West Virginia has produced a number of solid NFL players over the years, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that 14 teams were in attendance for school’s pro day on March 18.

A total of 13 players worked out indoors on FieldTurf. WR Alric Arnett (6-1 7/8, 191) stood out the most, as he looked good in positional drills. He ran a 4.53 and 4.56 40, stood on his combine numbers for the the vertical jump and broad jump, ran a 4.33 short shuttle, 6.81 three-cone drill, and didn’t do the bench press.

QB Jarrett Brown (6-2 7/8, 222) only did the vertical jump (36 1/2), but he went through the paces in a number of QB drills.

On to the rest of the noteworthy prospects:

OL, Selvish Capers (6-5, 306) ran the 40 in 5.08 and 5.10, had a 31-inch vertical jump, 8-11 broad jump, 4.51 short shuttle, 7.44 three-cone drill, 34 3/4-inch arms and did 22 bench presses.
