Blog in the life of Desmond Trufant Part II

Two weeks have passed since I last checked in with Trufant and it has been a pretty quiet couple of weeks in comparison to the weeks ahead. The raving reviews have continued since the Senior Bowl as scouts have gone away and re-watched the tape. He even ranked in NFL.com scouts Bucky Brooks top 4 cornerbacks entering this years draft and had him going in the first round of his latest mock draft.

Since the Senior Bowl Trufant has retuned to the University of Washington and is working very hard in preparation for the NFL Combine next week. I like that he has returned to his University to work rather than going to an elite athlete performance centre. For me it shows he is grounded and knows he can work hard in familiar surroundings which should prepare him ideally for the biggest interview process of his life.

Trufant has said he is not working on anything in specific in preparation for the combine rather he is preparing for everything. He wants to display his consistency across all the disciplines from the 40 to the skills drills to the interviews in the evening. One thing to keep an eye on is his brothers 40 time 4.38, I'm sure he will want to beat this for bragging rights but it will also boost his draft stock if he was to beat it.

In two weeks time I will review Trufants Combine what the buzz is coming out and how he is preparing for his schools individual work out session.
