New Mexico State’s Marcus Anderson (5-9, 173) may not be the biggest player in draft, but he put on a serious show of strength at New Mexico State’s pro day on March 29.

The wide receiver, who ran the 40 in 4.53 and 4.47, impressed those in attendance by finishing with 27 reps on the bench press. He also had a 38 1/2-inch vertical, 10-8 broad jump, 4.08 short shuttle and a 6.87 three-cone drill.

The workout took place outdoors on FieldTurf. Representatives from three NFL teams were attendance.

One other player who stood out was CB Chris Buckner (5-11 3/4, 192), who ran the 40 in 4.59 and 4.50, had a 36-inch vertical jump, 9-11 broad jump, 4.08 short shuttle, 6.84 three-cone drill and had 15 reps in the bench press.
