Illinois Pro Day

Off goes the shirt... essentially how the Illinois Pro Day can be summed up as numerous scouts and a couple defensive back coaches were in attendance to watch Vontae Davis tear it up topless... so scandalous.

Here are the results from NFL.com and my main main GB-Ice.

CB Vontae Davis (5-foot-11 5/8, 201 pounds) He ran a 4.40 in the 40, had a 37.5" vertical, jump and a 6.80 three-cone drill. He kept the rest of his workout drill numbers from the combine and apparently he looked really good doing the defensive back position drills.

DE Will Davis (6-2 1/8, 260 pounds) ran a 4.86 and 4.89 in the 40, had a 34" vertical, a 9'10" broad jump, a 4.45 short shuttle and a 7.15 three-cone drill.

OT Xavier Fulton had both shoulders operated on the Monday after the combine and was not present. There is no word when he will work out.

Surgery may have killed Fulton's stock as it is unknown when he will be ready to work out or even be a contributing factor his first year in the league. A team may take a flier on him later because of his upside but it doesn't bode well for the converted defensive lineman.
