The reviews on Dante Fowler have been positive, as he looked fluid and moved well during position drills. It was a much better performance today than the Combine, which was below par.
Fowler will be meeting with the Jacksonville Jaguars tonight, Tennessee Titans tomorrow and the Atlanta Falcons this weekend.
I'm also told the Tampa Bay Bucs have shown a lot of interest in defensive tackle Leon Orr and are expected to schedule a work out and/or visit with him.
Offensive lineman Chaz Green was disappointing. I'm told he was poorly conditioned and looked gassed early on. At points, coaches pulled him from the workout. On his behalf, I'm told it was a very hot day and a long workout in which many of the 10 offensive line coaches on hand stepped in and ran their own drills.
Add the St. Louis Rams to the teams that had offensive line coaches on hand today.
I failed to mention that despite a pectoral strain, Max Garcia completed 30 reps on the bench, which impressed scouts. Garcia did the majority of position drills at center and just a few snaps at guard and was impressive in all of them. Some now grade him as the No. 2 center in the draft after Hroniss Grasu of Oregon.
Accolades continue for D.J. Humphries, who oozed athleticism in position drills. He displayed excellent feet, balance and fluid hips. The feeling leaving the workout is Humphries has solidified himself as a bottom of Round 1 selection.
As described to me, tackle Trenton Brown is all "limbs and legs" but little in the way of balance or coordinated movement. His massive frame will likely push him into the last round of the draft.
Despite his seemingly poor conditioning, there was a lot of intrigue over Chaz Green. I'm told several offensive line coaches took him to the side and worked him one-on-one.
Additional sources confirmed to top notch performance of Dante Fowler Jr. He looked especially good dropping into coverage, then moving in space. He easily covered a lot of area on the field, quickly moving in reverse as well as laterally.
More on Chaz Green.
As stated earlier, there's a bunch of intrigue over Green and it's understandable. When healthy and hitting on all cylinders, his game film is top notch. I've always felt had Green been able to stay on the field and play to his level of ability, he was top-100 material.
That being the case, he received a ton of interest over the past two days.
Yesterday, Green met individually with the Dallas Cowboys, New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Bucs, San Diego Chargers and Carolina Panthers. Today, he's meeting with the Philadelphia Eagles and Houston Texans.
Green's visit list in the next week included official trips to the Dallas Cowboys, Buffalo Bills, Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Bucs.
In a positive sign, linebacker Neiron Ball timed 4.52 to 4.59 seconds in the 40. Considering he's not even six months removed from micro-fracture surgery, that's a significant accomplishment for Ball, who'll return to Indianapolis for the combine medical recheck at the middle of this month.
