We'll have live updates from Pro Day during the morning and afternoon here for you. Things are supposed to run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sounds like there will be a ton of media on hand for it, and even more NFL personnel.
Nick O'Leary is not working out with a hamstring injury.
Check back here throughout the day for updates from the staff. We'll keep this updated and on the front page.
TV Info[/B]: Both ESPNU and ESPN3.com reportedly will start broadcasting at 10 a.m. At noon NFL Network will start broadcasting live from FSU.
8 PM: A few other unofficial results:
P.J. Williams - 41.5 inch vertical and 11'2" broad jump. There are reports that one scout even timed his 40 at 4.37 seconds. That would be a huge improvement over his 4.57 time at the NFL Combine. But most had him timed in the 4.4 range which is still very good.
Kevin Haplea - Reportedly a 4.67 unofficial time in the 40. If true, that would be really fast for him
Ronald Darby - 41 inch vertical and a 11'3.5" broad jump.
Mario Edwards weighed in at 272 pounds!
1:47 - That's it. Winston is done throwing, and it looks like the whole thing is wrapping up. Sounds like he had about 8-10 incompletions in his workout, which went about an hour. Gene and Ira should have stuff for you later today.
1:34 - Jameis is still throwing. I don't have an exact number on how many throws he's made or completions/drops (online broadcast has cut to commercial a couple times), but there have been at least three or four drops. This is a very thorough workout at a Pro Day. He's done stuff under center, in shotgun, with a simulated rush, on the move, in just about every situation you could think of. Moving into goal line throws now.
12:48 - Winston's workout is under weigh. Expected to make 90-100 throws, which would be on the high side in a normal workout but is really a lot for a guy who threw, and threw well, at the combine.
12:39 - Guys have been doing positional drills now. Kind of hard to tell who's doing well and what scouts are paying attention to in these from the broadcast. Jameis should begin throwing shortly.
11:51 - Jimbo said on the broadcast that this is the largest Pro Day he's ever been a part of. Last year at FSU was huge obviously, and some of his at LSU had a ton of attention as well.
There was also an interesting interview with George Whitfield, the "QB Guru" who's on College Gameday that has worked with Andrew Luck and Cam Newton before. Asked what Jameis has been working on, he said "Refinement." Then stopped for a second. He pointed out that Jameis, in any other year, would be in baseball season now, so they're using this extra practice time to sharpen up his footwork and throwing motion. He said he's a natural at both and is very good, but there's still some room for improvement.
Winston is scheduled to throw at 12:45 but they've mentioned a couple times that things are moving a little ahead of schedule.
11:41 - Broadcast mentioned that PJ Williams ran a 4.48 or a 4.49 today, which is an improvement by about a tenth of a second over his combine time.
11:17 - Bench Press reps:
Bobby Hart - 22
Josue Matias 21
Tre Jackson - 20
Eddie Goldman - 19
Desmond Hollin - 19
Christian Green - 16
Ronald Darby - 15 (got 12 in Indianapolis)
Scooter Haggins - 12
Rashad Gholston - 11
10:59 - Rashad Greene measured in at 5-11.5, 177 today. At the combine he was measured at 5-11, 182.
10:48 - They've moved on to the three-cone drill from the 40-yard dash. Broadcast says that Mario Edwards weighed in at 272 pounds today. He weighed 278 at the combine in February (which was a big deal) and was listed at 294 at FSU, but probably spent much of the year a couple cheeseburgers over 300.
10:33 - According to the ESPNU/ESPN3 broadcast, Eddie Goldman ran a 5.12 in the 40 today. Bobby Hart ran a 5.47. It's, uh, an interesting choice for the big man to wear tights today.
10:22 - Rashad Greene is not going to run the 40. He ran 4.53 at the combine in Indianapolis.
Some media types taking a picture of Jameis Winston before he gets going. He's returning the favor in kind:
10:05 - PJ Williams had the best standing broad jump of the day so far. 11 feet, 3.5 inches.
9:56 - A handful of former players on hand as well today. Greg Reid, Lonnie Pryor, Chad Abram, and Avis Commack.
