Well no surprises here. Kaleb Johnson, Lachey, Colby, Black, Higgins, Castro and Jemari Harris were all invited.
Iowa combine invitees
- Thread starter squeezebox
- Start date
Tough to say not a surprise, but he is undersized. It's also a crazy deep class at the LB spot. For reference, Higgins is only ranked 13th best LB in this years class according to ESPN.
If Higgins runs a decent 40 and has good shuttle drills He will go higher than many expect. Guy is a baller

I like Jackson’s nfl potential way more than black. Kind of shocked he got invited.
I agree. Really like Black, but he seems to play high some times. If he fixed that, he’ll be a load to handle!
Jackson not getting an invite seems to be a product of the league often valuing “flash” over substance and production. I’m sure there’s more guys invited that are likely more athletic or from bigger brand schools. But Jackson is plenty athletic too and has proven production to go with it - on top of high character and leadership. Rooting for him wherever he goes!
I wouldn't be surprised if Jay Hig doesn't go that high, BUT someone is going to get a steal in round 3-5....
