Throughout the pre-draft process, there are key points for gaining more information on draft prospects. There’s the Senior Bowl and the college All-Star games. There’s the NFL Scouting Combine where top prospects can meet with teams, do athletic testing, and get checked out medically. Then there’s the Pro Day circuit when coaches and scouts get to go to college campuses and meet with prospects on their home turf. It’s one of the biggest parts of the evaluation process for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
When head coach Mike Tomlin held his pre-draft press conference along with general manager Omar Khan on Monday, he was asked about his approach to Pro Days.
