    I like watching the combine a lot. Especially the .40 times.

    I watch it as much as I can . I really like to watch guys who are switching positions . My key guy today is Nick Marshall , need to see how strong and how fast and how fluid to see how to rank him as a CB.

    What were your thoughts on Andrus Peat? Definitely a unique body type. He didn't appear very agile. I was not impressed, when viewing side by side with Scherff, Flowers and some of the other top guys.

    Andrus Peat, OT, Stanford: After flying under the radar early in the pre-draft process, Peat is squarely in the conversation as one of the top offensive tackles in the 2015 class. The former Cardinal standout displayed a combination of athleticism and technical skill that should help him blossom into a franchise-caliber left tackle in the NFL. From his performance in athletic drills to his solid positional workout, Peat showcased exceptional balance, body control and agility. In addition, he surprised evaluators with his lateral quickness and movement skills, given his bulky lower body. With the lack of polished edge blockers in the 2015 class, Peat's performance could shoot him to the top of the charts.

    Considering all our needs, I don't see us going OT early, especially if they let Worilds walk. We will be in dire straights with holes in the D; we need CB, OLB, S help and could use a legit NT. That's a lot of holes.

    wow, I did not see that at all. I was trying to figure how to describe him, but Shaun OHara(sp?) one of the commentators said it best. paraphrasing - "he seemed laborious in his movements".

    Why do you have a no draft grade on Beasley?

    beasley and fowler went out of reach today (4,53 ,4.61)

    eli harold 4,53 , d. hunter 4,57 , odighizuwa 4,61 , one of these should be there if not all of them

    i can't believe i'm watching the combine .. i have nothing to do :rolleyes:

    I think he was to small and not strong enough for what we need at OLB. The AFC North is a beast with some huge nasty guys .IMO the next OLB we draft should be a bigger , stronger guy than we have been drafting.

    Just my opinion .

    I don't think the leading edge rushers moved due to 40 times. Beasley, Fowler, Ray and Dupree were out of range already. The big time performers from power conferences have plenty of film for teams to evaluate and see real game speed. They just have to not completely blow it on the combine field. The 40 brings in TV viewers, but it's the interviews and medical exams that make the big difference- at least that's how I see it.

    That's the OLB I wanted he looked like Super man on tape when he cranked his motor up. He takes to many plays off , but if you can motivate him he may be the next great at the position.

    I know Mac wont agree ,but I would consider moving 5 to 8 spots to get him.
