2 of the highest profile schools in the nation held their pro days today and here are some highlights from it.

***UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS PRO DAY***

Colt McCoy, Lamarr Houston, and Sergio Kindle chose to sit on their measurments and testing from the combine and only participated in drills.

Earl Thomas - The lead story is Colt McCoy but you guys know how much I've been pumping Earl Thomas and hoping he falls to the Cowboys.  After today I wouldn't count on 26 teams passing on him.  Thomas turned in a 4.35 40 and looked very good in his DB Drills

Colt McCoy - Looked fantastic in passing drills.  Was a perfect 60-60, and showed great drive and touch on deep and intermediate throws.

Jordan Shipley - Shipley tried to improve his combine 40 time and didn't improve it that much with a 4.55.  The book on Shipley anyhow is that he's a great route runner and pas catcher.

Charlie Tanner - Most don't know about Charlie Tanner and he was an inconsistent player at Offensive guard but he tested extremely well with a 38 inch vertical and 36 bench reps.  Probably wont be drafted but is a guy to keep an eye on.

Sergio Kindle - Didn't run but looked good as a pass rusher

Roddrick Muckelroy - Muck might be a guy the Cowboys could like as a late pick at inside backer.  A very underrated prospect.

Lamarr Houston - Lamarr stood on his combine stats and took part in the drills and impressed with his ability to move in space and drop his hips.


***USC PRO DAY***

Taylor Mays - Mays stood on combine times and did the DB drills where he looked improved and caught the ball well.  Definitely a guy I'm looking forward to following.  He's as intriguing as Tebow in this draft.

Everson Griffen - The Outside linebacker/Defensive End ran and impressed scouts in all tests

Stafon Johnson - recovering from the dropped weight bar on his neck Johnson ran a 4.62 and projects to be a power back

Charles Brown - Had 20 bench reps at 225 and ran a 5.25 40.  Keep an eye on him as a second round target for the Cowboys at Offensive Tackle.
