Northwestern defensive end Corey Wootton ran a 4.93 in the 40-dash at Northwestern's Pro Day on Monday.  "We worked him out for 40 minutes, and he never complained about one drill," Lions defensive line coach Kris Kocurek said. "He showed he can move around a little bit. He helped himself."

Concerns about Wootton's knee will likely keep him out of the first round.  But he is one of the few defensive ends that has the size to play in both 4-3 and 3-4 schemes, which makes him a valuable commodity.
