Per NFL.com writer Steve Wyche:"West Virginia’s Pro Day has drawn representatives from 25 NFL teams, most to get a deeper evaluation of multi-faceted quarterback Pat White.
White did not participate in any of the strength or running drills, choosing to stand on his draft combine performances in those realms.
Several teams came here today planning on watching White throw and partake in receiver drills, since he could have to transition to wideout in the NFL. White told me before the field drills started what he has been saying all along — that he planned only to throw, but that he would run routes upon request. Well, after he finished throwing, it turned out that’s all he did. In fact, the majority of the people who were there to watch White left after he threw and weren’t waiting to see him do anything but throw."
My opinion on this matter is it looks as though teams are going to be keeping Pat White at QB if they couldn't care less about his drills at WR, some teams might use him as a Wildcat QB and others may use him like Antwan Randle El as a wide receiver with the ability to throw bombs. But his versatility should raise his draft stock and put him in early 2nd day contention.
