Reading most scouting profiles, one of the first things mentioned about him is a &#8216;lack of ideal size.&#8217; One of the players Guilbeau looks up to is Detroit Lions cornerback Amik Robertson (5-9, 183).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Amik, he&#8217;s a ball hog. He go get the ball, see ball, go get ball and I would say that&#8217;s what you get paid off, go and get the ball,&#8221; he said &#8220;And I say, he play with a chip on his shoulder. A lot of people said he was small, he couldn&#8217;t play, so I would say he proved people wrong, and that&#8217;s what I like to do, I like to prove people wrong.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Big man flying: Penn State&#8217;s Zane Durant (6-1, 290) led the way for the defensive tackle group in the 40-yard dash Thursday with a 4.76 time and maybe an even more impressive 1.66 second 10-yard split, which is the more important number when watching the defensive tackle group. Durant had 4.0 sacks from the interior for the Nittany Lions last season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Proving people wrong: Texas cornerback Jaylon Guilbeau is 5-foot-10, 186 pounds.
