Interesting Tidbit regarding Pro-Days

Taken from NFLDraftScout.com: [quote=Rob Rang} NFLDraftScout.com has learned that an informal "Pro Day Combine" agreement between 26 of the 32 NFL teams has recently been created. The quiet agreement between teams is not entirely unlike that of the well established National and BLESTO -- scouting services shared by teams to identify the nation's incoming senior talent. With so many players opting to wait for later workouts at their universities, teams are acknowledging that they simply can't cover every workout. Thus, participating clubs have agreed to divvy up the pro days and disseminate the results to the other participating teams. Each team agrees to cover eight pro days, although scouts will almost certainly attend several more. The agreement between teams could make for interesting theater. For one, the possibility certainly exists that some teams will be more forthright with the results than others. Also, many have often noted which workouts clubs have attended, believing that this information could provide some insight as to who a team might be targeting. Ironically, despite the lack of participation by many prospects, veteran scouts noted that the actual running of the Combine has improved in the last few years. Small, practical ideas have improved the efficiency of the week's action. One veteran noted, for example, that teams were asked a week in advance which players they might want to see work out at various positions. Alphabetizing player names and streamlining the medical testing were other significant time savers about which scouts spoke highly.[/quote]
