Combine Winners and Losers

Certainly wouldn't mind seeing Warmack fall, but I'm not betting on it.

Even with a good combine, history says Warmack will be available. If I recall correctly, the last time a guard was selected in the top 15 was in 1997 and between then and now there's only been 2-3 to go in the top 20.

Although LB isn't a need for us...I was browsing through the combine results for linebackers and this Cornelius Washington guy might have had the most impressive combine out of anyone, and yet I haven't heard him mentioned anywhere. I've never heard of him so I'm sure he had a pretty lackluster college career, but damn he blew up every combine drill. A 4.55 40 (2nd among LBs), 36 reps on the bench press (1st by a whole 7 reps), a 39-inch vertical (2nd), and a 128-inch broad jump (3rd). That combo of speed/athleticism and size/strength (he's 6'4 265 lbs btw) is insane.

I'm not saying we should ****** this guy up in the 1st round or anything, but he might be worth a 5th-7th round pick as a pass-rushing OLB or a DE. Seems like he has crazy potential. Anyone heard of this guy?

Person's take in full...

Granted, dropping passes doesn't hurt a corner as much as it would a receiver. Still, if he showed poor hands, that may indeed turn some teams off.

Lmfao at "dazzled" He looked horrible all day long. He was sketchy in his footwork and dropped everything. Person needs to stop slurping the kool-aid.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
