Growl's Senior Bowl South Practice Thread

Nfl draft scout has 4.56 as his 40 time. 4.45 is his low, if he can come and run that at the combine then he may surprise everyone and go late second, early third. But I'm guessing he'll be alot closer to 4.56 than 4.45

 

for sure i just think comparing his speed to anquan boldin is a little of the mark. But this guy has unbelievable body control and hands.

Wasn't comparing his speed to Anquan. Said in the link he can create seperation by being physical like Anquan. Said Hoffman knows how to get away with some of the little things.

look at the top 2 plays unreal

 

 

I love those "full game" videos.  So much better for the big picture than just watching highlight reels.

 

What i can see here...

 

Positives: Great height, awesome hands, good body control and strong focus (the falling down catch was amazing), knows how to use his body to shield defenders from the ball

 

Concerns: He's a tad lean (only 210 at 6'4), I'd want to see him put on some muscle, and then you've gotta see how that affects his game, kinda disappeared in the second half of that GT game

 

Overall: Definitely worth a look, guy with a frame like that could potentially be developed into a serious red zone threat, and many have said Newton needs taller receiving options

3rd round would be good a good place to grab him if he's still there. That catch against GT was insane.

i think he should go around the 2nd round, but i read some where that scouts do in fact like him a lot. another OT i have been watching cut ups of is Cameron Fleming from Stanford.

He's a guy who I've liked for a while too, but I haven't heard any projection on where he would go. Would be a perfect RT

    • Evero to the Raiders makes zero sense unless the OC he's pitching them is a failed HC who doesn't have interest in trying for it again. They're a team about to draft a QB #1 overall, developing him is job #1 for the new coach/staff.  Hiring a DC with a young up and coming OC wouldn't make any sense, because then you risk losing that OC to a HC job after maybe just a year or two and that young QB has to change system, play caller, etc. It's why hiring an offensive minded coach makes the only sense.  The Raiders have to make the right hire/pick with this HC hire and #1 pick combo because of that division they're in, it's a gauntlet and you can't screw up this opportunity.  
    • 1. Sadly, it's just too early to tell with Icky. And the draft will have come and gone before we have anything, FA, too probably. Njiman was good, but there's dollars to be invested there as well. This is really our biggest puzzle to figure out. And Moton on the other flank is getting long in the tooth, too.  2. Coker: Pay the man WR2 money.  3. Most WRs take three years before you really know what you've got. We'll know for sure by the end of this one and he's still on a relatively inexpensive rookie contract. Now if someone comes calling for a good, good trade... 4. This is the make or break for good teams vs bad teams. And depth development is essential. We've had a bit of that but there isn't a spot on our line that doesn't have worries except for maybe on guard.  5. I think you draft the best ILB, the smartest one in the first round and don't look back. People lost their poo here on this board when we "wasted" a pick on Luke Kuechly.  6. Yeah, I think Chuba is a workhorse. But we need to be more decisive in his use. Still not sure Rico doesn't come back next season, too. He'll get to see the marketplace first, though, and we'll offer similar numbers to him.  
    • I've grown to enjoy Mike & Tripp, even more so after listening to the ESPN, TNT, TBS hacks who, for whatever reason, seemingly don't know dick about the Canes.
