The NFL Combine is officially here and the UCLA Bruins will have five prospects participating. From February 24th through March 3rd, the Combine will occur in Indianapolis, where 329 prospects will take the next step in pursuing their NFL dreams.
Here are the five UCLA Bruins who are participating and when you can watch them.
Jay Toia
Jay Toia is set to take the field on Thursday, February 27th with the rest of the defensive linemen. PFF has Toia ranked as the 309th overall prospect and the 34th-ranked interior defensive lineman.
The California native spent four seasons at UCLA where he finished his college career with 91 total tackles, 3 sacks, and 1 forced fumble. Toia will need to have a stellar day in Indianapolis if he is to find a way onto an NFL roster.
Oluwafemi Oladejo
Oluwafemi Oladejo will take the field at the same time as Toia on Thursday, February 27th. Oladejo’s draft stock is climbing through the roof just a couple of days before his time in Indianapolis.
According to PFF, the Bruin is currently the 133rd overall prospect and 25th-ranked edge defender. Despite a low ranking from PFF, Oladejo is projected by some NFL analysts to be drafted in the 1st round as high as pick 12.
Oluwafemi Oladejo played two seasons as a Bruin where he ended his time at UCLA with 111 total tackles, 5 sacks, and 5 pass deflections. Expect to see a ton of hype for the former Bruin this week as he is expected to have a huge day at the Combine.

Moliki Matavao
Moliki Matavao will make his NFL Combine on Friday, February 28th. The Bruin is currently ranked as the 247th overall prospect and the 17th-ranked tight end.
Matavao spent two seasons with the UCLA Bruins where he had 55 receptions, 789 total yards, and 4 touchdowns as a Bruin. Moliki improved in each season he played where he truly has the size and physicality of an NFL tight end. I believe that Matavao could be one of the most impressive tight ends at the Combine.
Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger will take the field in Indianapolis on Thursday, February 27th. Schwesinger enters the week as the best-ranked UCLA Bruins prospect according to PFF where he is the 48th overall prospect and 3rd ranked Linebacker.
The former Bruin spent three seasons with UCLA where he had a monster 2024 season. Schwesinger ended his college career with 163 total tackles, 5 sacks, and 2 interceptions.
With the linebacker class being one of the shallowest position groups in the 2025 NFL Draft, Schwesinger could elevate his draft stock even higher with a good performance at the Combine.
Kain Medrano
Kain Medrano is another UCLA Bruins player who will take the field in Indianapolis on Thursday, February 27th. Medrano is a prospect that isn’t expected to be drafted as he is not even listed on the PFF website. Still, Medrano could find a way onto draft boards with a good performance at the combine.
Medrano spent all 5 years of his college career at UCLA where he had 194 total tackles, 4 forced fumbles, and 3.5 sacks. Medrano is a supremely underrated prospect who can only benefit from being invited to the 2025 NFL Combine.
