Virginia Tech outside linebacker-defensive end Jason Worilds turned in an impressive Pro Day workout today, running the 40-yard dash between 4.47 and 4.55 seconds for a 4.51 average.

The 6-foot-1, 254-pound pass rusher turned in a 4.07 in the 20-yard shuttle and a 9-10 broad jump.

Worilds performed defensive line drills for the Carolina Panthers

take the 4.4x with a grain of salt imo. as a vt guy, they have a super fast track and always well under their combine times. this number is impressive for sure, but i dont like the pro day numbers from any school over the combine numbers. at least at the combine you can see how a guy runs/looks compared to someone from another school. they are all on the same turf on the same day. yeah some guys have better than average days, others worse, but its as close to lining them up on hte field as we get post senior bowls.

that said at the combine worilds did have the fastest 10 yard split of any de. there is something to be said for that. he also was not asked to be just a pass rusher as in 08, he was asked to stay at home more to stop the run (orion martins job in 08). imo he is a classic tweener and likely a better fit in a 3-4 OLB role where you move him around as a pass rusher. he can play very well with his hand down. he is a little undersized as a DE, and doesnt have a really any strong pass rush moves. i do think he has more upside than tapp (an overachiever), and a little less than chris ellis (classic underachiever), 2 other DEs from VT.

i like brown as a pass rusher a lot more than worilds atm. worilds was the better run stuffer of the 2 in college. overall i think brown is a bit more athletic than worilds, and the better De down the line.

OMGZ!!! Hilee Taylorz v2.0!!!!!

that would be one willie young. worilds 1st 10 yards were the best at the combine for any DL (fastest 10 yard split of all DL). young may be lucky to get into round 5 or better at this point. worilds is likely a 3rd or higher.

so who is the true hilee 2.0???????

      Smitty on TMac

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
