Per NFL Prospect analyst Gil Brandt:
Prospects worked out indoors on FieldTurf in front of 50 scouts at the Oklahoma Pro Day. Vikings coach Brad Childress, Vikings Vice President of Player Personnel Rick Spielman, Detroit offensive line coach Pat Morris, Buffalo offensive line coach Sean Kugler and Miami offensive line coach Dave DeGuglielmo were among those in attendance.
Before I get into the notable players, I would like to commend Oklahoma Director of Sports Enhancement Jerry Schmidt (known as coach Smitty) for his excellent job in organizing this highly efficient pro day. He has this thing planned like a fine-tooth comb. Scouts love to come here because the whole coaching staff is there, the facilities are great and coach Smitty runs stuff off like clock work. In fact, he timed things so well, that the J&R’s barbecue that was ordered for scouts came 30 minutes after the workout was done.
Still, there’s no doubt that every scout left five pounds heavier.
On to the prospects:
OL Duke Robinson measured in at 6-foot-5 1/4, 330 pounds. He stood on his 40 times from combine. He posted a 31 1/2-inch vertical, a 8-foot, 3-inch broad jump, a 5.0-second short shuttle and 20 bench press reps. He also did positional drills.
WR Joaquin Iglesias checked in at 6-0 7/8, 203 pounds. He stood on all of his combine numbers, but looked very good catching the ball in the positional drills.
OL Phil Loadholt came in at 6-7 7/8, 332 pounds. He ran 5.45 in the 40-yard dash twice, had a 28 1/2-inch vertical jump, an 8-foot, 9-inch broad jump, a 4.77 short shuttle, an 8.14 three-cone drill and put up 26 bench press reps. He looked very good in the drills and his lifts have to be treated relatively since it is harder for a taller guy with longer arms to throw the bar up.
C Jon Cooper measured in at 6-2 1/8, 290 pounds. He ran a 5.0 flat and 5.03 in the 40, had a 31 1/2-inch vertical jump, an 8-foot, 9-inch broad jump, a 4.50 short shuttle, a 7.43 three-cone drill and had 32 bench press lifts. Despite his slender frame (for a center), he is a very good player.
DB/LB Nick Harris checked in at 6-2 7/8, 232 pounds. He ran 4.83 twice in the 40, had a 4.23 short shuttle and a 7.0 three-cone drill. Some people think he might be a linebacker, but he worked out as a safety. He’s an amazing guy as his backpedal is as fast as his 40.
OL Brandon Walker came in at 6-2 7/8, 306 pounds. He had a 34 1/2-inch vertical jump, a 9-foot, 2-inch broad jump and ran a 5.18 40. He also had a 4.88 short shuttle, an 8.20 three-cone dril and stood on his bench press reps from the combine.
