Meyer, whose team has the No. 1 overall roster, was almost attached to Clemson coach Dabo Swinney for most of the session.
“Everything is normal, but life happens sometimes and things change. I show that I can adapt, adapt, prepare in the short term and still have a pretty good day,” said Lawrence.
Along with the Jaguars, the NFL clubs that sent coaches and / or scouts to practice were the Falcons, Jets, Broncos, 49ers, Chargers, Dolphins, Eagles, Giants, Lions, Patriots, Raiders, Saints, Steelers, Texans and Titans, per NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport. Those teams also got the chance to see former Clemson WR Cornell Powell, also an NFL draft prospect, who was one of Lawrence’s pass catchers.
Lawrence threw 52 passes, but for an elite prospect who NFL scouts consider the best quarterback in years to compete in the NFL draft, there was little to prove on Friday, however.
“It’s like watching Steph Curry shoot a basketball,” said Clemson coach Dabo Swinney of Lawrence’s training. “Who doesn’t like to watch that?”
Lawrence’s weighing results were slightly below his Clemson-listed size of 6-foot-6, 220 pounds, measuring 6-5 5/8 and weighing 213. His hands were 10 inches, which is comfortably above average for what NFL clubs prefer, and matched the largest hand measurements from the Reese’s Senior Bowl (Feleipe Franks, Jamie Newman).
