Re: 2014 NFL Draft

My only concern with Watson is the concussion issue. I seem to remember him having a few over the years (I could well be wrong). I agree we could make do but I have not paid much attet to TE in college so just wondering if any are comung out that could be worth watching.

Re: 2014 NFL Draft

Totally agree on combine being a pageant.

But it is fun to see just how athletic this generation of kids can be. The fact the Clowney CAN move that fast is incredible. Too bad he'll rarely use it

Re: 2014 NFL Draft

Round 1
Jason Verrett CB TCU 5095 176

Round 2
Jack Mewhort ROT/OG/LS Ohio St. 6060 306

Round 3
Weston Richburg OC Colorado St 6-3 298

This why i like it from round 3 on so many choices now after you get some measurable data and watch some drills on players you read about have watched but wonder about.

Josh Mauro, DE/DT Stanford 6054 276 4.98
Donte Johnson NC State FS/CB 6020 200 4.45
Howard Jones OLB/ILB Shepard 6022 229 4.54
Phillip Gains Rice CB 6002 193 4.38

6/7 UNDFA

Jerick McKinnon RB/WR/QB/DB/KR Georgia Southern 5090 209 4.41
Brandon Dixon NW Missouri St CB/FS 5112 204 4.41

right now if i could get more picks i would draft them all

that is the short list right now

WR is crazy as well RB so many good players tested better than thought.

still toying with OL and TE as well as DL and LB because i forgot to record it.

Actually, I see Janis going as high as the third after a great combine...
