The NFL Scouting Combine is history. NFL GMs, coaches, and scouts now focus on College Pro Days. NFL hopefuls looking to improve upon their combine showing and players who did not work out in Indianapolis recently will show off their talents all over the country. The University of Oregon started the pro-day season on Tuesday.
All six Oregon Ducks present at the Combine were in attendance. Led by head coach Matt Eberflus, the Chicago Bears had one of the largest contingents of personnel on hand.
Bo Nix Shines
Bo Nix had a good showing a few weeks ago. Nix capitalized on the opportunity given to him and other QB prospects in Indy, when Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, and Jayden Daniels decided to forego throwing drills in Indianapolis. Nix showed off his passing skills again on Tuesday.
His passing drills lasted more than 30 minutes, throwing to his receivers from last year and he did not disappoint. He threw short, medium, and long passes from several arm angles. He threw from the pocket as well as moving in the backfield. His passes were on target the entire session. Only two drops by his receivers prevented a perfect day.
Head coach Matt Eberflus and offensive coordinator Shane Waldron were there for the event. Several offensive coaches including WR coach Chris Beatty, and offensive line coach Chris Morgan joined them. Morgan was there, a day after he witnessed Oregon State standout Taliese Fuaga at the Oregon State Beavers’ pro day.
