Does this "chronic" ankle injury scare anyone from taking Fournette?
I would not say zero concern but similar to Cook's shoulder and any other injury I'll defer to the teams medical staffs who will all be working with way more information then we will have available with more risk than we have on the line to commit a high pick on them. Meaning if a team commits a high pick on them, their medical issues won't scare me off.Does this "chronic" ankle injury scare anyone from taking Fournette?
I don't disagree with your position, but it can be mitigated with formations (bunch) and motion. What surprises is that more coaches don't take this path for these type of players.He will be lucky to be half as good as desean. The problem the little fast guys face is can they beat the press in the nfl.......
Right? People were probably saying the same thing about Phillip Dorsett and Tavon Austin a few years ago.He will be lucky to be half as good as desean. The problem the little fast guys face is can they beat the press in the nfl.......
San Diego State RB Donnel Pumphrey was returning punts during Senior Bowl practice on Tuesday.
Pumphrey is a possible pick for late on Day 2 or early on Day 3. Should he take to return duties in rapid fashion, that would certainly be something that could enhance his value for NFL squads. However, it should be noted that (predictably) San Diego State's star back returned just five kickoffs in his career with the Aztecs and did not return a punt.

Watching everyone but the TEs but O.J. Howard keeps stealing my attention. Highest rated prospect entering the week and living up to it.

#OleMiss TE Evan Engram. I forgot he's a listed tight end. Moves, explosives and changes direction like a WR #SeniorBowl
Draft Analyst's Tony Pauline passes along that Colorado QB Sefo Liufau has struggled during Tuesday's Senior Bowl practice in Mobile.
Pauline writes that Liufau is "having accuracy issues to all levels, struggling with decision-making and [scuffling to] power passes outside [the] hashes" during Tuesday's practice session. The 6-foot-4, 230-pounder has received some talk as a possible sleeper project ala Dak Prescott, with one NFL executive praising his intangibles, toughness and accuracy on short-to-intermediate passes near the beginning of January. Not off to the best start by Pauline's observation, but there is still plenty of time for Liufau to make his NFL case.

How did it take 32 pages to get to the obligatory "Every Single Free-Agent and Rookie Ever is Going to the Patriots" post?There's a link to a mock, it has Mixon going to NE. If he get drafted by NE the Dynasty community would go nuts!
Including me! Lol!

Go nuts as in it's a good spot or go nuts because he's be a patriot rb and be phased in and out of game plans on a week to week basis?There's a link to a mock, it has Mixon going to NE. If he get drafted by NE the Dynasty community would go nuts!

So the North coaches lined up 4-3 defensive ends as 3-4 defensive ends. How useful.
HEY!If you play PIT, you don't have to worry about that. ZING!!!!

What do you think will happen?Snorkelson said:Go nuts as in it's a good spot or go nuts because he's be a patriot rb and be phased in and out of game plans on a week to week basis?
Mixon wasn't involved in domestic violence. Maybe NE's stance is wider and it extends to any violence towards a woman, not sure.menobrown said:I guess anyone can go back on their word but if anyone thinks NE is eyeballing Mixon they might want read this again: Patriots have no gray area
Is that because grey is a mix of white AND black?menobrown said:I guess anyone can go back on their word but if anyone thinks NE is eyeballing Mixon they might want read this again: Patriots have no gray area
The Rookie Scouting Portfolio's Matt Waldman says Grambling State WR Chad Williams displayed an "extra gear of separation" and "some explosion in and out of breaks" at Senior Bowl practices.
The former Grambling star turned a strong week of NFLPA Bowl practices into an invitation to the Senior Bowl. Williams caught 90 passes for 1,337 yards and 11 touchdowns in 2016 to earn an FCS All-American nod. Williams is projected as a late-rounder, but he could sure help his cause by having a big week in Mobile.

Yes and no. Kupp has been terrific, but anyone who watched his tape expected this. Biggest impression for me might be GSU WR Chad Williams.

@dpbrugler has kupp made the biggest impression so far at the senior bowl?
Draftwire's Luke Easterling projects Ole Miss TE Evan Engram as a Day 2 pick and says Engram made a good decision to return to school this past season.
Easterling's report comes in response to Engram having told Rotoworld's Josh Norris that he received some sixth-round projections after the 2015 season. Engram returned to school after hearing the tepid feedback. "Trust me, I wanted to leave last year," Engram told Rotoworld. "Before I talked with anybody, before I talked with coaches I had my mind set on leaving. And when the feedback came in ... a lot of teams had me in the sixth round. ... I didn't like the answer at first, but it definitely paid off." The 6-foot-3, 227-pounder now looks like a Day 2 prospect. "Engram is at his best as a receiving option, but he does not receive the credit he deserves for being willing and at least adequate when blocking on the edge," Norris wrote. Opined Easterling: "Engram is a dynamic pass-catcher with the athleticism to frustrate opposing defenses who don’t know how to adequately define or defend him."
