INDIANAPOLIS - The NFL Combine is the biggest job interview that any football player will have in their career and seven Buckeyes will get their chances to meet with NFL executives and head coaches as they explain why a team should take a chance on them in the draft.

Zach Boren spent most of his career as a All-Big Ten caliber fullback but when duty called for him to move to linebacker due to depth issues the Pickerginton (Ohio) native jumped in and performed almost immediately at a high level. Boren's future in the NFL likely won't be on the defensive side of the ball but he did show a lot with his ability to just be a "football player" and do what the coaches asked of him.

Zach is not the first Boren to go through the NFL Combine process with Justin going through it a couple of years ago so Zach is going in with a pretty good idea what the process is all about.

We caught up with Zach on Friday when he met with the media to get his thoughts early in his combine experience and to see how things are going.
