Greg Salas, Kealoha Pilares and Alex Green are having interviews and testing at the NFL Combine today

About the start of the NFL Combine today, with interviews, testing, and measurements, Greg Salas said:
"The waiting is over." (HSA)


HSA Note: "Salas and Green said they will participate in all of the skill drills. Pilares, who suffered a partially torn posterior cruciate ligament during the Dec. 24 Hawaii Bowl, said he will take part in the weight-lifting drills, but not the 40-yard dash. Instead, Pilares said he will run the 40 at UH's Pro Day March 31 in Carson."


About how he won't do the 40-yard dash at the Combine, instead running it at UH's Pro Day, Kealoha Pilares said:
"I'll wait until I'm 100 percent. You don't want to go out there and not be 100 percent. I just got (medically) cleared to run in the beginning of the month." (HSA)


About ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay predicting that he would be a sleeper in the draft, Salas said:
"That was cool." (HSA)


About Mcshay spotlighting him as an under-the-radar prospect, Alex Green said:
"I heard about it, but I didn't see (the report). It's definitely an honor to be mentioned by someone with (McShay's) experience." (HSA)


About coming back from a virus he had after the Hawaii Bowl that dropped his weight from 230 to 219, Green said:
"I gained 12 pounds of muscle since I've been out here." (HSA)


About training at Athletes' Performance for more than a month, Green said:
"It makes a difference to be out here. We train twice a day as opposed to once a day. We don't do much heavy lifting. We do technique lifting. We work on balance, moving laterally, and on our core." (HSA)


About how he was told that he is projected to run the 40 in 4.6 seconds, Green said:
"I want to run faster than that." (HSA)


About how he will return to his family's home in Portland for 2 weeks after the combine, Green said:
"Then I'll get ready for Pro Day. I have to take care of business." (HSA)
