Utah State Pro Day

20 NFL teams showed up to watch some of the Utah State prospects work out. There were only two names that stood out including a tight end who is drawing comparisons to Washington Redskin All Pro Chris Cooley. Lets hope he's a little more aware when photographing himself with his playbook.

Here are the results courtesy of NFL.com:

TE Rob Myers (6-3 1/8, 238 pounds), missed the entire 2008 season due to injury but was still invited to the NFL combine. Myers ran 4.63 and 4.58 in the 40, though he strained his left hamstring running the second one. He had a 30½-inch vertical with a 9-foot, 9-inch broad jump and times of 4.23 in the short shuttle and 7.15 in the three-cone drill. He did 22 reps on the bench press.

S De’von Hall (6-2 3/4, 212 pounds) ran times of 4.53 and 4.48 in the 40 with an impressive 39-inch vertical and a 10-foot, 2-inch broad jump. He had times of 4.24 in the short shuttle and 6.95 in the three-cone drill and put up 26 reps on the bench press.

Both Utah State athletes tested well and could see themselves drafted based on potential alone but it won't be until the late second day.
