Oklahoma's Ethan Downs has fantastic showing at NFL Scouting Combine
Three Oklahoma Sooners are undergoing testing at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis in hopes of being called for the 2025 NFL Draft. Danny Stutsman, Ethan Downs, and Billy Bowman are at work this week trying to impress NFL coaches and front offices with their athletic ability. Among the trio of Sooners, Downs has helped himself a ton after going through the interview process and performing on the field. He put on a show in the athletic testing portion, running a 4.69 40-yard dash at 270 pounds. His 32 reps on the bench press were the most among defensive ends and edge players this season. Projected as a strong side defensive end at the NFL level, Downs showed out in a big way. He put together a combine that puts him among the top 15 at his position during the combine. Downs also performed well in the 10-yard split, a drill that is particularly useful for defensive linemen. Event Result Position Rank 40-yard dash 4.69 10 10-yard split 1.62 6 Vertical Jump 34 inches 12 Broad Jump 9-feet-11 inches 14 3-cone drill 7.58 10 20-yard shuttle 4.59 7 Bench Press 32 1 Downs almost assured he'll get drafted at the end of April with his performance at the combine and his position coach, Miguel Chavis, loved the effort from his defensive end. He really helped himself with this performance. Just like he was a stalwart for Brent Venables' defense, defensive coordinators at the NFL level are going to love Ethan Downs. More than ANY DL (Edge or DT), @ethandowns40 hit 32 reps on the Bench Press at the Combine this morning!I see you ED!!!Choke em out Dawg!!!! — Coach Miguel Chavis (@MiguelChavis65) February 28, 2025 This article originally appeared on Sooners Wire: Oklahoma's Ethan Downs leads way in the Bench Press at NFL Combine

Assessing Jamaree Caldwell's performance at the 2024 NFL Combine
Assessing Jamaree Caldwell's performance at the 2024 NFL Combine The 2025 NFL Combine got underway for the Oregon Ducks on Thursday, with senior defensive lineman Jamaree Caldwell leading the way, hitting the field for some drills and getting his measurables taken. Caldwell looked very strong, shedding about 10 pounds over the past month since the Reese's Senior Bowl, which was been a goal of his this offseason. While his numbers didn't stack up next to the top of the position in terms of interior defensive linemen, Caldwell's tape speaks for itself in his one year with the Ducks, and will still land him with an NFL team this spring despite his relatively mediocre 40-yard dash times and vertical jump numbers. In the end, Caldwell received a solid combine score of 6.19, with the tag of "good backup with the potential to develop into a starter," according to Here is a look at the final numbers from the NFL combine for Caldwell. Measurables Height: 6-foot-2 Weight: 332 pounds Hand Size: 9 3/8 inches Arm Length: 32 inches 40-yard Dash Time: 5.17 seconds Rank at Position: 16th of 19 Players While it may not seem impressive to rank 16th out of 19 players, Caldwell actually turned in a great time for his size and will walk away happy with the result. At 332 pounds, there aren't many times in his career where Caldwell will have to run 40 yards on a dead sprint. Nebraska's Ty Robinson ran the fastest 40-yard dash among defensive linemen at 4.83 seconds. 10-Yard Split Official Split Time: 1.86 seconds Rank at Position: 17th of 20 Players Much like his overall 40-time, Caldwell wasn't the quickest off of the ball, but as an interior defensive lineman who thrives on moving people off of their spot at wreaking havoc in rushing lanes, this isn't a major concern. SMU DL Jared Harrison-Hunte had the fastest 10-yard split at 1.69 seconds. He had the third-fastest overall 40-time at 4.87 seconds. Vertical Jump Official Measurement: 27.0" Rank at Position: 23rd of 28 players Not a great measurement for Caldwell, who was in the bottom third of all defensive linemen when it comes to vertical. Georgia DL Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins led the way with a vertical jump of 36.00" Broad Jump Jamaree Caldwell did not participate in the broad jump. Bench Press The Bench Press will take place on Friday for defensive linemen, so we will update this post once Dorlus' numbers come in.
