Northwestern
T Rashawn Slater
Height: 6'4″ (OT: 13th percentile, G: 51st percentile)
Weight: 304 (OT: 18th, G: 23rd)
Arm: 33″ (OT: 13th, G: 37th)
Bench: 33 reps (OT: 96th, G: 90th)
40-yard: 4.88 (OT: 97th, G: 98th)
3-cone: 7.48 (OT: 83rd, G: 87th)
The size and arm length were as expected, and they do Slater no favors when it comes to his projection at tackle at the next level. However, he did verify his status as an athletic freak.
One of the most technically advanced prospects we have seen at the position, he pairs those outstanding testing numbers with outstanding collegiate production. In his last year at Northwestern, Slater posted a 90.0 PFF grade and allowed just five pressures in 11 games in his final collegiate season. Teams should be at peace with Slater’s size after this pro day. He is going to hold up at tackle in the NFL.

CB Greg Newsome II
Height: 6'0″ (66th percentile)
Weight: 192 (51st)
Arm: 31 1/8″ (41st)
Vertical: 40 (91st)
Broad jump: 123 (55th)
Bench: 18 (85th)
40-yard: 4.37 (91st)
Short shuttle: 4.28 (31st)
3-cone: 6.94 (49th)
Newsome just made himself a whole lot of money with his pro-day performance and is legitimately making a case to be the third corner off the board in April. He is an exceptional all-around athlete who was also a great all-around lockdown corner in Northwestern’s zone-heavy defense.
Newsome made ample plays from off coverage and held up at the line of scrimmage on the few opportunities he had in press-man coverage. Last year for the Wildcats, Newsome allowed just 93 yards and five first downs on 223 coverage snaps while making eight plays on the ball. He can play in any scheme at the next level and is now likely to hear his name called in Round 1.

Height: 6'3″ (43rd percentile)
Weight: 265 (62nd)

Wisconsin-Whitewater
iOL Quinn Meinerz
Height: 6'3″ (19th percentile among guards)
Weight: 320 (79th)
Vertical: 32 (90th)
Broad jump: 111 (90th)
40-yard: 4.86 (99th)
Short shuttle: 4.47 (93rd)
3-cone: 7.33 (97th)
Meinerz hasn’t played a down for D-III Wisconsin-Whitewater since the 2019 season due to COVID-19 impacting their 2020 campaign, but his draft stock has skyrocketed in recent months. He dominated the Senior Bowl with the second-highest win rate in one-on-ones among all interior offensive linemen and just crushed his pro day.
Every single one of those testing numbers from Meinerz surpassed the 90th percentile among interior offensive line prospects historically. Teams are unlikely to take chances on small-school prospects early in the 2021 NFL Draft, but Meinerz looks like an exception to that.

I love everything I hear about that guy. And I believe he'll definitely go in the 2nd to someone.

I guess I better start looking at Slater a little closer. For whatever reason I have kind of written him off

I read where the Stoolers have talked to him. So taking him before them screws them over which is always nice too

Pollack is well known as a big advocate of wide zone (like we saw in 2018). That’s not changing in 2021. Meinerz is more of a power guy but he seems athletic enough so maybe Pollack thinks he could be a good fit (if he was actually there in attendance - it just says OL coach without specifically naming him)

Typo. According to the link, it was 23 reps. Still impressive though.

Marshall's OT Josh Ball had his pro day today. Ball is one of those slightly under the radar prospects that will go early to mid day 3. His tape and talent isn't what is pushing him down the draft boards.
Quote:Ball measured 6′ 7 3/8″ and 308 pounds with 35-inch arms. He completed 28 reps on the bench, touched 27.5 inches in the vertical jump, and 8’10” in the broad jump. His forty was timed at 5.19 seconds, while his short shuttle was 4.67 seconds. During position drills, Ball looked athletic, smooth, and was always on balance. The Green Bay Packers ran the position drills.

He may go in the 4th or 5th. It wouldn't hurt for us to check him out.

I know nothing about Hubert but when I watched Smith-Marsette I really liked him.
Heard he could be a mid to late round pick.

Joseph Ossai is having himself a day at the Texas Pro Day. I had looked at him for a potential pass rusher for the Bengals in round 2.

I like it, after the 3rd round it starts to dry up as far as pass rushers go.

Jackson Carman solidified himself as a guard with emergency tackle ability today. He came in a 6047 317 32 1/2 arms.
He refuse to test saying a possibility he will do a workout on April 15. If that doesnt happen a good possibility he will be a 3rd or even 4th round pick.

What exactly did he do to solidify himself?

Amari Rodgers with a meh pro day.
WR Amari Rodgers
Height: 5'9 1/2″

You apply the Pro Day to Combine adds and it's really ugly.
No measurements for alot of the Texas prospects like Samuel Cosmi but he did run a 4.84 and put up a surprising 36 225 reps with what we believe are long arms which is impressive.

I was interested in the measuables of Cosmi. he hasn't released it yet but I do believe he'll be Kirwans #2 OT prospect. He seems to love Cosmi and hate Mayfield; 2 OTs i often see ranked close together
