The Oklahoma football program held their annual pro day on Wednesday for select players to have one last chance to make an impression before May's NFL draft. Among some notable faces working out were former Sooner quarterback Drew Allen, former Sooner running back Dominique Whaley, and former Norman North/Ohio Bobcat star Beau Blankenship. While no one put up "amazing" numbers in the workout there were some impressive stats that came up.
Dominique Whaley just beat out Lacolton Bester and Beau Blankenship with the highest vertical jump. Whaley is trying to prove that he's healthy again and is hoping to get picked up as a free agent by someone after being cut by the Seahawks before last season.

No one really ever doubted Jaz Reynold's athleticism but his 10-5 Broad Jump was pretty amazing. He won't turn heads on that stat alone but it is impressive regardless.

Roy Finch posted the best 40 time at 4.44 but Blankenship was right on his heels at 4.47. Others to note were Brennan Clay and Corey Nelson at 4.64 and Gabe Lynn at 4.58. The 40 seems to be the main event at any camp, combine or pro day, and if that were the case at Oklahoma on Wednesday then you'd have to say that Finch was the star.

Brennan Clay was the top guy in the 20-yard shuttle, with Finch just behind him. The biggest surprise from the 60-yard shuttle was how slow of a time that Bester recorded.

At the end of the day I'm not sure that anyone worked their way into improving their draft stock but Roy Finch was able to back up the impression he made at the Senior Bowl and others made enough of an impression to at least garner a camp invite and the opportunity to earn an undrafted free agent contract.
