Cal Pro-Day results.

Though it was a large crowd at Cal’s pro-day it was absent of any big name coaches or general managers. Chiefs coach Herm Edwards was one of the few in Berkeley to take in the workout.


Two pass catchers came away as big winners.


Unheralded Robert Jordan, possibly the teams most complete and underrated receiver, shocked everyone running his forty’s in the low 4.4 second area. Jordan looked the most fluid and natural of any receiver at the workout and moved into the late rounds.


Tight end Craig Stevens capitalized on a terrific combine workout with a good pro-day. Stevens did not run the forty but improved his vertical jump six inches, touching the tape at 33 inches. His pass catching session was sensational, according to people on hand. There is a feeling Stevens may have moved into the late part of round two. The St. Louis Rams brought their tight end coach in to specifically workout Stevens. The Tampa Bay Bucs and Cleveland Browns also showed great interest in the tight end and are likely to set up interviews and/or workouts with Stevens in the very near future.


Lavel Hawkins ran a little faster today, clocking in the upper 4.4’s, (4.48). He also caught the ball well.


First rounder DeSean Jackson fielded punts and caught the ball. Future Hall of Fame wide out Jerry Rice, who has been coaching Jackson, was on hand to cheer the junior on.


Running back Justin Forsett ran poorly, clocking times in the high 4.6’s area on both runnings. Forsett evidently slipped at the start on both his fortys.
