Drew Stanton, QB, Michigan State - Stanton showed off better than expected arm strength and accuracy, especially on the 15 yard out patterns. In addition to a great physique, Stanton also impressed in his 40 time, which was in the low 4.7s. Stanton seems poised at this point to take over the 3rd rated QB position behind Russell and Quinn.
Anthony Gonzalez, WR, Ohio State - Gonzalez turned in an impressive workout, posting a 40 in the mid 4.4s, soft and consistent hands in the pass catching drills, as well as matching the best shuttle time among wide outs at 4.08s. Gonzalez has solidified a spot in round 2 with the possibility of sneaking into the bottom of round 1 depending on the workouts of those that bypassed performing at the combine.
D'Juan Woods, WR, Oklahoma State - Woods athletic numbers tended to be in the middle of the pack of this impressively fast group of WRs. However Woods displayed far and away the best hands of any offensive player at the combine, using his unusually large and soft mitts to pull in anything and everything near him, including a spectacular one-handed snag over his shoulder while in a full sprint. Woods might have snuck into Day 1 with his performance.
Chris Henry, RB, Arizona State - Henry probably had the biggest jump of the day, going from a late round pick to a likely first day pick. Henry weighed in at 230lbs and then went on to tie for the fastest 40 time among all RBs at the combine as well as one of the top shuttle times. He has only started a handful of games at ASU due to injuries but one team might jump on his excellent combo of size and speed at the end of round 1.
