Stanford Pro Day 2012: Andrew Luck Updates, Live Stream and TV Schedule
Stanford’s Pro Day is going to be all about Andrew Luck. The consensus No. 1 pick in the 2012 NFL Draft will be throwing for the first time in a controlled environment in front of NFL scouts, something he declined to do at the Indianapolis combine last month.
Aside from Luck, there are 11 other lesser known, but intriguing Cardinal prospects to watch who are hoping to boost their draft stock come late April.
Let’s take an in-depth look at where you can watch the 2012 Stanford Pro Day and which players you should keep an eye on.
Update: 4:32 p.m. EDT
Here is some footage of Luck throwing the ball during his Pro Day. He did well considering the wind factor and looked great nearly every time he dropped back.
It would have been nice to see more on his deep throws and occasionally a receiver had to slow down on their route to catch the ball, but besides that it was excellent.
Update: 4:07 p.m. EDT
Luck has been throwing well and now Fleener is back out there ready to run some routes for him.
Update: 3:30 p.m. EDT
After a mightily impressive 40-yard dash, Fleener may have gotten hurt during the three cone drill. He's currently having his ankle taped up.
Update: 3:05 p.m. EDT
TE Coby Fleener ran a 4.51 into the wind and a sub 4.5 with it at his back in the 40-yard dash. That great performance may be just what he needed to vault into the first round.
Where: Stanford Campus, Stanford, CA
When: Thursday, March 22 at 2 p.m. EST
Watch: ESPN U – 2 p.m. to 5 p. m. EST, NFL Network 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. EST

Players to Watch
Andrew Luck, QB
Obviously, he is the reason that people are going to tune in and it will be exciting to see if he possesses the elite arm strength that many expect.
Luck clearly showed a knack for timing and accuracy, but he rarely showed off his ability to zip a ball into a tight window.
This is his opportunity to show he can and a couple of well-placed deep balls will secure his spot at the top of the draft class.
Jonathan Martin, OT
Martin is vying to become the second tackle off the board after USC’s Matt Kalil.
The 6’6”, 305-pound behemoth did not run the 40-yard dash, participate in the three-cone drill, hit the bench press or compete in a number of tests during the combine due to illness.
He has a chance to make up for that today and an impressive performance will certainly bump him up a few spots on many big boards.
David DeCastro, OG
Many scouts believe DeCastro is the best interior lineman in the class and it would take a monumentally awful pro day performance to change that opinion.
DeCastro shouldn’t have anything to worry about and according to Kevin Gemmell of ESPN, the young prospect is more than ready to work out.
""I'm excited," said DeCastro. "I'm feeling great. I'm in shape, lifting hard. Working out has never been an issue for me. I love training. I love getting that lift and getting those endorphins going."
"
Coby Fleener, TE
Fleener is considered to be on the cusp of the first round because of his size, hands and route running abilities.
However, his speed is a concern at the next level and he’ll need to show observers that he has the ability to create separation in the NFL.
The tight end did not run at the combine, meaning his 40-yard dash time is going to make or break his first-round chances.
