Eric Gordon "steals the show" at MSU's Pro Day


So he's only 5'11", 225lbs.... but the kid is fast and explosive.   I see Special team and back up OLB written all over this kid... and we all know our coverage (though improved) unit could use a bit more talent.

Gordon, a four-year starter for the Spartans, stole the show.

He posted a remarkable 40.5-inch vertical jump.

He benched pressed 225 pounds 25 times.

He ran the 40-yard dash under 4.6 seconds twice (4.57, 4.55).

He ran the 60-yard shuttle drill in an impressive 11.3 seconds

He also showed well in the position drills.

"I really needed to test well here," said Gordon, who was not invited to the Combine in Indianapolis. "This was my opportunity to go out and show what I can do. I think I did pretty good, but I know I can do better."
