  03/20/20 - SS Jared MaydenSr/2020, Alabama

  Instead of having access to Alabama's state-of-the-art weight room, Jared Mayden continued his pre-draft training earlier this week in a place with far fewer exercise options. His living room. It's what the former Crimson Tide safety had to settle for - a couple long stretching sessions and a workout that consisted of pushups, ab work and some dips that Mayden used his sofa to get done. "There's a lot of uncertainty right now," said Mayden, who led Alabama with four interceptions last season. "But the only thing that I know that I can control is just staying in shape." With pro days being canceled, their primary shot at impressing NFL evaluators prior to the NFL draft has been eliminated. It's left Mayden and others trying to figure out an alternate means to improving their draft stock while also - for players like Mayden - now having to find a new place to work out. "I was working out at the school," Mayden said. "But on Friday, they closed the school down. They took away fingerprint access (to the football complex) and pretty much everything is closed, including the gym. So I've really just been talking to my agent and trying to figure out what's the next thing to do."

With Alabama closed, Mayden's plan is to go home to Texas and get workouts in with his personal trainer, Clay Mack. With Mack, Mayden will essentially go through his own pro day workout, tape it and send that video out to NFL teams so that evaluators can at least see him going through the drills he would have performed at the Tide's pro day workout. That's really the only option for now. "I'm pretty sure everyone's probably coming to the same conclusion, that the only thing that you can do is just videotape it," Mayden said. "That's the only way teams are going to see you. But it's a good idea. It's really one of the only things that you can do for teams to be able to see what you have going on. So I'm probably just going to send a raw cut of clips of just raw video of me doing drills to the teams, showing them that it's not edited, so they have that." It's less than ideal, especially since Mayden was expecting to post a pro day 40 time in the 4.3s that could have helped his draft stock. - Birmingham News
