EAST LANSING, Mich. -- Michigan State's track record of preparing players for the NFL speaks for itself, and R.J. Shelton, Josiah Price, Riley Bullough and the 16 other draft-eligible Spartans from the 2016 team hope it screamed volumes about them on Wednesday.

Pro scouts from 30 NFL teams put Coach Mark Dantonio's former charges through the paces during MSU's annual Pro Day at the Duffy Daugherty indoor practice facility.

The poking, prodding, testing, interviewing and observing will continue right up to the April 27-29 draft in Philadelphia, but Shelton and his former teammates tried to leave team representatives with lasting images of what they can do.
