University of Tennessee pro day

Defensive end Robert Ayers has flown up draft boards since the Senior Bowl. He used a strong performance at that college all-star game to make himself potentially a top-15 pick. NFL Network analyst Mike Mayock has him rated as the fifth best overall prospect in this entire class. Lions defensive line coach Bob Karmelowicz, Bengals defensive line coach Jay Hayes and Panthers defensive line coach Brian Baker were all on hand to take a look at the 6-foot-3 3/8, 272-pound Ayers

Pittsburgh's pro day

Pittsburgh RB LeSean McCoy was unable to perform in drills at the NFL Scouting Combine last month due to a lingering illness. With that behind him, he did a full workout at Pittsburgh’s pro day on March 17.

Along with 14 other prospects, He ran indoors on FieldTurf in front of 26 team representatives, including Steelers coach Mike Tomlin and Panthers coach John Fox.

Perhaps most importantly to McCoy, Eagles running backs coach Ted Williams and Jaguars running backs coach Kennedy Pola were on hand.

McCoy (5-10 5/8, 204) put on a decent showing for them, posting a 4.50 and 4.51 in the 40, a 29-inch vertical jump, an 8-foot, 11-inch broad jump, a 4.18 short shuttle, a 6.82 three-cone drill and 17 bench press reps.

Here are the other notable prospects from Pittsburgh Pro Day:

LB Scott McKillop (6-1, 245 pounds) stood on all his combine numbers, but did position drills with Bills linebackers coach Matt Sheldon and Eagles linebackers coach Bill Shuey in attendance.

WR Derek Kinder (6-0¼, 202 pounds) ran a 4.54 and 4.60 in the 40, had a 36½-inch vertical jump, a 9-foot, 1-inch broad jump, a 4.10 short shuttle, a 6.64 three-cone drill and did 12 bench presses.

FB Conredge Collins (5-11¼, 224 pounds) ran a 4.72 and 4.64 in the 40, had a 34½-inch vertical jump, a 9-foot broad jump, a 4.18 short shuttle, a 6.93 three-cone drill and did 24 bench press reps.

OL C.J. Davis (6-2, 308 pounds) ran a 5.55 and 5.61 in the 40, had a 24½-inch vertical jump, a 4.62 short shuttle, a 7.64 three-cone drill and did 23 bench press reps.

P Dave Brytus (6-3¾, 223 pounds) did position drills.

S Eric Thatcher (5-9 1/8, 200 pounds) ran a 4.71 and 4.75 in the 40, had a 37-inch vertical jump, a 9-foot, 11-inch broad jump, a 4.25 short shuttle, a 6.97 three-cone drill and did 16 bench press reps

First Fox goes to the Pitt pro day every year because he has a lot of friends in the Pittsburgh area and the team. Last year he actually was looking at someone. The team is looking at Ayers because he is a top DE this year. But more than likely, unless we trade peppers which might not happen, dont have a chance at getting late in the 2nd

      Baldinger on the 2026 LB Class

      As long as we have DB, odd man fronts are the way to go for us. We want to line DB up between the guard and tackle (4i-tech) because of how quick he is off the snap and his punch on the guard off the snap. If anyone is wondering why he pretty much has to be doubled (or combo blocked) just about every snap, its because he is lined up in that spot in our odd man front. If we change to an even front, it becomes a lot harder to have DB play the 4i-tech.  Not sure if I would say Evero likes smaller NTs - I wouldn't call Bobby Brown a small NT by any sense. I think we run a 1-tech NT, so they are usually getting double teamed (or combo blocked) by concept alone. I actually think Bobby Brown did a pretty good job of eating blocks and being positionally sound on most runs at him (not his fault we were rocking ass LBs last year + Wharton being god awful). The bigger problem came on the toss plays/outside runs where DB wasn't able to blow it up in the backfield (i.e., the Bills game). Lloyd should help with the run D and getting a rangy LB in the draft will definitely help. There are also some good 1-tech DTs (and 0-techs) that can be instant day 1 starters for us in the draft.
