Quarterbacks mum, but effective: It seems like a reasonable guess that LSU quarterbacks Jordan Jefferson and Jarrett Lee were happy with their performances Thursday, although neither of them stuck around to discuss it with the media.

Jefferson opted not to try his hand at the 40-yard dash after he posted a 4.65 at the combine. He held himself out of the bench press as well, although he did add an extra inch to his broad jump to reach 9 feet, 7 inches. His vertical jump stayed the same at 36.5 inches.

Lee, who didn't attend the combine, posted the pedestrian numbers one would expect -- a 7 foot, 10 inch broad jump, a 22.5 inch vertical and a 4.97 40 time.

The telling factor for the duo was their workout with Rueben Randle and the team's other hopeful targets. Both quarterbacks looked fairly crisp, showing good timing and avoiding any off-target throws. It definitely looked like Jefferson had been working on his slow-to-deliver throwing motion, and Lee looked to be fighting off his tendency to throw off his back foot. The workout appeared to go well, but the pair seemed content to keep their opinions to themselves.
