Brandon Graham out of combine

[Defsoul]

Our back up is from Mich State he isn't too shabby either...



what is with the state of Michigan and QB's?? They go to Michigan to play.



Tom Brady

They need to pick up Tim Hiller from Western Michigan with a late round pick. You can't have enough Michigan QBs

unless the cards and packers fall in love with him he should be out of the first round. but he wont get past KC at 36 or the browns at #38.

If you want a proper Gholston comparison - Jason Pierre-Paul.

Size wise yes. The difference is Gholston was highly touted because of his production in college (ie "The only player to record a sack on Jake Long"). JPP only played one true year, so you'd be picking the guy on potential alone.

That said, I still think he would make a better OLB then Gholston.

Interesting bit about Graham's physical attributes :

"Brandon Graham of Michigan showed he has the requisite speed to handle playing OLB if asked. He clocked a 4.69 40 early on, before tweaking a hamstring and sitting out the rest of the day. Graham often gets knocked for his lack of height, but I saw him standing next to TCU’s Jerry Hughes, a very similar player, and Graham’s shoulders were visibly higher and wider than Hughes’. Graham also had better 10 second splits than Hughes, who is universally lauded for his explosiveness. If Graham had a neck he’d be at least an inch and a half taller, and then nobody would question his top 10 draft status. I know the Seahawks, who pick at #6, were paying real close attention."

The Ohio State university is the place w/ the duds.




What's wrong w/ a biased POV?


Suh is no. 1 obviously.....

the writer was ooozing with Michigan passion

I had to post it

Jim Tressel is a loser


just sayin

Seriously this is without a doubt one of the dumbest posts I have read. Ohio State constantly produces NFL caliber players and Tressel is one of the best coaches in the NCAA.

Sounds like somone has a guarantee that he will be selected ino later than the late first round! Bill Polian would not do anything like that would he? Graham reminds me of Dwight Freeney except that Graham is much better against the run.
