Rob Rang: Multiple members of the Carolina Panthers are at WSU pro day today

NFL comparison

From CBS Sports NFL draft analyst Chris Trapasso:

Terron Armstead. Armstead is more explosive of an athlete than Dillard, which gives context for how gifted the Saints left tackle is, because Dillard was the clearly the most athletic tackle at the combine. However, their styles are very comparable. Armstead wins with sheer quickness to the pass-rushing apex -- where edge rushers either turn the corner or are pushed off it. He's also fantastic with his punch timing and accuracy as a pass blocker. So is Dillard. He fires back into his kick slide and is tremendous with his hands. Because Dillard and Armstead are so fast, they rarely look uncomfortable as pass blockers and get the extra split second needed to sink their hips and anchor if they see a bull rush coming. When Armstead entered the league out of Arkansas Pine-Bluff, he was behind as a run blocker. The same goes for Dillard, who simply didn't get the normal amount of run-game reps in Washington State's Air Raid system.

Was watching NFLN earlier, believe it was Total Access, and they said interestingly enough, Hurney left their pro day as soon as Dillard's workout portion was over lol.

Yeah, they literally said Hurney left as soon as Dillard finished his workout.  Said all of the skill position guys worked out after and he didn't stay for any of it...  so yeah, idk what the point in doing that is.  Not unless he wants to give the appearance we're interested in Dillard to make another team trade up and/or take him in front of us.  But, that's an awful lot of effort for a smokescreen lol.

Hell, Arizona didnt even send anybody to Kyler Murray's workout, and they'd have very reason to, misdirection or not.

One has to wonder if we really are all that interested in him. I personally hope we do draft him. I heard a month ago our o line coach/we were very high on him. We will see in less than twenty days ns5 what we actually will do when we are on the clock.

We're getting Grier with our second 3rd.
