LMAO TSE, you have absolutely NO football knowledge. Before you call someone ignorant, slap your parents in the face for raising such a cocky no it all that actually don't know anything.... at all!
After that, then call me ignorant, cuz the only thing I've done to make me ignorant is keep reading your post.


This nerd needs a swirly

By all accounts, Suh has been praised for his strength in the trenches. McCoy gets praised for his speed/mobility.

I guess the combine results (are McCoy and Suh both there?) will tell us who has more brute streength.

Suh weighed in at 305. McCoy weighed in at 295. I'm very disappointed in McCoy that he didn't get his weight up. Suh is now that FAR favorite imo.

Bradford at #1 is picking up steam. If it happens, Lions will have their choice of guys there at #2.

He was 372 at weigh in's at the senior bowl and still was one of the bright spots of the practices and the game. He dropped 20 pounds in the last 2-3 weeks. Ridiculous!


He did good. But people are still concerned because he gained weight before the Senior bowl. According the NFL network, scouts that saw him are worried about why he gained weight between his bowl game and the senior bowl, and how he lost the weight now. They are worried he can just gain it all back after the draft.

He did what he should have done. But it's still a huge red flag for teams.

Just read that the Lions were the first team to interview Suh yesterday. :D I still expect them to interview McCoy, Okung, Berry, etc..... but Suh was first.

WR and RBs today in the combine. I'll be watching.

Was kinda impressed with the OL yesterday, but didn't see Jon Asamoah in there. Did see John Jerry, Bruce Campbell, Ed Wang, etc.

As athleticism goes, my OT ranks go like this:

Bruce Campbell
Russell Okung
Trent Williams


Mitch Petrus REALLY surprised me. That guy absolutely tore up the bench press and all the guys in his group loved him. John Jerry was very VERY fast for being considered a monster mauler. He ran a 5.18 40 which was 2nd in his group.

If Schwartz were to pass up Suh for somebody, Okung and Berry are the only two I wouldn't be too upset about.

Whether it's Bradford or Claussen that's fine with us, so long as it's a QB. Although no surprise there, I posted on this board that I was certain the Rams would draft a QB if they keep the pick long before Schefter came up with the idea. He's much slower than me and he just figured out the logic that they have to take a QB if they stay there and now he's acting all smart and proud about it. I doubt it was his idea originally otherwise he would have come forward sooner about it, he probably read tons of info on the boards and just figured out that it was obvious and then did his homework to make sure he knew which of the two QBs were most likely to be favored by the Rams. So it's not really a question of "if" it happens, but when. :)

Dex McCluster just outbenched most RB's. 20 reps and he only weighs 172. That's not even human. This fool is going to be drafted in the 1st round.

McCluster won't be drafted in round 1 - although his benching results are quite impressive.

Maybe the Chargers....who are rumored to possibly be releasing Sproles (or have they already?).

Chargers will pick Ryan Mathews. This guy is an absolute stud and number 1 RB on my BB. He did everything right today, and reminds me A LOT of Ladainian Tomlinson when he first came into the league.

I'll be looking forward to the DT number at the combine. We can at least get some solid stats on these fellas. They came in at virtually the same body numbers...both 6'4'', Suh 10 pounds heavier.


And PP, to answer I dont know if anyone answered it yet, but footballsfuture.com is updating the combine numbers as they go. I think you asked about that earlier

Great, thanks ajax, much appreciated!

Bartender - you have Mathews over Spiller?

If Rams take Bradford, then we can get Suh and trade for Dorsey, we could have league's best DT's in 2 years....SCARY GOOD.

Looking at the combine results, some players that stood out to me:

RB's:
Joique Bell (Wayne State) only ran a 4.65 40

Ben Tate (Auburn) and Ryan Mathews (Fresno) had the best combination of size and speed; Tate is 5'11", 220 and ran 4.43 and put up 26 reps while Mathews is 5'11 5/8", 218, ran a 4.45, and put up 19 reps.

Best was fastest with a 4.35 40


CB's:
Haden and Warren came in at the exact same size - 5'11", 193.

A guy with great size is Josh Pinkard (USC) at 6'1", 214 lbs. Will be interesting to see his 40 time...


WR Scott Long (Louisville). Don't know anything about this guy, but his combine numbers jumped out at me - could be a good late-round WR to look into. 6'2 1/8", 216, ran a 4.46, put up 20 reps, had a 41.5 vertical, 6.45 cone, and a 10'3" broad jump - exceptional numbers across the board. Anyone know anything about this guy?

After today I do. Mathews has the speed to run with Spiller and Best and the power to pound it down the middle with Blount and Dwyer.

I see Ladainian Tomlinson ALL over him.
