LSU running back Spencer Ware worked out on campus on Friday, April 29. Ware ran indoors and on FieldTurf, and wasn’t measured at the workout. He did weigh in at 229 pounds, though. As for his numbers, he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.62 and 4.63 seconds. He posted a 34 inch vertical leap and a 10-foot-1/2 inch broad jump. In the short shuttle drill, he clocked in at 4.35 seconds, and completed the three-cone drill in 7.07 seconds. He opted not to lift, as he already had at LSU’s pro day. Ware had a good workout on the day, and caught the ball exceptionally well.

Hearing them before the draft, then watching them trade for LSU CB Morris Claiborne at No. 6, told me something very pertinent. They think they are gonna be really, really good. The result was my story that is now on the front page of NFL.com. With every move they made, from the blockbuster to add Claiborne, to filling in with projects […]

Vikings coach ​Leslie Frazier​, ​Jets coach ​Rex Ryan​ and Steelers coach ​Rex Ryan​ were all on hand to watch CB ​Morris Claiborne (5-foot-11 1/4, 190 pounds) ​make his case for being a top-five selection in the 2012 NFL Draft.

LSU is turning out top-notch defensive backs at a startling pace, a trend not lost on Morris Claiborne, who’s widely considered the top cornerback in this year’s draft class.
