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.

    • An odd little vibe I've noticed here of late: some folks are "all or nothing" to an absolutely extreme level when it comes to Bryce. There are, in fact, things Bryce does well. Likewise, there are areas in which he's improved over his time here. He has, on several occasions now, legitimately helped us win games. On the flipside, there have been failures in other areas as well as coaching that we're not in any way his fault.  And finally , it is also genuinely possible that the team may see him as the future, even if we don't. The craziest part, though? It's actually possible that they're right and we're wrong. All of this is true, and more, yet if you accept any of these premises people go from zero to apesh-t in under three seconds 😳 Anything less than total disavowal of Bryce and / or agreement that he's the worst QB of all time and suddenly you're a "stan". Oy 🙄 The reality though?  Bryce is indeed an NFL quarterback. Not a great one, probably backup level good, and I've seen way worse. Now, if you run that statement through your personal Google translator and it comes back with some version of "I want to throw 50 million a year at Bryce for the next 10 years", that's not really my issue it's yours  I don't wanna make him the franchise quarterback, but it's not my call. Win or lose, the team is going to do what they think is best. And as always, if it disagrees with what I think we should do, I'm gonna hope I'm the one who's wrong. Internet clout means nothing. Watching my favorite team win at my favorite sport meas fun 😁
    • I like Icky but he was the wrong tackle to take. Learning run blocking is much easier than learning pass blocking. Cross was pass pro ready. He was the tackle we should have taken without hesitation. 
    • Never saw this angle of the Tyson fight either lol.
