Denard Robinson has been one of the most intriguing NFL prospects this offseason. He is one of the few quarterback prospects in the history of the NFL that has been completely and 100% willing to change positions in order to somehow make it to the NFL.
From what it sounded like, he did well during his press conference and during his interview after his day at the Combine had been completed. Unfortunately for Denard, his 40-yard-dash time wasn’t great, and he didn’t seem too thrilled with his vertical jump. When he was told his unofficial 4.34 forty had been changed to an official 4.43, he said that he wasn’t happy and that he is supposed to be faster than that. His Pro Day has now become very important. His vertical jump was pretty solid, he posted a 36.5 inch vertical and his broad jump was a solid 10’3″. His three cone drill time was not very good, clocking in at 7.09 but posted a pretty solid 20 yard shuttle of a 4.22; Denard didn’t bench press because of his elbow.
