How much preparation (and what type) goes into preparing a potential draftee for their team interview? Is there a concern that the interview comes off "canned"? Generallly, does such an interview hurt a potential draftee or is more important to avoid screwing things up at the risk of being seen as performing by rote?

Do you find teams have different priorities on pro days as opposed to the combine? If so, what are they?

As players subject to the draft have little control over who chooses them, is it more important to simply for the player to "do his best" during a pro day or is their some attempt target desired teams? i.e. - Do players occasionally/sometimes/never tailor their pro days to the needs of specific teams in hopes of enhancing their probability of being selected by that team?
