The entire NFL was well represented in Baton Rouge Wednesday afternoon as the nation’s top talent producer LSU held its annual pro day, showcasing the multiple future stars coming out in this year’s class. As usual, LSU had a variable load of NFL draft talent show off to scouts and front office members who came to see the likes of Jayden Daniels, Malik Nabers, and Brian Thomas Jr., plus others on the defensive side of the ball.

The talent on show for the afternoon did not disappoint as Jayden Daniels let it rip to his stud receivers, showcasing both his arm talent as well as his receivers big play potential. Malik Nabers in particular had a phenomenal day, blowing the roof off the facility with a blazing 4.35 40-yard dash time, confirming the incredible speed teams see on film.

This pro day show all but confirmed the talent that will be showing up across the board on draft night. Heisman winner Jayden Daniels and his top offensive weapons are not going to have to wait long to hear their names called in the first round of the NFL draft, and defensive talent Maason Smith might find himself in the same boat after today.
Much of attention at LSU pro day on big-3 but 1 other player NFL personnel kept talking up was DT Maason Smith. His size, movement got a lot of reaction from scouts.
