Re: 2016 NFL Draft Prospect Thread ...............
 

Pro days have started.

OLB Stephen Weatherly Vanderbilt

Outside linebacker Stephen Weatherly was the only player from these two schools to get an invite to the 2016 NFL Combine. He ran a 4.61 40 (t-6th)), had 23 reps on the bench press (4th), and had a 31 inch vertical (t-19th). He stands 6'4 and weighed in at 267 pounds. His 34 1/2 inch arm length was No. 1 among linebackers, and would have been tied for 8th among defensive linemen AND linebackers. He appears to be a day three prospect, who could eventually work his way into the starting lineup if he can turn his physical tools into production. He strikes me as a guy who could very well be on Trent Baalke and Chip Kelly's respective radars.

TE Steve Scheu,6046 253 7/FA
many felt should have been invited to the combine, had a good day. Scheu reportedly was timed the 40 in the high-4.6 range; and given that that is likely a hand-timed clocking figure that his actual time is somewhere in the mid-4.7 range. Scheu also has 23 reps in the bench press.

FS R.J. Williamson reportedly ran even faster with an unofficial hand-timed 40 in the mid-to-high 4.4 range which likely translates to somewhere in the 4.55 range. Williamson, who was at the Shrine all-star game, also had a 35″ vertical and a 10-4 long jump

P/K Ryan Hawkins, who led all punters in the FCS ranks with a 46.0 average kick last fall, though, demonstrated plenty of leg strength as both a punter and kicker.

NFL Scouts to Visit Winnipeg for Bisons’ Onyemata
March 4, 2016 03:17 PM

All eyes of the NFL will be on David Onyemata March 14.

The University of Manitoba Bisons defensive lineman will hold a pro day football workout for at least 12-16 NFL scouts.

Onyemata, 23, has made a lasting impression at the CIS level and continues to pursue a professional football career.

“I am looking forward to the opportunity to work out for NFL scouts,” said Onyemata. “I appreciate coach (Brian) Dobie and his staff and the support they have shown me.”

Well, either they got what they needed in interviews at the combine and don't won't to show their hand...

Or, he had that 'crazy, junky, down-n-da-hood look' in his eyes that scared the white out of 'em and don't want him walking the hallways of their buildings...

Wonder if Ireland asked him if he'd pimp him mom to score a hit?!?

Re: 2016 NFL Draft Prospect Thread ...............
 

Shaq Lawson seems a one-trick pony bust of a first round pick to me...

We haven't done well with running backs from Ohio State, and Ezekiel Elliott doesn't have a stellar social media record with his coaches, teammates...

My position is clear with regards to Treadwell...

I see the two Bama guys different with regards to positon...

A'Shawn Robinson I see as a NT and will be as good John Jenkins, not worth a first round pick, and will need better players around him as he enjoyed at Bama...

Now, Jarran Reed is someone I could see taking at No. 12 and would be an excellent DE or NT in a 3-4 front;but with Dennis Allen as DC, that's not likely to happen...

Sheldon Rankins has Sedrick Ellis 2.0 written all over him; getting rolled up and out often, leaving linebackers exposed...

Michael Thomas, just not sold, something is just making my spidey-sense tingle that there's something not right...

Re: 2016 NFL Draft Prospect Thread ...............
 

These are guys I'm sure the Saints FO is looking closely at with pick #12.



Noah Spence is off my short list. His interviews must have been terrible.

Re: 2016 NFL Draft Prospect Thread ...............
 

If we moved back in the first round, I'd really like LaTech DL Vernon Butler, or even Clemson DE Kevin Dodd...

Billings, Rakins, all the same guys...I'm seeing Sedrick Ellis 2.0...

Darron Lee, Shaq Lawson could be in play for New Orleans Saints at No. - New Orleans Saints Blog- ESPN

With a 4.47 40 time, not a surprise his stock is rising.
