Clemson defensive end Daquan Bowers had his first workout since undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery.  Bowers worked out in front of an estimated 41 NFL scouts and coaches at Memorial Stadium.  There are numerous reports across the internet that talk of Bowers having a subpar performance in drills:

The most negative observation came from Pro Football Weekly who had a source say that the workout cost Bowers "millions of dollars"

Bowers ran the 40 yard dash with times reported in the 4.8 to 4.9 range.  With 16 sacks last season for Clemson, it was believed that Bowers could be a top 5 selection in next month's NFL Draft, but now that is up in the air.
