Re: 2017 NFL Combine - Saints Prospects
Some are saying he's lasting to the third round, but I'm not buying it...
I got him once in the third round so far; fans and writers may not be GMs and Scouts, but they're all seeing the same thing... Really like him or Watt for our second round pick... |

I'm really starting to warm up to Cunningham at OLB. 6'4 but his frame has room to put on a few pounds, can run with rb.'s and TE's.

Re: 2017 NFL Combine - Saints Prospects
The annual Under amour games.I am interested in the draft but the combine is really kind of boring.
I think that all the measurables are small part of the process. Players should be evaluated more on their film. Given all the money and effort teams spend on the draft it still is a crapshoot. Last year's draft appears at first sight to have been a successful effort. I hope that holds this year as well. Our teams talent pool is shallow on the defensive side and an obvious focus in this years Free agency and draft The constant hope is you can find one of the rare players that are so talented and driven that they raise the level of others around them I am speaking about the Ricky Jacksons Sam Mills type. We all yearn for the star All Pro types ,however it sometimes players that are just good enough that change the complexion of a teams fortune. The Remi Ayodele and Jabari Greer that make a difference. I have always liked that the FO has pursued all avenues to attempt to improve, Though players like CJ Spiller failed I like the fact that we tried. Darren Sharper was such an attempt that payed off. I wait excitedly to see what they try this year. |

Re: 2017 NFL Combine - Saints Prospects
The combine can "reveal" more about players...
The tape is most important, but you have to have an idea of the competition they're up against... Getting true height and weights is a big deal... The high jump and long jump can reveal the kind of player's burst at the line... A linemen who can't crank out the reps on the bench is a useful indicator... And not just the times, but well a player looks in the shuttle moves is good... I still think all the drills with the exception of the bench press should be done in full gear... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
