[Dynasty] 2016 Draft Class (1 Viewer)

Moonshine said:
Docton coming in at 6-2 is a bit of a surprise to me. He wasn't a sure first round player (NFL draft, not Dynasty rookie draft) to start with, and coming in at 6-2 hurts.

He  high points the ball very well and can track better than just about any other wide receiver this year, but those two extra inches (TCU roster height of 6-4) would have been nice for his draft stock.

And his arms measured somewhat short too for a guy that was supposed to be a tall receiver. Plus, he does not have the 10+ hand you'd hope for from a tall receiver. Close at 9 7/8 but not quite. I doubt that he is going to have an elite amount of vertical either. One of the knocks against him was that he was going against small corners. As someone who is very high on Doctson this is all very concerning. He isn't physically special in any way. 

All that said, I still like him the same. 6'2 200 vs 6'4 195 all his traits remain but I do have to look at him differently. These next few days will be very important for him though. He can't be slower than 4.62 (Nuk ran a 4.61 which will be a big help for his NFL draft room supporters). He also has a lot to prove in his route running drills. We will see but his stock can definitely tumble over the next week.

Lawler's gonna be a player. If he hadn't gotten hurt he might have had 20 TDs this year.

Yeah I like him. He one guy that I'm pretty interested to see what some of his numbers are. Mostly 40 and vert, to be honest.

Rotoworld:

 

Stanford TE Austin Hooper is competing with Ohio State's Nick Vannett this week to become the second tight end off the board behind Arkansas' Hunter Henry, writes ESPN's Kevin Weidl.
 
"On tape, Hooper displays above-average size, athleticism and reliable hands in a crowd," Weidl wrote. "We expect Hooper to measure well at the weigh-ins. The wild card is the on-field testing. If he's able to display quality fluidity with his routes and catch the ball well during the workout portion, he has a chance to significantly help his stock in a tight end class that lacks quality depth near the top this year." The 6-foot-4, 249-pounder caught 34 passes for 438 yards and six touchdowns last season. Hooper's a potential second- or third-round selection.

Rotoworld:

 

Stanford TE Austin Hooper is working with former Cardinal TE Zach Ertz leading up the to NFL Draft.
Hooper could test as the top athlete this week at the NFL Combine, which could propel his name to the top of tight end rankings. Tight ends have been slow to produce in the NFL and every team seemingly needs another one. Ertz is more of a receiving tight end than the complete package, but there are very few all around types.

NFL Network just put up a graphic after Derrick Henry ran his 40, showing that in height, weight, speed, and vertical jump, his stats are spot-on identical to ... Von Miller.  :shock:

I don't know whether to be more amazed that Derrick Henry is that big, or that Von Miller is that athletic.

Disappointing to see that many N/As. If you're the top guy (or close too) then maybe but a few of these guys I think needed to show something.

Nice work! But man Drake's vertical is disappointing. I think every one of my 2nd grade students could beat that 4.45 inch vertical. 

 
NFL Media analyst Bucky Brooks compares Louisiana Tech RB Kenneth Dixon to Dion Lewis.
This is the second time in the past 10 days that we've read this specific comp, with Pro Football Focus doing it first earlier this month. This is how Brooks explained the Dixon-to-Lewis connection: "Versatile running back with quick feet and exceptional body control. Although he shined as an inside runner on draws and delays in the Bulldogs' spread offense, he is at his best when used as a dynamic pass catcher out of the backfield. Dixon runs routes like a receiver in space, exhibiting outstanding patience and body control while setting up defenders on option routes." The Panthers, Packers and Redskins may be attracted to a back like Dixon, Brooks thinks. The analyst perceives more limitations in Dixon's game than we do. "Dixon lacks the size, strength and hard-hitting running style to be a full-time RB1," he wrote. "He doesn't run with the force or pad level to break tackles in the hole. Dixon also lacks the physicality and toughness to hold up in pass protec

@MikeClayNFL

Looking at 40/Bench/Arms/Hands/Vert/Broad, RB "losers" were AlexCollins, Smallwood, Coprich, and especially Kelvin Taylor and Shad Thornton

One team has asked Georgia WR Malcolm Mitchell to go through DB drills at the NFL Combine.
Our mind immediately jumps to the Seahawks, since this class appears to lack corners with arms shorter than 32-inches, and that is the threshold for Seattle. Georgia offensive and defensive coaches seemed to fight over Mitchell during the early parts of his career, and that combined with injuries likely stunted his growth at a single position. Mitchell was viewed as one top corner recruits in the country out of high school.

At the NFL Scouting Combine, Mississippi State WR De'Runnya Wilson, Houston WR Demarcus Ayers and Auburn WR Duke Williams all failed to run the 40-yard dash in under 4.70 seconds.
For reference's sake, Wilson ran the 40 in 4.85 seconds, while Ayers and Williams logged 4.72 seconds at the event. It's no huge surprise that a few of these fellows struggled in the sprint. The 6-foot-5, 225-pound Wilson's a big target, but outside of that size, he's never had the huge speed element to his game. And Williams hasn't even been on a football team since Auburn dismissed him in early October. But back to Wilson. That 4.85 mark was bested by Penn State QB Christian Hackenberg (4.79), Michigan State QB Connor Cook (4.80) and tied with Arkansas QB Brandon Allen. Ouch.

TCU QB Trevone Boykin indicated that he's open to the possibility of switching positions if an NFL team asks him to do so.
While Boykin might be open to the possibility of moving on from his quarterbacking duties, the 6-foot-2, 205-pounder continues to believe that he can play the position at the NFL level. To that point, he actually rejected an invite to the Senior Bowl because he was being invited as a receiver. Still, TFY Draft Insider's Tony Pauline wrote in early February that Boykin "has been doing receiver work during his combine preparation." He's not participating in receiver drills in Indianapolis, but TCU's Pro Day still lies ahead and if NFL teams are backing off of him as a passer, we could yet see him running routes. For now, though, he's not committing to a position switch.
