Along with spring football, this is the time of year that features pro days at schools all over the country.

It’s a last chance to impress NFL scouts with the advantage of working out in familiar surroundings and, in some cases, an opportunity to make up for a sub-par showing (or no showing at all) at the combine.

Texas A&M hasn’t had its pro day yet (April 6), but let’s have a look around the rest of the SEC for takeaways from this year’s batch, in order of their workout date:

VANDERBILT

The Commodores were the first league school to hold their pro day on March 3, and the team’s only junior to declare for the draft, Stephen Weatherly, put on a show for the scouts in attendance.

“They liked what they saw. They said, ‘You did a good job at the combine and a good job at Pro Day,'” Weatherly told The Tennessean. “One thing people told me (Thursday) is that I moved really well for 264 (pounds and 6 feet, 5 inches).”

His future position in the NFL is a bit cloudy, as teams debate whether he’s a rush end in a 4-3 or an outside linebacker in a 3-4. Showing off enough agility to handle either spot only helps him come draft time.

KENTUCKY

Middle linebacker Josh Forrest, who led the Wildcats with 93 tackles last fall, was hoping to make up for a less-than-stellar performance at the NFL Combine, reportedly due to a stomach bug, when Kentucky held its pro day March 4.

He certainly improved his 40-yard dash time, posting a 4.75 compared to the 4.91 he ran in Indianapolis. He did not attempt the bench press again after tallying 11 reps at 225 pounds at the combine — no other linebacker had fewer than 15.

He’s working on that, he told reporters at pro day, and his coach thinks he can still be a productive player on the next level.

“I know he has the ability to play at the next level and hopefully his workouts will help him move up in the draft,” Kentucky coach Mark Stoops told the Louisville Courier-Journal. “I’m fairly confident he’ll be on a roster next year.”

AUBURN

Blake Countess didn’t get an invite to the NFL Combine, but if he had, he probably would have graded out as one of the better defensive backs on hand.

Countess posted the fastest 40-yard dash time of anyone at the Tigers’ March 7 pro day (4.49) and also had the best vertical leap (36.5 inches).

Toss in a whopping 22 reps of 225 pounds — which would have been the most among defensive backs at the combine — and the graduate transfer from Michigan had himself quite a day.

“To not get an invite (to the combine) is definitely a motivator,” he told AL.com. “You have to control what you can control and just keep moving forward.”

ALABAMA

Sometimes, being a good teammate is enough to get scouts’ attention.

Quarterback Jake Coker needed to have a good pro day to raise his draft profile, but a few of his expected targets weren’t able to participate when it came time for him to throw on March 9.

Derrick Henry, the reigning Heisman Trophy winning running back, stepped in and ran routes for Coker’s workout.

“One thing that happened is that when (Coker) threw, Derrick Henry jumped in there,” Phil Savage, executive director of the Senior Bowl, told Al.com. “Essentially, there were no running back coaches there. They didn’t put Henry through a position workout, so he actually ran routes as a receiver and actually looked OK doing it and actually caught the ball well.

“So in an odd sort of way it really helped him I think. I think it was impressive that he put himself in that position to help a teammate, and people walked away being impressed.”

MISSISSIPPI STATE

Sometimes, guys come out of nowhere to grab headlines at a pro day. In Starkville, Tautvydas (T.K.) Kieras came out of the Bulldogs’ track program.

Kieras, the school record holder in the discus, has never played a down of football. Not that he had much of a chance to, growing up in Lithuania. Still, standing 6-foot-3 and weighing 271 pounds, he showed off the same sort of athleticism that NFL scouts love at the Bulldogs’ March 10 pro day.

He ran a 4.69 40-yard dash, jumped 35 inches and had about the same broad jump as corner back Taveze Calhoun. He projects as a pass rushing defensive end, linebacker.

The Chiefs signed him after his workout.

LSU

There aren’t many situations where a player’s speed in a 40-yard sprint comes into play, but it’s still a vital measure when teams try to separate draft picks.

Outside linebacker Deion Jones ran a 4.59 40-yard dash at the combine, but trimmed that all the way down to a 4.38 and a 4.40 at the Tigers’ March 14 pro day.

How did he do it? By keeping his eyes open, apparently. He started the run in Indianapolis with his eyes closed, causing him to veer a bit left and right.

“I was psyched out by the atmosphere at the combine,” he told the Times-Picayune. “I was surprised (by the times). I was shooting for 4.4, so I needed that. I gave my all.”

ARKANSAS

Speed matters, but so does strength. Especially if you’re a tight end like the Razorbacks’ Hunter Henry.

Henry struggled a bit with the bench press at the combine, managing only 14 reps and drawing criticism on his form.

He upped that tally to 21 at Arkansas’ pro day on March 16 and added a 4.68 40-yard dash.

Henry was already projected to be the first tight end off the board at this year’s draft. Numbers like this could make his name be called sooner.

GEORGIA

After missing the combine with a hamstring injury, Leonard Floyd was hoping to impress scouts at Georgia’s March 16 pro day.

Instead, he had to cut his day short after falling ill.

“It wasn’t an injury,” Floyd told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “It was more that I ate something for breakfast, and I had a messed up stomach. I couldn’t keep going.”

Scouts are already well aware of his talent, and he’ll have other chances to impress at private workouts.

“Private workouts are very helpful as well,” Atlanta Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff told the paper. “That’s why we send coaches and scouts out to a lot of the pro days. Then we schedule our private workouts with certain players that we feel we need to get some more work in. We drill down on our own approach and our own drills.”

FLORIDA

Corner back Vernon Hargreaves III is a lock to be a first-round pick, but safety Keanu Neal is pushing hard to join him there.

He improved both his 40 time (4.59) and shuttle run (4.32) and retained his reputation as a hard hitting safety during Florida’s March 23 pro day.

Draft analysts are taking notice.

MISSOURI

Linebacker Kentrell Brothers led college football with 152 tackles last season, but his lack of size for the position and rough time at the combine were hurting his pro prospects.

That was until he stole the show at the Tigers’ March 23 pro day.

Brothers lowed his 40 time to 4.73, added three inches to his vertical jump and put up a personal best 19 reps at 225 pounds on the bench.

“It felt a lot better to be at Mizzou,” Brothers told the Kansas City Star. “You’re not as stressed. It’s like that home-field advantage. You’ve got your teammates around you, so it’s kind of like practice. I was a lot more comfortable. I think everyone was.”

OLE MISS

With three first-round prospects (Laremy Tunsil, Laquon Treadwell and Robert Nkemdiche) on hand, the story out of Oxford for the Rebels’ March 28 pro day was just how far the program has come under coach Hugh Freeze.

For example, when those three players arrived in 2013, not a single Rebel had his named called at the NFL Draft earlier that spring.

“This was a great day for Ole Miss football,” Freeze told reporters. “Our program is taking another step in our journey. … We have a beautiful place to showcase (The Manning Center), and it looks really good on TV.”

Treadwell, who didn’t run at the combine, ran a 4.65 40 at the pro day.

TENNESSEE

Safety Brian Randolph helped himself quite a bit at Tennessee’s pro day on Wednesday.

He put up 31 reps of 225 pounds in the bench press — nine more than any other defensive back at the combine — and ran the team’s fastest time on pro day with a 4.4 40-yard dash.

It was quite a day for him, and one that’s sure to help his draft profile.

SOUTH CAROLINA

All eyes were on Pharoh Cooper on Wednesday, and the junior posted 4.61 and 4.69 40-yard dash times at the Gamecocks’ pro day. He projects as a slot receiver in the NFL, and is projected as a second-round draft pick.
