Combine Time

[Patsfan1645]

Anxious to see how some of the guys we all have been talking about look this week. Shocker early on is now Sanders is not going to participate in the drills but will do interviews. I figured he would want to show how he stacks up to Ward, guess his daddy told him the name will carry you son.

It will. It's a shame because he's faster than Ward, he may as well show everyone in the 40, sort of ceding that ground there.

Pro day > combine for some... pretty sure a lot of the top athletes wait for their pro day to showcase themselves...

Interested in the progress of Josh Simmons rehab... It was said here that it was patella related but I've read it was an ACL injury... Clarity/update would be helpful

Reports on Sanders that he's not a first round talent. If he goes out and flops, then that confirms the reports. IMO, the reports must be true, otherwise, why wouldn't you go out and shut everyone up? What's the saying? It's better to keep your mouth shut and let everyone think you're an idiot than to open your mouth and confirm it? Sounds like that's the situation here.

Now before everyone jumps on me and says Caleb Williams didn't participate last year... he was widely considered the overall first pick for a while leading into the draft. This is not that.

Way to scoff at the Best QB in the Draft.

To be fair, Caleb's fingernail polish hadn't dried yet

What does the link say? Does it say Steve says? No? It says Tom Pelissero says.

Of all NFL things in the year I pay the least amount of attention to the Underwear Olympics.

The guys in the top 5 like Sanders I don't blame them for not attending the combine.. pro day is where it's at for guys..

Burn....

[turkeyneck]

I'm trying to see if that's metric or english but you'd need Ted Williams' vision to catch it.

Greatest car chase scene of all time!!

what are the odds Shedeur greatly limits his pro day, also?

my guess is he's going to do very little pre-draft, period

He's not a first round talent. You can tell that just by watching him.

- In an average draft, he'd be lucky to go Day 2. In a QB-heavy draft, he'd be lucky to go early Day 3.
- He'll go in the top 10, because outside of Cam Ward (another one who in a normal year wouldn't be a first round talent, btw), he's the only one with any possible ceiling that could reach 'average starting QB'.

Him not participating in the combine is the smartest thing he could do. I'm surprised Ward's participating, to be honest.

He didn't mention Cam Ward once.

I can see that... guys look at them as business commodities these days. The risk of injury is apparent.

the risk that he drops even farther in the draft, I agree........the more he shows up close, the more he drops

Yeah, if those arms measure out then he probably is worth considering with the #4 pick. If they don't, he might not even be the first lineman selected.

Personally... I'd rather just sign Alaric Jackson and not worry about this either way. Get firmly on board the Hunter/Graham/Carter train. But, that's just me. If he somehow measures out at like 34 inch arms or something then what the hell, worth considering.
