Re: Pro Day Results & Commentary
Two prospects we've talked about, improved their 40 times: Anthony Spencer and Johnnie Lee Higgins

"At the NFL Scouting Combine I ran 4.70 40-yard dash, and I knew I could run faster than that," defensive end Spencer said. "Today I ran a 4.64 40-yard dash, so I ran my 40 faster and had a good individual workout."

Higgins, decked out in his UTEP track uniform, ran times of 4.3 and a 4.34 seconds in the 40-yard dash, improving on his disappointing 4.48 at the combine.

Also, the article states Higgins is a projected second-to-fifth round pick, when pre-Combine he was considered a day one pick. This is good news for the Pats -- if we're interested. I'd take a flyer on him on day two.
