Re: 2023 NFL Draft Discussion
Won't lie...I'm glad Branch had a bad 40 because I don't want him or any safety in this draft @15.

Re: 2023 NFL Draft Discussion
Ooof. I still don't think a slow 40-time is a big deal, but yeah, unless he just kills it in the other drills, that overall athletic score is pretty brutal.

Re: 2023 NFL Draft Discussion
Wtf is cbssports talking about in their winners/losers of the combine?
They said Van Ness never started for Iowa? Am I missing something?

It's accurate. He's never started a game for Iowa.

2023 NFL Scouting Combine: The Packers and Relative Athletic Score
"Since 2018 when Gutekunst took over as GM, he has made 48 draft picks, and 42 of them have registered a RAS score. Of the 42, 30 have scored 8.0 or higher, with 18 in the 9-plus range and 12 scoring between 8.0 and 8.99. Only eight players, however, have scored below 7.0, and six of them have been Day 3 picks. Only Amari Rodgers was a top-100 selection."
We're taking a guy with 9+ RAS in R1.

It's accurate. He's never started a game for Iowa.
Then it's his Wikipedia that is wrong because it says he became a starter for Iowa this year.

Re: 2023 NFL Draft Discussion
I never thought Safety was ever in play at #15 and the testing makes that a moot opinion. Bad Safety class.
TE at #15 has a terrible ROI.
ER still makes the most sense to me if you factor in need. A very deep class so Gute could even trade down 5 spots or so if a team was desperate to move up.

Is milk a huge part of NFL culture?
Please reconsider your animal consumption.

Milk and steroids are the staple of the NFL

Young measured the same height as Kyler and 3 pounds lighter.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Anyone able to watch more than 10 consecutive minutes of the Combine has my admiration.

Re: 2023 NFL Draft Discussion
Some of these receivers are moving a lot slower than I anticipated.

Taken as a whole group, isn't the consensus that this group of WR's is weaker than the last couple of years crops?

It's not a good group if you're looking for a #1.
