Notable risers include Cam Ward, who solidified his status as a No. 1 pick, and Jalen Milroe, who showcased impressive speed and athleticism. Additionally, players like Jaydon Blue and Emeka Egbuka also demonstrated strong performances that likely boosted their draft prospects.

Pro days provide NFL teams with essential insights into player performance, allowing scouts to assess measurable traits such as speed and agility in a familiar environment, which can influence draft stock significantly, especially for prospects who did not perform well at the combine.

Teams often use pro day results to either reinforce or adjust their evaluations based on combine performances. Players who excel at pro days may overcome disappointing combine results, while those who falter can see a decrease in draft interest.

Players who skip pro days risk missing opportunities to improve their draft stock, which could lead to being selected much later in the draft. Inclement weather, injuries, or illness on the day of the pro day can also adversely affect performance.
