Garrett Waggoner, one of the clear standouts of the NFL Regional pro day in Tampa (link) has earned an invitation to the NFL Super Regional Combine in Detroit on the weekend of April 12-13. He's continuing to train at D1 in Tampa, which helped him grow his vertical to 43 inches, better than any player at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis.Waggoner, who earned first-team All-Ivy League recognition last fall as a fifth-year senior while finishing up his studies, is expected to be back on campus in two weeks for Dartmouth's Pro Day, tentatively scheduled for March 28. No word yet on who else might work out but All-Ivy tailback Dominick Pierre is among others who have expressed interest in giving the pro game a shot in the past.
