Haku Correa. Edwards, Ingram, Dunnachie received the most interest from the scouts as all three participated in the NFL Combine several weeks ago.
Each participant was measured and went through various skills tests including the vertical jump, broad jump, 225-pound bench press, 40-yard dash, pro agility drill, and 3-cone drill as well as various position drills.
For the past several years, the Warriors conducted their Pro Day at the Home Depot Center, but this year moved to the SDSU campus.
