Updates from Georgia football’s pro day

The Georgia Bulldogs have an important pro day this year. What Georgia Bulldogs are performing well at the event?

The Georgia Bulldogs and college football programs across the country have more important pro days this year thanks to COVID-19. There’s no NFL combine, so this will be NFL scouts’ best opportunity to gather information on their top targets from the University of Georgia.

A few Georgia Bulldogs have received official measurements. The results are notable for underclassmen who did not get measured at the Senior Bowl.

NFL Network draft expert Daniel Jeremiah received some 40-yard dash times from a scout. He mentions the best 40-yard dash times for major University of Georgia NFL draft prospects including Azeez Ojulari (4.6) and Tyson Campbell (4.4). Eric Stokes (4.3) turns in yet another impressive time:

Marc Weiszer (Athens Banner-Herald) named several more 40-yard dash times via his Twitter account. DJ Daniel, Monty Rice, and Ben Cleveland all ran impressive times in addition to those mentioned above.

Georgia offensive guard Ben Cleveland did not break the NFL combine record for the bench press. 30 reps of 225 pounds will still boost his NFL draft stock.

A pair of former Georgia Bulldogs worked out too. David Marshall and Tyler Simmons are both looking to find an NFL home. The duo took advantage of the opportunity to showcase their talents at Georgia’s pro day.

Georgia Bulldogs offensive lineman Ben Cleveland is an incredible athlete and will try to break the NFL combine bench press record at Georgia’ 2021 pro day. Cleveland has been preparing for the 2021 NFL Draft after he opted out of the Peach Bowl against Cincinnati.

Ben Cleveland, who attended Stephens County High School, started at offensive guard for Georgia this season. Ben Cleveland dominated as a run blocker during the 2021 season. He’s one of the strongest players to ever come through the University of Georgia football program and should test well on all athletic tests on pro day.

Cleveland should have a legitimate chance to break the combine bench press record of 49 reps of 225 pounds. Former Oregon State defensive tackle Stephen Paea (2011) currently holds the NFL combine bench press record.

While Ben Cleveland wouldn’t officially set the record, it would still be an impressive accomplishment and help boost his NFL draft stock.

Ben Cleveland played for the University of Georgia from 2016-2020. Cleveland made an immediate impact as a freshman and played in every game during Georgia’s SEC Championship season in 2017.
