KALAMAZOO, MI - Bench pressing 225 pounds 20 times doesn't equal a quarterback sack and running the 40-yard dash in 4.4 seconds doesn't earn six points.
But they can earn a spot in the NFL Draft and a multi-million-dollar contract, which is why those tests are among some of football's most important measurements.
Western Michigan's football Pro Day gave class of 2018 Broncos a chance to display their strength and athleticism in front of NFL scouts from all 32 teams Wednesday at the Seelye Indoor Practice Facility.
A dozen WMU seniors participated in the measurements and drills which can be described as somewhere between a doctor's visit and a job interview.
