The National Football League has announced a preliminary list of collegiate seniors who have been invited to take part in the NFL Scouting Combine, slated for Feb. 24-March 2.

Three former University of Minnesota student-athletes are slated to take part in the event. Wide receiver Eric Decker, linebacker Simoni Lawrence and linebacker Nate Triplett have each been invited. Some underclassmen and other seniors may still be invited later.

For six days at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, players are put through a series of drills, tests and interviews with more than 600 NFL personnel including head coaches, general managers and scouts.
