The NFL Combine enters its third day of on-field workouts today, and the attention will firmly be on former Ohio State defensive end Nick Bosa.
The 21-year-old opted to forego his senior year at college to enter the draft, and may well be selected with the first overall pick in April.
A unanimous First Team All-Big Tenand the Smith-Brown Big Ten Defensive Lineman of the Year for 2017, Bosa has football running through his veins. His brother, Joey, played football at Ohio State and was selected as the third overall pick in the 2016 draft.

IN THE first round of the 1987 draft the Dolphins used the 16th pick to select John Bosa, a defensive end from Boston College. Miami again drafted 16th the following year, choosing Eric Kumerow, a linebacker from Ohio State whose father and uncle had been NFL offensive line-men. In '93, Bosa married Kumerow's sister, Cheryl, and they had two sons, Nick and Joey. Joey, of course, is a Pro Bowl edge rusher for the Chargers. Meanwhile, Jake Kumerow, son of Eric, is a receiver who went undrafted in 2015 but caught on with the Packers, starting two games last season.
So it is that when Ohio State defensive end Nick Bosa is taken in this month's draft, he will become the seventh player in the family, over three generations, to join the NFL. Yet none of them could ever hope
