Didn't see a stickied thread for pro day results, but figured people could post past, current and future results in here if they'd like.

In any event, I didnt intend to bury the lead, after a hamstring tweak kept him out of combine drills, Israel Abanikanda and Pitt will be having their pro day tomorrow. I am thinking a 4.37 40, or a real smoothhhh looking 4.43.

Here is a list of all pro day dates https://www.profootballnetwork.com/nfl-pro-day-schedule-2023/

35 inch vert and an unofficial 4.41 40 so far. Oh and a bubble butt that im sure Jerry would say looks great in the shower.

i stand corrected. it was a 41 inch vert. This kid is so obviously a smooth, athletic beast at the rb postion. A few other Pitt prospects showing out, too.

My favorite RB target in the draft. Was thinking he could be a day 3 option but wouldn’t be surprised if someone takes him as early as the 2nd.

Any more updates on the 40? He’s bumped up from 3rd to 2nd. Might not even make it to Dallas #58

I’ve been saying for a little while now that I think Izzy could be the 3rd RB drafted. I think his upside is a good bit higher than Charbonnet and the measurables and production are there

Yeah, outside of the two first rounders - this is my guy !
Make this happen, and I'll be a happy man. Only problem will be now that he's had a healthy pro-day. He may start rising up team boards. At # 90 he would be a fabulous pick, but will he still be there.
It's like people wanting Avila at # 58, chances of still being on the board then are slim.

Some of the projections on Abanikanda seemed off. Every time he touched the ball he scooted.

His actual numbers (4.3 40 and 41" vertical) definitely match how he plays.

Pick 90 may not be enough to get him.

He reminds me of the 49ers RB's that Shanahan prefers. One cut and gone.
