There was an unspoken message being delivered on Thursday when the NFL came to town for West Virginia University’s Pro Day, not exactly one Dana Holgorsen wanted to hear.
Last season he had produced a record-shattering passing game with the Mountaineers, good enough so that the NFL scouts were drawn not only to watch quarterback Geno Smith display his ample skills, but also to see a wide receiver talent unlike they could see anywhere else.
Not only were treated to Tavon Austin’s one-of-a-kind skills and Stedman Bailey’s fluid and graceful moves, but they saw in K.D.

Ryan Nehlen? tall big body
proday shows off his athleticism – speed, explosive, jumping
we already know they guy is smart
so . . . . why wasn’t he on the field more? how did he get lost behind JD Wood if he’s bigger and faster?
we know he missed some Spring practices due to classes
this article said he impressed catching
did he have drops in practice/scrimmage?
did he not block well?
did he not hit the weights until AFTER his senior season?
i don’t remember seeing him on the field enough to evaluate?
I mean with Steadman and Austin, the 3rd receiver is gonna get leftovers, but why didn’t Nehlen get those leftovers?
it’s a riddle to me from 30,00 feet how someone with all the skills and physical abilities, didn’t get a little more love
anybody closer to Morgantown know why?
Is it possible to totally flip the conceptual notion of skilled athletes on the football team with players on the basketball team?
