Pro Day Notebook

Posted Mar 21, 2012
On Tuesday, Zach Brown turned in the best 40 time of the day with a 4.47 after checking in at 6'1" and 242 pounds. “I dropped a couple of balls, but I caught a lot too, so it went very well today,” Brown said. The scuttlebutt emerging from Pro Day is that Matt Merletti’s performance impressed numerous scouts on hand. The 5-foot-10, 200-pounder benched 225 pounds 31 times and ran a 4.6 40.
