Methodtoll's Guys to Watch Out For

Quarterbacks

Pat White, West Virginia : Will he we a QB or a WR? White told the NFL Network that he does not want to work out with the receivers yet remain with the QBs so we'll see.

Josh Freeman, Kansas State: Will he be first round talent? Or we'll he fall to the second? He has the arm strength and the mobility but does he have the accuracy?

Graham Harrell, Texas Tech: The biggest issue facing Harrell is his arm strength. He has had a lot of time between the Senior Bowl and today to work on it so it will be interesting to see how much improvement he has made.

John Parker Wilson, Alabama: Not a lot of talk about this guy out of Alabama but he is on my sleeper list. He is a game manager and IF the Panthers were to select a QB somewhere in this draft (once again, it will all depend on what we do with Peppers) then Wilson wouldn't be a bad guy to compete with Moore.

Runningbacks

Rashad Jennings, Liberty- I'll admit that I haven't paid any attention to the runningbacks this season but I re-watched the Senior Bowl one guy that stood out to me was Rashad Jennings. I know the Panthers might not need another RB since we already have a talented tandem but it wouldn't hurt to look for a third down guy since it looks to be that Goings is done in Carolina. Jennings gave an excellent performance.

Kory Sheets, Purdue : Another guy that kind of impressed me at the Senior Bowl was Kory Sheets. Ran very well, found the holes good and could be a good guy on third downs.

Chris Ogbonnaya, Texas: A FB/HB hybrid from Texas, Ogbonnaya was a guy that really impressed me during his tenue at Texas, especially against a powerhouse like Oklahoma. Look at him as a younger, more athletic version of Goings.

Next up Wide Receivers.

Wide Receivers

Kenny Britt- Rutgers: Referring back to the Senior Bowl, Britt gave an outstanding performance. Him and Wallace were probably the best receivers at the Senior Bowl. We'll see what he can do today at the Combine. Big guy as well.

Juaquin Iglesias: Was a talented receiver for Oklahoma and could be a good fit for any team.

Mohamed Massaqoui Now this is one guy that I know about well! Talented receiver that was overshadowed by freshman A.J. Green. Would really be a good fit for the slot and also can help out on STs.

Other WRs to Watch For:

Jarrett Dilliard, Rice

Aaron kelly. Clemson

Brandon Tate and Brooks Foster, N. Carolina

Mike Wallace, Ole Miss

      2025 Schedule Release - post 'em when you find 'em

      So dumb I get it, they want to expand the reach of the NFL, but it's not the right sport to be playing games halfway around the world for a variety of reasons.   But one of the main ones is what happens if a player has an injury in that game? A lot of times, you're not supposed to fly right after some injuries, so when they happen here it's not a big deal, the player stays in that town for a few days and then flys home separately.  But that opens a whole bag of worms if the game is played all the way out in Australia. Plus just needing that long of a flight to get out there and back, even if they get a bye week after, it means a ton of travel and needing to adjust to a new time zone directly after another game.

      I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
