People are paying way too much attention to the combine

LOL, ok so scouts are taking this too seriously? That's what the combine is for. To find those players that aren't in the spotlight and should be worth that pick..

People aren't talking about diamonds in the rough that might be going from undrafted to drafted because of their combines or from a late-round pick to a second-day pick. No, we're talking about players we're already familiar with, first-round picks. When we pick someone else that isn't Dontari Poe, I promise you there are going to be shrieks of anger from people that take the combine so so seriously now when they wouldn't have put much stock into it at all before it started being televised.

This is a Brockers fanboy thread in bad disguise. Don't let him fool you.

I'm not championing anybody this year. The lone draft thread I made was many months ago when I wanted us to pick Devon Still. Now I honestly don't care that much who we pick. I do think people are putting way too much into combine stuff over how players performed in college. I said as much this time last year when Cam had a poor throwing day at the combine and people were ripping him to shreds on the Huddle.

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
