Andre Dillard, OT, Washington State
The thing with the combine is – great athletes will shine and that’s just what Dillard did. I already thought he was the most natural pass-protector in the draft and probably the number one guy if you look for a true left tackle in a pass-happy offense.

Dillard showed how light he is on his feet in Indy. He looked smooth throughout the workout and made it seem effortless to go through change-of-direction and pulling drills. He was outstanding on that arc drill, where they let tackle kick-slide and then open up their hips once the dummy is even with them, as he just fired out of his stance, pulling that kick-leg up high quickly and naturally moving around the edge.

With that being said, his numbers in the standard drills were also highly impressive – a 4.96 in the 40, an OL-leading 9’10” on the broad jump, the second-best time in the three-cone drill and a tenth of a second better than anybody among the group in the 20-yard shuttle. He should be a top 20 pick for sure.
