LSU Pro Day

christian : 3/27/2024 10:30 am
Nabers, Thomas, and Daniels all reportedly will be measured and participate.

Giants according Wolfe had dinner with Nabers last night.

Live on NFL+ for those with access.
I think Daniels  
IchabodGiant : 3/27/2024 10:34 am : link
is going to kill it today. Any chance, if he does, that Chicago considers taking him #1?
 
christian : 3/27/2024 10:37 am : link
I'm 100% on Team Daniels.

I think if he weighs in at 220 and runs a sub 4.5, the talk for the next month is Williams or Daniels.

And based on the production and talent showcased, it's obvious the SEC/LSU worked with the players to skip the combine and display at the Pro Day.

My bet is the SEC produces a parallel TV event to compete with the combine soon.

#NYGiants contingent in full force at LSU Pro Day as expected. I’m told dinner with WR Malik Nabers last night and will meet with QB Jayden Daniels later today, per sources.


In some fantasy world DC falls in love in love with JJM and the Giants move up to 3 and get Daniels.

That would be amazing.

Maybe DC/NE both love JJM and/or Maye. We trade up to Arizona's spot for Daniels.

I read that he's planning to throw and not run. Nabers is said to be planning to run.

A friend of mine is in Baton Rouge right now. He said Daniels is only throwing. No other drills.

One way to take that is DC has made up their mind one way or another.

If number two was still in contention, running could push him over the edge.
Malik Nabers 42 inch vertical

Malik Nabers  
Big Rick in FL : 3/27/2024 11:50 am : link
With a 42 inch vertical to get the day started. I've heard he's gonna run low 4.3s and possibly high 4.2s.
 
christian : 3/27/2024 11:55 am : link
Nabers is legitimately in contention for first WR off the board.

But more importantly, if there are 2 no doubt blue chip WRs, this increases the Giants chances of moving to number 4.

Arizona could walk away with Nabers at 6, and get 70 + 2025 round one.
Daniels & Nabers both got measured  
Big Rick in FL : 3/27/2024 11:55 am : link
Daniels 6'3 and change. He weighed in at 210.

Not sure on Nabers height yet, but he weighed in at 199.

Surprised Daniels didn't put on a few vanity pounds, especially since he didn't run.
Nabers came in at  
Big Rick in FL : 3/27/2024 11:57 am : link
Exactly 6 foot. I thought he was going to be a bit shorter. Good sizes for him. Not sure how I feel about Daniels at 210 though.
 
christian : 3/27/2024 11:58 am : link
I think Daniels has assurance from DC he's number two.
Nabers  
Big Rick in FL : 3/27/2024 12:01 pm : link
10'9" broad jump

Good stuff - thanks. I really wish JD would run just to validate what I think he is capable of running. Which is 4.4+.

I continue to shake my head that JD's name isn't more discussed at the #1 overall pick. You just can't teach that type of athleticism and explosion.

LSU QB Jayden Daniels and WR Malik Nabers did in fact get weighed and measured for scouts at Pro Day this morning in Baton Rouge. Daniels came in at 6'3" (and change) and 210 pounds. Nabers came in a 6'0" and 199 pounds.

Both declined to be weighed or measured at the combine.
 
christian : 3/27/2024 12:08 pm : link
Nabers as expected is an inch taller and the same weight as Beckham when he came out.

I think he's going to have a similar impact coming out of the gate.
hmmm wondering why Daniels wont run  
blueblood : 3/27/2024 12:09 pm : link
but maybe not worth the risk for him tweaking something

It's not too bad. He'll probably put on another 10-15 lbs over the next year.

Knowing his athletic ability is a differentiator, my guess is he knows where he's going.

I'm not worried about the 210 if that's his actual weight. I'm worried that it's BS weight he put on for his Pro Day that he will lose once it's over.


Also I haven't seen it mentioned. Albert Breer didn't say he was in attendance yet, but Daboll canceled his flight home from Orlando today. I'm assuming he will be at the LSU Pro Day with Schoen.

If AZ was open for business before, they've got one of the dancing balloon guys outside now.

The Giants are in prime position to move up to number 4 and AZ is assured to get MHJr or Nabers.

BTJR can always fall back on his forty at the Combine where he blazed a 4.34 at 210 pounds.

I'm on an island by myself, but I think he's the best WR prospect in this draft. He's just starting to creep into his potential.
Chargers may be more reluctant now  
jeff57 : 3/27/2024 12:29 pm : link
To trade down with the Vikings and pass on the chance to get Nabers.

He is overshadowed a bit playing next to Nabers. The situation reminds me of Jefferson who came out, who was overshadowed by Chase. Like the previous duo, I think both will be excellent NFL players.

I'm not sure if Pro Day times are considered off anymore. I believe people used to had 0.06 to a Pro Day 40. So a 4.41

I like Thomas and would love to see him in round 2 (assuming we go QB in round 1), but I don't think he will last that long. You?

Zero chance he makes it to round 2. He is WR4 and super talented. I love him, but not as much as bw hahaha. Any other draft and he is a sure fire top 10... This draft is so amazing.
