Wyoming Pro Day

Per NFL Prospect analyst Gil Brandt:

Three teams were present to watch eight players work out indoors on FieldTurf at the Wyoming Pro Day.

RB Devin Moore (5-9, 187 pounds) ran a 4.37 and 4.35 in the 40-yard dash and posted a 10-foot, 9-inch broad jump, a 4.08 short shuttle, a 6.92 three-cone drill and 28 bench-press reps.

RB Wynel Seldon (5-11, 212 pounds) ran a 4.63 and 4.63 in the 40-yard dash and posted a 36-inch vertical, a 10-foot, 4-inch broad jump, a 4.22 short shuttle, a 7.22 three-cone drill and 21 bench-press reps.

OL Kyle Howard (6-5 1/2, 316 pounds) ran a 5.20 and 5.23 in the 40-yard dash and posted a 32-inch vertical, an 8-foot, 11-inch broad jump, a 4.81 short shuttle, a 7.79 three-cone drill and 24 bench-press reps.

Aside from Devin Moore, I highly doubt any of the other Wyoming prospects gets drafted. Devin Moore would be a great compliment and change of pace back, much akin to Felix Jones or Chris Johnson. He's an undersized and speedy back who also offers value as an electric return specialist and he'll probably be picked up around the 4th or 5th round.

Devin Moore Pro Day

In light of all the Pro Day coverage here's a news article that took place before the combine involving Wyoming's electrifying running back who was snubbed and did not get a Combine invite.

Per NFL Prospect analyst Gil Brandt:

Wyoming RB Devin Moore wasn’t invited to the NFL Scouting Combine, so he had to find another way to get his foot in the door.

Not only did he get in, but he had the first official workout in front of NFL team officials in Indianapolis.

Moore, who grew up in Indianapolis and attended high school there, held his own private “pro day” on Thursday at a sports-training facility near the airport. Fourteen teams attended the “off-campus” workout at which Moore ran the 40-yard dash in 4.43 and 4.41 seconds, had a 35-inch vertical jump and a 10-foot long jump, posted short-shuttle runs of 4.22 and 4.29 seconds and a 7.14-second cone drill, and did 27 repetitions on the bench press.

Moore’s 4.41-second 40 would have ranked fifth-best at last year’s combine among running backs. Moore, who was measured at 5-foot-9½ and weighed 190 pounds, is the all-time leading rusher in Wyoming history and was the Mountain West Conference rushing champion last season.
