The 2015 NFL Combine Thread

Max Valles 6'5" 251#. Shortish arms (32 5/8", same as Bud Dupree). 9 3/8" hands.
Bernardrick McKinney 6'4" 246#. 33" arms, 9" hands.

Love the long arms on Obum Gwacham and Danielle Hunter.

Valles is going to be a player that rises up boards especially now that he is over 250lbs.

@MoveTheSticks: I'm not all the way on board with the Scherff hype. He gets beat a lot in pas pro. Maryland game was rough.

Marcus Hardison:


Right now my dream would be Gurley - Hardison - Marpet with the 1st 3 picks. I'd like to pick up an EDGE player in the late 3rd/early 4th, so I'm hoping for Max Valles or that Hunter falls.

I just read that Gurley refused to let the combine doctors examine his knee, that could send his stock into a tail spin.

Marcus Hardison 6'3" 307#, 33 1/2" arms, 10 3/8" hands. Good numbers. 4# lighter than the Senior Bowl, which should help his numbers a bit.

Ellis McCarthy 6'5" 338#, 34 1/8" arms, 9 7/8" hands.

I'd love to get Hardison on day 2 and McCarthy in the 4th round. A lot of size and athleticism with that combination.

Andre Monroe destroyed him. Shame he's so short. Put Scherff at OG and he'll destroy defenders though.

Per @TonyPauline WR Justin Hardy is aiming for combine 3 cone record. Get ready to mock him to the Patriots in the 3rd round.

I don't know about a tail spin, but it won't help. It's understandable that he was nervous given that the medical exam apparently injured Tyler Kroft. But given that medical update as the #1 issue with Gurley, it can't help.

1 (or with a trade back). Todd Gurley, RB.
2 (maybe with a small trade back). Marcus Hardison, DT/DE.
3a (with a trade up). Ali Marpet, OL
3 (comp). Max Valles or (wishful thinking) Danielle Hunter, EDGE. Maybe Obum Gwacham.
4 (TB). Ellis McCarthy, DT/DE.
4. Best available OL. Maybe Jamil Douglas or Bobby Hart.
6 (TB). DeAndre Smelter, WR.

What a dream that would be.

Odighizuwa joins the 11" hand club. 6'3" 267#, 33 3/4" arms.

Saw a report that teams were expecting it and are fine.

He must have been hanging off something because his arms were 33 1/8 at the senior bowl. Longer arms = drool. remember, he's taller than Hardison (just) which really surprised me at the time.

 

[manxman2601]

Just a reminder for those unaware:

Lynden Trail: 6'7", 269lbs, 34 7/8" arms

Close to perfect size and might even project as a TE. Will be interested to see how he performs this week.

Goldman isn't doing drills. So disappointed.

Edit:

FSU DT Eddie Goldman is giving the media a history lesson in great NFL DL's and their traits. Very impressive.

BB will like that.

 

[manxman2601]

Ali Marpet's official time was 4.98. Only guy to run sub 5.00. Bitonio was 4.97.

Probably, but they can't all rise. Valles is way underrated IMO, but it would take a huge jump for him to become over-valued.

 

[manxman2601]

Nick O'Leary 4.93 with a 1.78 split. In other words he's barely quicker than Ali Marpet at 50lbs lighter.

Sifrin dissappointing

Sifrin dissappointing

Very.

4.9 for Maxx Williams? Wow.

 

[manxman2601]

4.81 for Maxx Williams. That will cost him.
