Penn State held its pro day today, and plenty of eyes were on linebacker Dan Connor .
I spoke to someone who attended today's workout, and he said Connor ran the 40-yard dash in the "low 4.5's," which is very, very good speed. Connor can play inside or outside, but with 4.5 speed, he projects extremely well on the outside. He also has that patented Penn State toughness as a potential inside guy.
There has been plenty of talk the Giants will seriously consider Connor with the 31st overall pick, although the Giants don't necessarily place as high a value on linebackers as some other teams.
The person who saw the workout said Connor also did well on individual drills, which will clearly improve his stock as teams arrange their draft boards.

Shouldn't Todd McShay be your primary concern, Mel?
