Jaxon Smith-Njigba has been counted among the top wide receiver prospects for the entirety of the current draft cycle, but he still needed to prove something at Ohio State's pro day. In doing so, he's now solidified himself as a top-three wide receiver, with the potential to be the first one of his position selected in April's NFL draft.
What did he need to do? The 21-year-old had to run the 40-yard dash.
It seems too simple of a task. Almost all of the prospects set to enter the NFL run a 40-yard dash at some point between their final season on campus and the draft itself.
