Pro Days: Oregon

Oregon's pro day was held on Wednesday in front of representatives from 22 teams.

The top performer was unquestionably DE/LB Nick Reed. Oregon's leading sack artist the past two seasons posted an impressive 4.71 in the forty and did 24 reps on the bench. Reed is undersized for a defensive end and doesn't have enough experience at linebacker. However, he's a workout warrior that could climb up the draft boards and catch on somewhere as a pass rush specialist.

Patrick Chung chose to sit on most of numbers from the combine. He did, however, do positional drills and was reportedly impressive. He remains a potential 2nd or 3rd round prospect.

Running back Jeremiah Johnson slightly improved his forty time, climbing from 4.62 at the combine to 4.56. He clearly doesn't have elite speed, but I still like his potential in the pros. He's shifty, but has enough size to run between the tackles.
