    I agree you can't count on Trice or Rush!

    A 350 pound object is hard to move! If they can keep him motivated/dedicated to play?
    I think his size alone will get him into second round. Stats say other wise.

    What are the odds he steps on a scale at the Combine?

    It sounded like he refused to get on a scale at the Senior Bowl.

    i've seen him listed at 362. still running a 5.05 40. he had 2 sacks last year to go with 45 tackles. those are pretty good numbers for a big man like that. :cool:

    Does anyone know where Braden Fiske is rated? I have seen him
    In 3rd round, but find this way to low for this player.

    At 6'3 295lbs maybe they could take him with one of their fourth round picks.

    Oh I don't think he will be there at 120. I believe his measurables are
    6' 5" Cam Heyward clone.

    His draft profile says 6'3 , at almost 300lbs he could probably play in a 3/4 defense.

    I thought he was 6' 5" and he can definitely play in a 3-4 defense.

    A lot of players who are 6’5” suddenly shrink a couple of inches when they’re officially measured and weighed at the combine.

    Fiske sure played a heck of a game in the Senior Bowl, he was the best defensive player in the game.

    Combine says 6'4" 292 just made himself more money with his 40 time!

    That was actually scary seeing someone that big running that fast. Not too many guys around 300 lbs can run a 4.76. Fiske looked like an angry grizzly bear charging its prey.

    Sweat weighed in at 366 today. He ran a 5.22 which isn't that bad for a guy that incredibly huge. They were saying today that in college he just took the opposing center and walks him back into the backfield play after play.

    Heyward 6'5/ 295.
    Larry O: 6'3 /304.
    Benton: 6'4 308

    This is the size I believe they are looking for although Sweat is 6'4. But 366 lbs. Would be a hell of a run stopper but the D Line has to have the ability to pass rush as well in this defense. Only had 5 sacks with the Longhorns. Would be more of a true nose.

    FYI, Murphy knocked it out of the park. No way he makes it to #20, maybe now a top 10 now.

    Heyward hasn't been 288lbs since college :lolol:, with Sweat not showing up in better shape I wouldn't take him in the second round.

    Fiske made him some money at the combine, he might go early in the second round running a 4.78 forty.
