Default Rolando McClain Pro Day

Somewhat disappointing. He ran the forty in 4.6 range but became sick during position drills. He later revealed that he has been battling Chrons Disease since his freshman year in high school. This might make him tumble in the draft. I however would still be thrilled if we drafted him.

Well I have colitis, so I definitely know what he's going through. Its tough because he will have a hard time keeping his weight on. Fitigue is another factor I'd be worried about.

If only Belichick were on speaking terms with his college Head Coach to see how it affected him on the field....

Wow, that's tough. Chron's can be unpredictable, with flare-ups and remissions. Kudos to him for managing it well through college, but realistically it has to affect his draft assessments.

Dry humor?


Because we know BB asked him about Mt. Cody.

Could this be a gift from Saban to Belichick?? - Extra Points - Boston.com

Chron's disease is tough. You really have to watch what you eat, and like 2_law_4 said, keeping your weight up can be difficult during the flareups. And it's gotta be really tough if you have a flareup on gameday...

This will be interesting to see how far he falls because of this. I feel bad for the guy.

Yeah, re-reading it may have been intentional sarcasm/overstatement. It was over my head, though
