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.

Watch: Eric Stokes runs 4.2 40-yard dash at combine

Georgia Bulldogs cornerback Eric Stokes raised his NFL draft stock with a 4.2 40-yard dash

Georgia Bulldogs cornerback Eric Stokes improved his NFL draft stock with a 4.2 40-yard dash during his combine workout. Stokes was Georgia’s No. 1 cornerback this past season and is looking to be a first-round selection in the 2021 NFL draft.

Stokes intercepted four passes this past season for the University of Georgia. The Covington, Georgia, product returned two of his interceptions for touchdowns.

The speedy defensive back is 6 feet, 1 inch and weighs 185 pounds. Stokes had an impressive workout at former NFL wide receiver Brandon Marshall’s combine. Additionally, the Georgia standout’s 41-inch vertical jump will catch the eye of NFL scouts.

Here’s the video of Stokes’ impressive 40-yard dash:
