The pre-NFL Draft process is not one size fits all and there are multiple opportunities for prospects to express their potential. The NFL Scouting Combine may not have gone as desired for some but fortunately there is still time to change the narrative at their respective pro days.
Here are a handful of prospects who need to turn in good pro days:
TE Brock Bowers, Georgia
Bowers has been slipping in mock draft projections and, while positional value is the cause, he could prop himself back up by showcasing just how unique he is at the tight end position. Bowers is a really smooth athlete who can stretch the field and put stress on opposing defenses. If he can come out and test like an elite athlete, then his projections should level off and he should be picked where his talent suggests he should.
WR Malachi Corley, Western Kentucky
It was a record-setting day for wide receivers at the NFL Combine. Corley chose not to do any of the athletic testing. While Rome Odunze, Brian Thomas Jr., Adonai Mitchell, Xavier Worthy, Ricky Pearsall, Ladd McConkey and others were improving their stock, Corley was sidelined. College football’s yards after the catch king now has the burden of proving himself in a deep wide receiver class to reassert himself among that group.
RB Audric Estime, Notre Dame
Estime’s workout in Indianapolis has been one of the most difficult to make sense of. The only real issue with his time in Indianapolis was the 4.71 seconds 40-yard dash. Running backs who run that slow often do not find success in the NFL; yes, there are exceptions. His speed does not look like an issue on game film, but he could really help himself by getting that time down.
