Curious as to what some of the NFL vets would do at the combine. NFL should bring back that skills competition they used to have at the pro bowl.

What would Smitty's current 40 time be? Google says his original 40 time was 4.41. Could he still run a 4.5? 4.6?

What could guys like DWill and Beason do in the bench press. Beason looks like a damn bodybuilder now. I'm guessing the high 20s.

Curious as to what NFL fans would do as well.

In the 40 I might could run with Rich Eisen and hit 6.0... hard to say, not a runner and definitely not a sprinter.... I'd probably break/pull something.

Definitely could do the bench press though... last time I benched last week I hit 10 reps at 225 with strict form in my third set and could've done more... none of this bouncing off the chest stuff they do. Pretty sure I could get 16-18 if I did the drop and bounce like they do.

What's your 40 time?

Your buddy doing 15 reps at 225 at 150lbs is impressive. Some of these players (Mattheiu doing 4) is unimpressive. Good thing his position doesn't require strength.

Just watched a video of a kid, saftey prospect Shamarko Thomas, ran a 4.42 (and fell down at the end) and benched 28 times. Impressive.

Beason better hit up the 40s. My buddy (5'6 150lbs) is damn smaller than he is and he's repping 15-20 like nothing. I'm also kinda sad seeing these future NFL players barely getting 10 (Demontre Moore "12").

That is actually freakishly strong...

I'm sure he could be a professional weight lifter for his size.

I Dno about becoming a professional lifter. He has a wife and kid now and too busy in life lifting weight anymore. But the man is incredibly naturally strong. He's not built like your stereotypical strong guy. Small skinny man. I need to talk to him if he's still lifting. If he does I'll post a vid of it one day to prove that I'm not lieing .

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
