You also you have to know what matters in these drills. You have to use them to confirm what you see in the tape, both good and bad. 

 

I want it ALL. I explained some of reasons in another post- summary. All players get hurt and lose speed/quicks/strength....if you already are slow,*but able to start and lose speed/quickness/etc you will be cut or out the league cause you can lose any of that. If you are very fast and lose .3, you are still fast and have a job....

Big fan of long arms(rhule meme) and big hands, height you name it, even neck size....

Speed at CB is not going to be a concern on this draft. 18 CBs have ran 4.5 flat or better. 7 have ran 4.4 flat or better. Two at 4.3 flat.

Hunter was right not to do the drills. I honestly don't think he would've stood out. He would've tested VERY well but it would've probably threw a little cold water on him being athletically head and shoulders above the pack.

Across the board so far there are some ATHLETES in this class.

You're probably right, but I think what Hunter has on top of athleticism is football instincts.  And that's not something that shows off in the underwear games.

    • Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.
    • I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.  
    • I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
