Lacy's 40 time will be very interesting. I think he is faster than Mark Ingram, but it might not translate to a 40 time, as his 10 yard split won't measure up. I wouldn't be surprised by anything in the 4.5-4.65 range. But I think he's plenty fast to break runs in the NFL, much like Foster and Martin. There isn't a guy I'm more pulling for than Lattimore. It was awful watching him with the towel over his head and seeing his mom react.
Yep he definitely went up in my book due to his weigh in. I'm not sure he breaks a 4.5 though.
There's a bunch of top end talent. Just not the talent they really need.Teams that run a 3-4 defense that don't need a left tackle are in a bind when the #1 spot doesn't offer the QB they DO need.
There was a link around that Bell speciafally lost weight for the combine and was probably at least 10 pounds heavier during the season.
As long as his forty is not north of 4.7 it's a non story.
He needs to put on some muscle.
Yea, that is surprisingly thin. I'm surprised that he's 20 pounds less than Patterson. Especially given his height advantage. You never quite know what you're going to get until these guys tip the scales. Last year I could've sworn Blackmon would be 215-220 and he only came in at 207.
Dang, I knew in my last mock that I had him way too low. Now I'm thinking he could even go to the Jags at #2.
I'm just copy/pasting from Rotoworld, but they're doing a nice job with the updates.
Amen.
What times will these be on NFL network?
Blackmon did come in at 215 at his Pro Day.
Worth noting that a lot of those have been rounded to the nearest inch. They'll probably be updated to include the eighths in the next day or two.
Pretty much on repeat all day.
I don't think the draft is stud-heavy this year, but it's deep. You could see some pretty strong prospects falling into the 20s of this year's rookie drafts IMO.
I agree. I traded 1.02 for 1.05 and 1.07 in one of my leagues (also have 1.10). Not a top heavy draft at all, but quite a few guys I like. I'm going quantity over quality with 1st round picks this year in the leagues I have roster room for. Could be a great year to build on the cheap by collecting later 1sts and 2nds.
Sounds like a guard or RT
NFL Media PR @InsideNFLMediaMike Mayock: OL Terron Armstead's 4.65 40-yard dash (unofficial) is equivalent to a WR/RB running a 4.1 40-yard dash #NFLCombine
What is Stedman Bailey and Tavon Austin?
those mitts are giant for a 5'10" guy. Im trying to figure how they measure the hands. Thumb across to pinky? or middle finger down to wrist?
They spread out the hand and it's pinky to thumb.
Bailey is off the chart -- in too good to be true territory. No idea what that suggests for him in the NFL yet. Will be some guesswork on him since there aren't any/many good comps. Also waiting to see if he's 69.5" or 70.25" and what he runs. A smaller Golden Tate might be about right.I think Austin's like Percy Harvin -- where the traditional measures don't tell you very much. It's going to be all about the scheme and if a team is willing to use him in a hybrid back/slot role. Guys like him and obvious developmental guys Patterson I'm not very good with.
Can't wait to see him run some routes!!
