Ward was one of the stars of the entire combine, tying for the fastest 40-yard dash among all players with an official time of 4.32 seconds while also posting the top broad jump of the combine (11 feet, 4 inches) and a 39-inch vertical jump on Monday.
Three Ohio State defensive ends participated in the combine on Sunday, when Jalyn Holmes completed the 40-yard dash in 4.82 seconds – 12th-fastest among all defensive linemen – while Sam Hubbard led all defensive linemen in the 3-cone drill and Tyquan Lewis was among the top five defensive linemen in both the vertical jump and broad jump, even after battling the flu. Ohio State linebackers Jerome Baker and Chris Worley also ran the 40-yard dash and participated in additional drills on Sunday, with Baker running the sixth-fastest in the 40 (4.53 seconds) and posting the fourth-best broad jump (10-foot-6) among linebackers.
Ohio State quarterback J.T. Barrett went through his on-field workout at the combine on Saturday, running the 40-yard dash in a time of 4.70 seconds, the second-fastest among all quarterbacks. Barrett also ranked eighth among quarterbacks in the vertical jump (30") and 11th among quarterbacks in the broad jump (9 feet).
Buckeye tight end Marcus Baugh also went through his on-field workout on Saturday, tying for fifth among tight ends in the vertical jump (33"), finishing seventh at his position group in the broad jump (9-foot-9) and tying for 10th in the 40-yard dash (4.81).
Ohio State left tackle Jamarco Jones was the first Buckeye to go through on-field workouts on Friday. Fellow Buckeye offensive lineman Billy Price also planned to participate in on-field workouts on Friday, but was unable to do so after suffering an incomplete pectoral tear during the bench press on Thursday.
Each of Ohio State's 11 combine participants, along with other Buckeye draft hopefuls including defensive tackles Tracy Sprinkle and Michael Hill, safety Erick Smith and former walk-ons Zach Turnure, Elijaah Goins, Trevon Forte and Nick Seme, will have another opportunity to participate in combine drills and try to impress NFL scouts at Ohio State's pro day on March 22.
The 2018 NFL draft opens on April 26 in Arlington, Texas.
