Nintendo's next big thing is here
The Nintendo Switch is now on sale. Nintendo’s next big game console hit store shelves on Friday.

LSU running back and potential top-ten pick Leonard Fournette is likely to be the most closely monitored player, as he's expected to run a speedy 40-yard dash despite measuring in at a massive 240 pounds. Projected No. 1 pick Myles Garrett will work out on Sunday, but the event is sure to produce several sleeper prospects who boost their stock with strong performances.
