NFL combine: Oregon State WR Markus Wheaton and Oregon Ducks RB Kenjon Barner to take the field Sunday

The NFL Scouting Combine continues Sunday with wide receivers and
running backs taking the field at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.

?

Former Oregon running back Kenjon Barner and former Oregon State wide receiver Markus Wheaton are scheduled to perform in front of NFL scouts.

The combine is televised on NFL Network.

?

Former Oregon offensive lineman Kyle Long performed Saturday. He ran the third fastest 40-yard dash time among offensive linemen at 4.94 seconds. His broad jump of 8 feet, 11 inches ranked 14th. He ranked eighth in the 20-yard shuttle with a time of 4.63.

?

Long is projected by many to be taken in the first two rounds of the NFL draft, April 25-27.

?

On Monday, former Oregon defensive lineman Dion Jordan and linebacker Kiko Alonso will perform. On Tuesday, former Oregon State cornerback Jordan Poyer and former Oregon safety John Boyett will take the field.

?

Here's a look at how an NFL scout and NFLDraftScout.com senior analyst Rob Rang view Barner and Wheaton heading into Sunday's workouts.

Kenjon Barner, running back, 5-9, 196

?
Scout's take: "I kind of like the speed. He's a good back. But at that size I don't see him running inside for anybody. Pass blocking will be an issue. Not a great returner. He might find a niche as a third-down guy or maybe on special teams. I liked LaMichael James better. He seemed like he had more big plays, longer runs. I thought he ran a little harder. At that size Barner is not that dynamic. His size puts him at the low end of the positional profile unless you're just absolutely dynamic."
Round projection: Fourth.
?
Rang's take: "I think he's less of a prospect than LaMichael James because he I don't think he's quite as fast as James in terms of straight-line speed. But to me, Barner might be a better all-around player. Better receiver. Better return man. But he's not a very physical guy. He won't be drafted as highly as James (second round last year). Maybe fourth or fifth, or lower, unless he runs really well. I love the hands out of the backfield. That was something I didn't expect. I could see him giving a team five or seven snaps per game. I think he could be effective as a change-of-pace back."
Round projection: Fifth

Markus Wheaton, wide receiver, 5-11, 189

Scout's take: "He's good. You're looking at a lighter guy. But yet he's got real good speed. He made a lot of plays for OSU. Size could be a limitation. His run after the catch was not that great. He's more of a route runner. He'll catch the ball on the move and downfield but he's not a guy who will make a lot of moves and make you miss. He's not dynamic that way. He's a sharp kid and he's been well coached. His technique is very good."
Round projection: second or third.

Rang's take: "He's obviously a dynamic athlete with great lateral ability and straight-line speed. He has ability to elude defenders. There's only a few receivers in this draft who can do that. His inconsistency is a bit of a concern. To me he's one of those guys that projects best to a team that wants to throw the ball downfield consistently. I like him as a blocker but have reservations about his overall size. He has a slim build. But I think he'll run well."
Round projection:? second.
