For me, if the WRs don't jump out with a fantastic time or a super slow time, this doesn't do anything for them.

 
NFLN guys are saying Julio edged Green today winning if there was a competition between the two. Smidge better in most.

 
Missed the name, someone was at 5 secs and Mayock kept saying "that's not right" and Eisen "that's why they run it again"

 
Ryan Mallet is the most polished thrower in this class. If Jay Cutler and Eli Manning can have success in the NFL, Ryan Mallett can have success in the NFL. He certainly didn't lay down and die against Ohio State. In fact, had his receivers caught the damn ball they probably would have won all on his shoulders. It is foolish to dismiss him because you like comparing anyone with a bunk personality to Ryan Leaf and Jeff George.

What is the correlation between Eli / Cutler / Mallett?
 
So how long til this Edmond Gates guy can contribute in the NFL? Is he like Ramses Barden and it'll take a few years? He's "scoring" well today

 
Julio had trouble with his landing and did the long jump three more times. He was about 11.5 feet every time. 9ft 9 inches avg jump last year for WRs.

 
Interesting comment that Julio may have moved above pick 14 now which would mean neither he nor Green would be there for Rams

I think he was simply mentioning two that panned out. Mallett has been compared to every bust in the history of football after one bad presser so the negatives are super exaggerated right now

Eli has the personality of a wet mop and Cutler is an obvious head case who has still been able to lead a team to a NFC championship game. Seems that so many around here just want to dismiss Mallett because he seems to be socially inept. He may be the only passer in the draft that can make the ridiculous throws that only the best of the best can make.

Neither eli or cutler are crackheads though.
 
There was a guy with an odd O name that played for the Saints, or sat on their practice squad, Anyone remember him? He's probably a good person to bring up and throw some reality at these WR combine stats

 
During this simple WR drill where they catch it before the sideline, a few QBs have thrown bullets while others are throwing nice catchable balls. I'd hold that against the QB.

Next drill, Cam just threw it to the inside shoulder when clearly it was to be thrown outside. He was first thrower and coach literally just finished telling him what to do.

 
Who is WR 35? Dude has some small guns, does well and makes a face like nothing special, he just did his job, who is up next? He's small but I'd bet coaches are liking him

 
Denarius Moore from TEN looked great in this catch drill. Everyone's pressing and he was "cool lester smooth."

Salas looked good but dropped one and fumbled another running up sideline.

Torrey Smith has gigantic hands, football looks like a softball in his hands.

Terrance Turner focused, methodical looking.

Jimmy Young looked better than Titus Young. Titus was dogging it which is unacceptable IMO.

Re Torrey, most of these guys have big hands, but he knows it. Got both hands, whole hand(s) on the ball each time, Not fingertips etc. I bet there's something to that.

:eek: Hands measured at 8 5/8 inches... very very small for a WR.

 
FWIW Marshall Faulk called this the Mark Ingram show, he loves Mikel Leshoure

Jacquizz Rodgers compared to McCluster's usage in KC.

Mayock loves Thomas mentioned him being split wide.

Charles Davis says scouts N GMs favorably discussing Rodgers

Watched his gauntlet, didn't look like he had small hands. Met the ball away from his body, soft catches, I don't think the hand size will be an issue.

Well, if a wet mop can lead a team through an improbable SB run, i'd draft those wet mops all day...
 
QB16 most impressive of first five in deep passes

Stanzi seemed to overthrow all these fast guys, nice looking ball but ....

Cam sweet looking passes, effortless. Not one caught. They were suhweet though.

Sharpe saying might be one of those guys that doesn't do well in drills

Denarius Moore gets another good comment from NFLN guys in this QB drill.

Switching sides

first two WRs made sweet grabs of balls thrown behind them.

QB name Van Camp? looked good.

Yates looks super nervous

Cam messed up drop, overthrew, third one WR tripped

Ponder hesitated, nice throw next two

I don't like Portis at all today.

Stanzi keeps looking good but as the camera slides to the WR the balls are way off. As if he has never played with WRs this fast.

 
Cam Newton is overthrowing people like crazy in the passing drills. He's got some major accuracy issues to work out.

 
Cam horribly overthrew WR after like 30 consecutive perfect throws by everyone else.
I didn't think his deep passes were too bad. A couple of passes were just a tad too deep for the receiver. I rather have a QB miss long than short. But the sideline passes were bad.
 
Denarius Moore is about the 27-32nd ranked WR doing a quick scan of some sites. We can probably use him to see impact of a good combine. See what his ranking is in a week

Mallet will never be a NFL QB. He doesn't have the head for it and the kid can't handle pressure from the front 7, is a terrible decision maker and is inaccurate on the run.
 
Stanzi must have thrown 20 passes today that looked sweet and was nowhere near the WR. Announcers saying he's throwing to a spot. Good idea, but if everyone isn't catching them where he thinks the spot is is incorrect.

Portis Cam and Taylor 10-6 long jump

Announcers said Portis looked great on one throw, but the WR was literally on his knees coming back to get it. I have totally been unimpressed with Portis today

I rewound during commercial, Green is not in this list of top 10 WR times, just an FYI
 
Titus Young out with a cramp. Guy didn't give full effort and now leaves with a cramp

 
RBs coming up. Ingram using a rolling pin looking thing to warm up his thighs as he stretches.

QBs doing vertical now. I don't care about this.

Ingram with hood on looks like he's getting focused in pregame.

No one around anywhere near as intense, simply stretching and taking it easy

Did they explain the difference between the how two unofficial results from earlier and the current list is generated? Eg. Denarius Moore ran 4.37 and 4.44 according to them earlier - but is now listed as 4.45.
