Rob Rang of NFLDraftscout.com wrote an article for CBS Sportsline on the players who are rising and falling during the pro day workouts. Darrelle Revis, who has reported on previously, is one of the biggest risers, along with JaMarcus Russell. We disagree with the assertion that Jamaal Anderson hurt himself that much with his workout. Slightly better numbers would have helped his stock slightly, but he is still no worse than the 3rd or 4th DEs on almost every board.

Here some under the radar players who helped themselves:

Will Herring, Auburn - A SS/OLB tweener type player, Herring posted a 4.57 40 and an outstanding short shuttle of 3.99. Only one player at the combine (Sabby Piscitelli) ran a faster shuttle. Herring is 229 pounds and may be better suited for a team that would allow him to play an in the box safety position eventually. He is a second day player.

Dante Rosario, Oregon - Another tweener, a FB/TE type player, Rosario had a solid workout, showing great agility for a 240 lb player, running his short shuttle in 4.21 and a sub 7.00 3 cone drill. Rosario is an interesting prospect for an H-back type position.

Brandon Myles, West Virginia - Myles, one of the biggest snubs of the 2007 NFL Combine, posted very good numbers at WVU’s pro day. He ran his 40 in 4.41 and had a 10 foot 11 inch broad jump. Myles projects as a round 5 or 6 WR.
