In the FCS Huddle: Chance to turn some heads

PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania -- Following are the (HBCU) FCS players participating among 320-plus players at the Combine. Buchanan's current draft evaluation is included with each player.

Jerry Lovelocke, QB, Prairie View A&M, 6-5, 200

Big pocket passer who is viewed as a developmental prospect coming out of the Southwestern Athletic Conference ... Has to improve mechanics, but has the physical tools ... Highly experienced after being relied on early in his Prairie View career ... In a 10-game schedule as a senior, he passed for 2,473 yards and 16 touchdowns and rushed for 10 TDs ... Played in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl ... Josh Buchanan's draft evaluation: priority free agent.

Robert Myers, OG, Tennessee State, 6-5, 310

Intriguing upside despite never earning higher than All-Ohio Valley Conference second-team honors ... Strong coachability has led to his maximizing athleticism and technique ... Has fared well with movement in the run game and against the pass, although he will face challenges against stronger NFL defenders ... Has the body frame to put on more weight ... Participated at the Senior Bowl ... Josh Buchanan's draft evaluation: fourth-fifth round.

Lynden Trail, OLB, Norfolk State, 6-7, 260
