2016 Draft Prospect Thread

Small school guy

DE Matt Judon - Grand Valley State

6'3" / 275....sub 4.6/40

can play OLB, also
 
Interesting. Seems a bit tight, though, based on agility numbers and this analysis:

NFL Events: Combine Player Profiles - Matt Judon

Of course, I could fix that if he came to train with me. Give me 6 months and he'll be doing splits, handstands, and walking the tight rope.

level of competition notwithstanding, he's got pretty impressive awareness and physicality

 
Potential late round RB sleeper?

Darius Jackson, 6', 220lbs

Pro day:

4.36 forty (reported)
41" VJ
11'1" BJ
4.27 shuttle
6.82 3 cone

Scouting report


Those are incredible #s for a man his size, but…why is he rated so low (#534 by NFLDraftScout,
not at all by NFL.com)?

He played for one of the worst teams in CFB and didn't put up stellar numbers. Just over 1,000 yards I believe. Did have 14 TDs though.
 
Wel since we went after Johnson this kid maybe on the late radar
 
I want Josh Doctson to be a Patriots badly.

I don't think he's going to make it to us. I like him too, but I have to wonder how much his tendency to alligator arm passes over the middle would concern BB, though.

Anyone that could stomach the absolute sinkhole that is Eastern Michigan football has demonstrated mental toughness. That combined with his athleticism makes him worth watching.
 
What do you guys think of Jakeem Grant, WR Texas Tech as a UDFA prospect? He's small but lightning quick. He has a great quick twitch and the top end speed to break things open once he gets outside. He would be potent in the screen game and could also contribute as a returner on special teams. Having watched him, he reminded me a lot of a shiftier Wes Welker from his college days.

Very explosive but tiny. Dri Archer?

Ps why does it say banned under your name?

He is small. That's why he'll go undrafted. Unlike Archer, though, Grant used to be a power lifter. I've seen him drive some safeties back on blocks.

Just a joke. I put that in myself to confuse people.
