The Falcons host a local Pro Day every year, where prospects from the Atlanta area can attempt to impress the hometown team in hopes of earning a draft selection or a look as a priority undrafted free agent.
With a hat tip to D. Orlando Ledbetter and Aaron Freeman, here's the list of prospects working out today:
James Vaughters, DE/OLB, Stanford
Mike Davis, RB, South Carolina
Tory Slater, DT/DE, West Georgia
Norman Hayes, CB, Harvard
Rory "Busta" Anderson, TE, South Carolina
John Mincy, CB, Auburn
Mike Thornton, DT, Georgia
Amarlo Herrera, ILB, Georgia
Garry Peters, CB, Clemson
DeAndre Smelter, WR, Georgia Tech
Zach Laskey, FB, Georgia Tech
Eric Newman, TE, University of West Georgia
Dondre Purnell, WR, Stillman
Gary Wilkins, LB/DB, Furman
As Aaron Freeman at FalcFans notes, the Falcons have plucked a couple of players out of these workouts in the past, in the form of UDFAs Michael Palmer and Kimario McFadden. It's very possible the team actually drafts one of the players on this list in 2015, so it'll be worth keeping these players in mind as we near the end of April. Just don't expect anything concrete to leak out of this one, because as Ledbetter notes, the event isn't open to the media.
