Combine Studs
- LaRon Landry - Landry was one of the combine's stars, putting up a 4.35 40 (best among safeties) and proving that he deserves to be the draft's highest-picked safety.
- Michael Griffin- Griffin had a much stronger combine workout than Nelson, and is ahead of Nelson on some draft boards. Griffin is a first-rounder for sure, and could be a top 20 pick.
- Sabby Piscatelli- Piscatelli helped his draft stock with a strong combine, and he is a quite possible first-day selection.
Combine Duds
- J.D Nelson- A 4.87 for a safety just isn't going to cut it, and Nelson probably will not be drafted.
- Michael Johnson- Johnson may have hurt his stock with a dissapointing 4.63 in the 40, but is a likely fourth-round selection.
