which is noteworthy given more than 300 prospects are invited to the Combine every year. 

Teams can also host up to 30 players for interviews and medical evaluations at their own facilities, with players who live or go to college in the local area not counting toward those top 30.

Virtual meetings over Zoom have become a fixture since the 2020 pandemic and will probably continue this offseason.
