The Official NFL Combine Thread


Recommended Posts

all numbers hold value, 40 for a player that mainly moves backwards is ugh. 10 yard split has more value, i believe for all players. running 40 on a track surface without pads and after months of practice is well nearly a fake time.

 

unless a team runs a pulling guard system, 40 is near pointless. it does help to see the ability and if hes in-shape.

 

 

getting a guy running his top speed at 10 yards > getting a fast 40. 

Fast means better feet and agility. It's no surprise all the top 5 rated OT run sub 5.0. Athletic ability is important.

"Heavy legged", "grabber", "every pass protection play could've been called a hold", "some guys like him in the 2nd - 3rd round range others don't like him at all"

Mayock on Tiny Richardson.

 

Davis said something about a medical flag popping up as well.i wonder what that may have been.

I must admit that I'd rather be looking at the receivers. Of course I'm guessing that the receivers will come Monday or something when I'm at work. The Combine is just background noise for me today.  That one dude that benched 42 reps is one strong mutherfuger though.

    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
