2026 NFL Scouting Combine Day 2 observations

Proving people wrong: Texas cornerback Jaylon Guilbeau is 5-foot-10, 186 pounds. Reading most scouting profiles, one of the first things mentioned about him is a ‘lack of ideal size.’ One of the players Guilbeau looks up to is Detroit Lions cornerback Amik Robertson (5-9, 183).
“Amik, he’s a ball hog. He go get the ball, see ball, go get ball and I would say that’s what you get paid off, go and get the ball,” he said “And I say, he play with a chip on his shoulder. A lot of people said he was small, he couldn’t play, so I would say he proved people wrong, and that’s what I like to do, I like to prove people wrong.”
Big man flying: Penn State’s Zane Durant (6-1, 290) led the way for the defensive tackle group in the 40-yard dash Thursday with a 4.76 time and maybe an even more impressive 1.66 second 10-yard split, which is the more important number when watching the defensive tackle group. Durant had 4.0 sacks from the interior for the Nittany Lions last season.
