The NFL Combine is a place where NFL Draft prospects show what they’re made of to the many scouts and teams on hand – meaning that it’s a business-first mentality and structure for the players competing.

While the players are there with the goal of improving their draft stock, they’re able to cut loose every now and then – and that’s what former Georgia standouts Nakobe Dean and Channing Tindall did during interviews with reporters on Friday.

With Tindall sitting at the podium fielding questions from reporters, Dean entered the media fray and was able to ask his teammate an important question.

“I got a question, I got a question,” Dean said. “Are you, Nakobe Dean and Quay Walker best friends?”

Tindall responded with a strong “Yes,” and then was followed up by Dean saying, “Go Dawgs!”

The NFL Combine may be a place of business, but Dean and Tindall were able to have a little fun away from football on Friday.

Jordan Davis models his game after former Tennessee Volunteers, NFL great

Jordan Davis put together a strong collegiate career at Georgia, and now he’s preparing for the next level. Currently participating in the NFL Draft Combine, Davis met with the media Friday morning and fielded a wide variety of questions from reporters – including who he models his game after.

When asked what player he sees himself as, Davis said it is John Henderson – a former defensive tackle for both the Tennessee Volunteers and Jacksonville Jaguars.

“One person that I really honed in was John Henderson from the Jacksonville Jaguars,” Davis said. “Very old name and not a lot of kids say that nowadays, but he’s just one of those guys when I first started watching football that I was drawn to. He’s one of those guys that I studied. At my age, he’s one of the greats.”
