Overview
- Delane, who skipped on-field testing at February’s NFL Combine, clocked multiple sub-4.4 40-yard dashes at LSU’s Pro Day on Monday and moved smoothly through defensive back drills.
- Reported times varied by source, with LSU-linked timing at 4.35 seconds and several scouts logging 4.38, reflecting the hand-timed nature of college pro days.
- New Orleans sent a strong contingent as GM Mickey Loomis spoke at length with Delane and cornerbacks coach Grady Brown put him through drills, with personnel adviser Randy Mueller also present.
- Draft analysts now project the LSU cornerback firmly in the top tier of this class, with outlets linking him to picks in the top 10 and noting specific interest from teams such as the Giants, Saints, Chiefs, Bengals, and a scheduled pre-draft visit with the Commanders.
- Teams will factor the pro-day results alongside tape and interviews, and Delane’s profile includes a transfer from Virginia Tech and a 2025 season at LSU with 45 tackles, 11 passes defended, and two interceptions as a unanimous All‑American.
