Your Favorite Player After The Combine

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.

      QBs that would cost next to nothing and are better than anything we currently have.

      I am no football savant as has been demonstrated here over and over, but I saw it.  I went for years doing the mock draft thing and researching the players that we might get around our pick, time consuming stuff. And we would get to the draft and trade the pick. All that time, wasted.  So I quit doing that. Also realized I was not a scout and would never be a scout and went to looking the videos and reports After  we picked a guy.  Maybe I would look at the 1st round, but quit that too and just looked after we picked.    When they did that trade I saw Bryce and his size and just ruled him out. Then it got to yeah they are probably going to take him, I relented and looked at some video and got to his pro day. It took me all of a few minutes to see the issues. The footwork. The arm. And the tape of games? The backyard style. I knew, what can I say?  (Also, went down the physical checklist, not a single plus attribute on the NFL level. Arm, speed, size, etc, nothing to offset the negatives. nothing)  I think it was easy for me because I had not watched a single game he played in college,and wasn’t drawn in by the hype. Had no preconceived notions and just looked at it pretty clinically.  I got in here and everyone was going “but look at what he did in college! It is the SEC, if he can do it in the SEC he can do it in the NFL!” Couldn’t reason with hardly anyone.  I don’t think I could tell you which guy would succeed between two prototypical guys with great arms and athleticism, and have no special insight into any of that. My one calling in football scouting was to see the real about what we were about to do. And you still don’t know for sure until they get in a real game in the NFL.

      Miss Bryce sorely is possibly the most hilarious statement I have read on the Huddle in quite some time.

      He did only throw 1 pass 20+ in that game. I think he is still struggling to adjust to the NFL. At Alabama he was able to extend plays and play backyard football. That's not only not the style of offense we have been running but his physical skills don't lend themselves to that style of play at this level.  So, the amount of issues he actually has to clean up are WAAAAAY more than I anticipated as a guy that had Bryce #1 on my board in that draft class.  I am just not seeing a reasonable path for him to clean it all up and develop in a reasonable timeframe
