This one is going to hurt for a long time.
Sir, at least you had a taste. Oh the pain!
As a hopeless draft geek, I couldn't help but go back and check Seward's combine numbers...
6'7" 288 4.28 39 43.5" 10'09" 3.92 6.62
It still boggles the mind that Demarcus Ware was drafted ahead of him in 2005.
A future HOF defender like Seward will not come cheap, Wilfork and a 2nd rounder maybe. The question is, will we plug in Seward at nose tackle and employ the 1-6 defense allowing six linebackers to roam the field while Seward occupies the entire offensive line, or use his speed at BOTH corner positipons?
either way, it sounds like a great trade, lets do it!
Umm, is this a joke? According to NFL.com Adam Seward is 6'3" 250. How'd he manage to lose 4" and 38 lbs?
According to this source his combine numbers were more like:
6'2" 248 4.60 33 36.5" 10' 4.11 7.17

Not bad numbers, but nothing to make Demarcus Ware nervous.
Are you kidding? This site was originally called Sewardfans.com, but there was no server on the planet that could handle the overwhelming amount of traffic.

This is the exact reason why combine numbers are not a good measure of a player.
Those numbers you posted are misleading, I'll explain
His 40 yard dash time was actually 100 yards, he roughly runs a 2 flat, but they can't slow him down. Think of the Juggernaut from the X-men. Rumor has it that an aircraft carrier jet cable was installed in Indy specifically to slow Seward after his run. The time reflects his momentum coming to a complete rest.

Secondly his height was taken from his shins up, they didn't have a ladder or tape measure that was big enough.
Third, the weight posted is actually of his football knowledge.
The cone time is also misleading because it is actually how long it took for Adam to eat all the cones.
This is the exact reason why combine numbers are not a good measure of a player.
Isn't it funny that even in a thread where Adam Seward's glory blots out the sun, numbers still seem persuasive?
p.s. a couple of those implausible numbers are taken from another player on the Pats' roster, anybody spot them?
