Bruins coach Rick Neuheisel did a great job helping run the pro day and providing information to scouts about the team’s prospects, but at this point he has his work cut out for him in Westwood. UCLA doesn’t have a large number of elite players entering the draft this year and one of Neuheisel’s aims will be to replenish his roster moving forward so that at future pro days there will be a number of first-round caliber players on hand to work out.

After months of courting, Matthew Stafford and the Detroit Lions finally will have some alone time. Today, the Lions are holding a private workout with the quarterback, whom most believe will be the team’s choice for the No. 1 overall pick in next month’s NFL draft. The Lions looked at Stafford during last month’s combine and at this month’s University of Georgia pro day, but as The Detroit News points out, there are advantages to seeing the QB all by themselves.
