Pro Day Recap: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/news/recapping-a-busy-penn-state-pro-day/
Thirteen former Penn State Football players attended Pro Day on Friday in front of 32 NFL scouts, hoping to show that they're draftable prospects. For some, like potential top 10 pick Olu Fashanu, that is less of an uncertainty than others. On today's BWI Live Show, we're discussing the major winners and storylines that came from the morning workout.

Penn State Pro Day takeaways
On today's show we'll highlight the most interesting points from Penn State's Pro Day on Friday. We'll talk about the brief, but impressive performance that Chop Robinson put on for scouts in the three-cone drill and why that's important to his draft stock. We'll also discuss his comments about what type of player he thinks he is in the NFL.
Former Penn State cornerback Kalen King is a significant focus of offseason debate among fans. While some are reveling in his misfortune and bad performance this offseason, King remains confident in his skills. We'll discuss how he discussed his day and off-season after the event. Unsurprisingly, King still believes in himself.
“They [NFL teams] know my GPS times. I was at the Senior Bowl, and I was top-five fastest out there. So I’m a really a game speed guy. I can I really move well on the field. Not really combine testing,” he said.
What to do with Curtis Jacobs
The biggest surprise and most interesting player this offseason is linebacker Curtis Jacobs. The former Penn State defender has aced each portion of the offseason and put up impressive numbers at the Combine and Pro Day. So where does he fit in the NFL? We'll discuss what factors might lead him to be selected higher than some fans think, and lower than others.
Next, we'll talk about Fashanu's day doing field testing drills and the amount of attention he received from the assembled group. Will he slide into the middle of the first round like some analyst think?
Finally, we'll discuss Penn State safety and State College native Keaton Ellis. Ellis stood to gain the most of any player at Pro Day. Did he succeed? We'll break down his day.
