In a draft that's bursting at the seams with talented defensive linemen, someone will inevitably slip through the cracks. South Florida prospect Terrell McClain wanted to make sure he would not be the one and gave scouts something to think about after his pro-day performance. Thirty teams showed up for Thursday's workout, including the Chicago Bears brain trust (general manager Jerry Angelo, head coach Lovie Smith and defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli) and New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick.
McClain, who tipped the scales at 297 at the combine, ran his 40 in the low 4.8s, an improvement of about .15 from Indianapolis. His work in position drills was outstanding. McClain was smooth in all his movements and showed a violent hand punch during bag drills. His workout today and performances at the combine and during Shrine week could seal McClain as a top 60 selection.
Several draft sleepers left a positive impression on scouts:
• Middle Tennessee State defender Jamari Lattimore turned a few heads and answered questions about his speed. Lattimore, who posted 15 tackles for loss and 11.5 sacks as a senior turned in a solid workout in 48-degree weather. He measured 6 feet, 2.5 inches and 235 pounds, posted 40 times which clocked between 4.68 to 4.71 seconds and ran the three cone in 7.04 seconds. The latter mark would put him in the top half dozen results of all the outside linebackers at the combine. Lattimore looked solid in position drills and could now get consideration in the late rounds.
