It will be interesting to see McClain finally run. And to see how good Mike Johnson and others look. Anyone else on Bama's squad I should pay attention to?
Back to work on pro day circuit .. After a day off, the pro day schedule picks up steam with a full slate of workouts this week including on-campus workouts at Utah on Monday, at Oklahoma and Auburn on Tuesday, Alabama and California on Wednesday, Nebraska on Thursday, while Ohio State and Michigan renew their rivalry of sorts with competing workouts on Friday.
Misi played around 260, he started dropping weight last season to prepare himself for a position switch in the NFL. He weighed in at 251 for the Combine. With the right diet/conditioning he can easily maintain speed/quickness at 255-260 again for NE. He is about 1.5" below the height target of 6'4", but his 32.5" arms are adequate for his height, he's versatile - lining up at 4-3 DT, 3-4 & 4-3 DE, 3-4 OLB, and in the Senior Bowl where he began getting national attention, he played 4-3 OLB. He's a natural for NE's defense in my book, height being the only "negative" as it were.If Jahvid Best goes too early, I want the Pats to draft Ben Tate. He sounds like a real character guy and he's really competitive. Believes he's better than Ingram etc. Reminds me of Brady and Welker. Those guys breath competitive fumes!
Koa Misi appeared to have a great pro day from most reports. He's a guy who could creep onto the radar for the Pats. But I wonder if he's BIG enough for their standards? Measured in at 6'3 244 lbs at the Senior Bowl.
