A school-record nine Clemson players were invited to this year’s NFL Scouting Combine, breaking the mark of eight set last year. The Tigers are tied for fourth in the nation in terms of total players invited to the 2017 combine. Clemson and Virginia Tech are the only schools in the nation to have a quarterback, running back, receiver and tight end invited to the combine.
Check out what they’re saying about Clemson players in the combine:

WR Mike Williams said a "long season" is why he won't run his 40 at the Combine. Wants more prep time.

Reuben Foster: 6-0, 229
Ben Boulware: 6-0, 238
T.J. Watt: 6-4 1/2, 252

For comparison sake, Reuben Foster (6'0" 229 lbs.) and #Clemson's Ben Boulware (6'0" 238 lbs) – was not expecting them to be too similar.
