The running backs class is considered to be one of the best in years and nearly all disappointed with very pedestrian 40yd dash times with a couple of exceptions...

Keep an eye on North Carolina's T.J. Logan, who could be drafted as a change-of-pace running back; he ran the best 40 time for the RB group...

Coastal Carolina's DeAngelo Houston, was also among the fastest, similar in build to MI, shifty runner with great speed to the corner should move up my board...

Houston was also one of the few RBs to do more than 20 reps on the bench press; he's moving up my board...

Very interested in the medicals of UL-Lafayette RB Elijah McGuire, who was injured his senior season, hasn't been the same runner and may still be bothered with his foot injury...

Tarik Cohen, the Human Joystick and is compared to Darren Sproles, also had one of the better timed sprints...

Rounding out the 40 yd performers was Utah's Joe Williams; he's not on my board though because of some squirrel-ly behaviour where he retired for a month not to mention he has fumble-itis...

In the BP drill for the O-Line group, a couple of things jumped out...

Guard prospect Corey Levin from Tennessee-Chattanooga did better than expected with 26 reps, right there in the pack with the blue chip prospects...

USC Tackle Chad Wheeler, who had core strength questions, and coming from that program with those resources, O-line tradition had only 15 reps - now that takes him off my board...

Isaac Asiata led the group with 35 (also a great interview) definitely bumped his stock, possibly into the 3rd round...

Forrest Lamp, Western Kentucky, was one off the lead with 34 reps; he likely won't make it past the Pats, who released Sebastian Vollmer...

LSU's Ethan Pocic & Indiana's Dan Feeney each had a respectable 26 reps...

Less than 25 reps for an O-line prospect coming from a Div I school should raise a flag...

Levin, Pocic, and Feeney also ran good 40 yd times for their class...

Foster has been reported to be a bit of an off the field head case caught with a gun.

O.J. Howard is looking better?

Hadnt heard the rest of that
No excuses for Foster there


The sad thing is he will fall to the mid first round and a team like Baltimore/Bengals will do a reclemation job on him and he will end up an all pro.
