Ten Stanford football players worked out in front of NFL scouts and media Wednesday morning at Stanford's Pro Timing Day, with cornerback Collin Wright and linebacker Hunter Barth among the headliners as the program continued its streak of annual draft representation stretching back to 2010.

Wright, a four-year starter who served as the team's season-long defensive captain as a redshirt junior, finished his Cardinal career with five interceptions, three of them coming in 2024. He returned his lone pick of the 2025 season for a touchdown in Stanford's home-opening win over Boston College. Inside linebacker Barth arrived at Stanford as a transfer after five seasons at California, then played in all 12 games with five starts, setting career highs in tackles (32), tackles-for-loss (4), and sacks (2). He is a four-time conference academic team selection, including the 2025 All-ACC Academic Team.

The full list of Cardinal participants included tight ends Brendan Doyle and Sam Roush, defensive linemen Zach Buckey and Clay Patterson, linebacker Ese Dubre, quarterback Ben Gulbranson, cornerback Jordan Washington, and wide receiver CJ Williams. Stanford also hosted two outside prospects: wide receiver Jayson Raines from Northern Arizona and offensive lineman Austin Uke from Miami (OH).

None of the Stanford players had appeared on NFL Draft boards heading into the workout, but a strong performance Wednesday could generate interest before the draft opens on April 23, either as selections or as free-agent targets for teams building out training camp rosters.

The program carries genuine draft credibility into that conversation. Stanford placed at least one player in every NFL Draft since 2010, accumulating 57 picks over that span, the fourth-most among current ACC schools. Wide receiver Elic Ayomanor was the most recent Cardinal selected, going to the Tennessee Titans in the fifth round in 2025.

Media were admitted beginning at 9 a.m. at the field entrance nearest the Varsity Field Hockey Turf. Sports Illustrated's participant list included safety Mitch Leigber, though Stanford's official release listed cornerback Collin Wright as the tenth Cardinal participant in place of Leigber; Stanford's announcement serves as the authoritative record for the event roster.
