Pick only one. Who was the one player that impressed you the most at the combine.

 

For me, it was Jason Verrett (CB, TCU) today. The kid was impressive all afternoon. He tested very well, showed great speed (4.38), and my favorite part of all was his attitude. Verrett came in and was all about competing. Had his game face on the whole time, and didn't even flinch talking to Deion.

Although he didn't have a flashy combine Pryor is still my favorite with Cooks as a close second. I also like Gilbert and Fuller.

 

I noticed Allen Robinson struggled at the combine he could be there at our second round pick. I agree about Verrett he stood out today 

 

WR: Watkins, Evans, Cooks, Mathews, Lee, Robinson

CB: Gilbert, Fuller, Verrett, Desir, Exum, SJB, McGill

S: Pryor and Clinton-Dix

DL: Aaron Donald, Justin Ellis, Kareem Martin

 

Didn't get to see the OLinemen but I heard Greg Robinson ran out of the building

I have to say that Clowney's performance at the combine impressed me the most .There should be very little doubt that he should be taken as the 2014 NFL draft's top overall selection. However, Houston is looking for a QB,so this may not happen.

 

I've been impressed with Clowney too, but I'll be honest and say his 21 reps on the bench are not impressive for a position where strength is key.... his speed makes up for it some I'm sure, but 21 reps at 266 lbs is not very good.

I feel sure the coaches will have Clowney hitting the weights a lot this year.However,Clowney is all about speed and relies very little on the bull rush,so I don't feel his under achieving with the reps is a major concern. Nothing, in my opinion, that can't be worked on and improved.

      Ppl want to trade Melo? Am I wrong for thinking that would be a bad idea?

      Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.

      It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?
