Also Russell Okung and Jason Pierre-Paul were in for visits.
Found these little nuggets when reading about PSU players (Odrick is very favorably talked about in the article as well):

USC offensive tackle Charles Brown (http://pennstate.scout.com/a.z?s=157&p=8&c=1&nid=4371646) told me he met with the Ravens offensive line coach before his school's Pro Day, visited the Bills and the Lions this past week, and has a visit with the Buccaneers early this week. I asked him why he's been able to be so effective as a pass blocker, which is essential to an offensive lineman's success in the NFL. "Staying square to the line of scrimmage," he said. "And I've got long arms, so I'm able to get a good touch on my opponent before he can get close to me." Brown's been hearing good things from the NFL coaches he's been talking to over the last couple of months. "They like that I'm athletic and have good feet. And when they put me on the board, I'm able to draw up the plays that we've been talking about," he said.
Oklahoma State offensive tackle Russell Okung (http://pennstate.scout.com/a.z?s=157&p=8&c=1&nid=4259610) and South Florida defensive end Jason Pierce-Paul were both up in Buffalo (http://buffalo.scout.com/) for a visit this past week. Both players are projected as first-round selections.
