2013 NFL Scouting Combine Thread

[Dissonance]

Post all thoughts, info in here.

I'm probably in the minority, but seeing how quickly, confidently and smoothly Te'o answered all the questions at his press conference today makes me believe his story even less. He's obviously a pretty intelligent guy, and seems to "get it" too much to have truly been duped.

As far as the on the field stuff, I don't really think it means a whole lot but how crazy is it that an offensive lineman ran a 4.71 40 yard dash? Dude is listed at 320 pounds.

I watched this for probably 2 hours today in the background. Didn't realize it was just kickers and O-Line today. Some of the worst TV I've ever seen.

Very interested in what Tavon Austin runs.

I did too, but to me it was worth having on just for Mike Mayock's insight. Dude is the best in the business.

Shocking stuff about Montgomery and Mingo.


Montgomery admits bets with Mingo, lack of effort at LSU




Oh, hope the Ravens check out Jarvis and Ozzie makes teams pay

More rumblings


Day on of the field workouts is now complete at the 2013 NFL Combine and the news is flying in downtown Indianapolis. Here’s the latest on Jarvis Jones, the New York Jets and Arizona Cardinals.

- Word circulating in downtown Indianapolis this evening is Jarvis Jones/OLB/Georgia could make a DaQuan Bowers type drop in the draft due to his medical issues. Many who have spoken with Jones tell us he seems resigned to the fact he’s likely to drop.

- Hearing the New York Jets understand they won’t be able to afford to resign LaRon Landry. One less expensive option they will consider is Glover Quin, if the Houston Texans don’t resign him. The word is the Texans will do all they can to resign Quin.

- Speaking of the Jets, I’ve been told by several sources that a number of veteran players were miffed by the fact many of the teams rookies were not seeing more playing time towards the end of the 2012 season. One player they point to was seventh round pick Jordan White, whom they said was ready to see extensive action, especially considering the teams woes at the receiver position, yet barely saw the field.

- To expand on a post from yesterday, we’ve been hearing since October that Sam Montgomery/DE/LSU was not receiving rave reviews from his college coaches. More to the point I was told the LSU coaches have been slamming him. Montgomery’s attitude and personality did not sat well with a number of his former teammates or coaches.

- It should come as no surprise to anyone but the Arizona Cardinals have told people the plan is to come away with a starting offensive tackle from the first two rounds of April’s draft.

- Keep this in the back of your mind; Arthur Brown/LB/Kansas State has a shoulder “issue” that bears watching. It specifically kept him from participating in the Senior Bowl.

- We tweeted yesterday the Florida pro-day is being moved back to March 20th from the 12th. I’m told it was a direct result of free agency beginning the same day as well as the school offering additional time to allow a few injured players to properly prepare.

- More on the JaMarcus Russell comeback. At the start of his comeback Russell tipped the scales at a robust 314-pounds but expects to be down around 265-pounds by his pro-day, presently scheduled for April 10th as was reported yesterday.

I can't wait to see what Montee Ball does

[BlakeJesus]

JaMarcus Russell gets a Pro Day?

Interesting tid bit on that Jets rookie WR, strange they wouldn't give him any burn. They clearly had no idea what they were doing on offense though, they were totally inept.

[roux2dope]

That Montgomery guy from LSU has to be the worlds biggest dumbass

[Knicks4life]

Tavon Austin unofficial 4.25 40.

[Knicks4life]

Marquise Goodwin unofficial 4.25 40.

[hobojoe]

Cordarrelle Patterson 4.37, Denard Robinson 4.34 unofficially.

We'll see what the official times are, there are some rumblings that Goodwin was hand timed by some at 4.19 or so.

[BlakeJesus]

Denard is a blazer, that kid is going to make a solid mid round pick.

[roux2dope]

Damn, 4.3 for Denard (the next Antwan Randle El) Robinson...impressive

[hobojoe]

Receivers as a whole have looked pretty bad catching the ball, especially on the go routes. Denard Robinson has actually been one of the better receivers. Smith, Manuel and Nassib have thrown it well. Robinson, Conner Vernon and Robert Woods have been the most impressive receivers IMO.
