CINCINNATI — The Bearcats are well-represented at the upcoming NFL Combine. The league announced 324 prospects received invites, including eight former UC players.

The Bearcats group features cornerback Coby Bryant, quarterback Desmond Ridder, wide receiver Alec Pierce, defensive end Myjai Sanders, safety Bryan Cook, running back Jerome Ford, linebacker Darrian Beavers, and cornerback Ahmad Gardner.

All eight of the players are expected to find NFL homes at this year's draft. If all eight get drafted, it would make up the biggest draft haul in UC history. The 2009 draft class holds the record with six selections.

Connor Barwin was the only one of those Bearcats selected during the first two days of the draft. Cincinnati could get three or four players drafted in the first two days this year.
