According to PatsFans.com , State held their Pro Day for NFL scouts March 30. Here’s what the say:
MISSISSIPPI STATE (March 30th) senior defensive tackle RONALD FIELDS ran between 4.97 and 5.02 in the 40… some had him as fast as 4.92… 32″ vertical… 8′3″ broad jump and also did 22 reps of 225 pounds… weighed in at 6022, 297 pounds… decided to shed some of the extra weight he put on while training for the Combine… increased his vertical and ran a faster 40-time at the Pro Day… received additional interest from Minnesota and San Diego… also been closely evaluated by Miami… has established himself in the “Second” group of defensive tackles, especially since he can play NT or DT… will be drafted higher than some expect… senior offensive tackle DAVID STEWART pulled his left hamstring on his first 40-yard dash attempt… no time was recorded… 34″ vertical… 8′9″ broad jump and also did 28 reps of 225 pounds… weighed in at 6064, 318 pounds… also did positional drills for the three offensive line coaches in attendance… most teams will have to go with 5.25/5.30 range 40-time for him… senior fullback DARNELL JONES ran between 4.92 and 4.97 in the 40… 4.64 short shuttle… 32.5″ vertical… 9′2″ broad jump and also did 23 reps of 225 pounds… has received additional attention from Chicago, Cleveland and several other teams looking at more conventional, blocker first type fullbacks… senior offensive guard WILL ROGERS (#69) ran between 5.18 and 5.22 in the 40… 30″ vertical… 8′1″ broad jump and also did 21 reps of 225 pounds… weighed in at 6036, 320 pounds… has shed some of his extra pounds, as he was between 330-339 pounds last summer… also did positional drills for scouts/coaches… started at right guard next to tackle David Stewart… senior running back FRED REID ran between 4.43 and 4.48 in the 40… 4.28 short shuttle… 6.82 three-cone… 38.5″ vertical… 9′7″ broad jump and also did 15 reps of 225 pounds… weighs 5086, 189 pounds… has some potential an all-purpose back… senior safety SLOVAKIA GRIFFITH (#25) ran between 4.49 and 4.55 in the 40… 4.52 short shuttle… 36″ vertical… 9′5″ broad jump and also did 18 reps of 225 pounds… weighs 5106, 197 pounds… better athlete than on-field performer… has played some at both safety spots, but would have to make a name for himself on special teams… senior wide receiver MCKINLEY SCOTT (#1) ran between 4.52 and 4.58 in the 40… 4.35 short shuttle… 7.02 three-cone… 37″ vertical… 10′2″ broad jump… weighs 5112, 195 pounds… senior punter JARED COOK (#43) did positional work for scouts/coaches… had a very steady career, but does not stand out in any one category… hang times vary and does not show the strongest of legs from week to week… weighs 5093, 188 pounds… several other senior prospects worked out, but none are considered to be true NFL prospects at this time… all times were recorded on an outdoor turf-type surface; there was some wind, but players ran both with and against the wind.
