Is this not a John Elway pick all day?

 

Buffalo's Tyree Jackson is an athletic marvel, measuring 6-foot-7 and 249 pounds with big 10 1/4-inch hands, and he started the day with an impressive 4.59-second 40. But he struggled with his consistency throwing the ball, at one point earning a talking-to from NFL Network's Steve Smith for throwing too hard in the receiving drills. But he gets an A-plus for attitude, making all his throws with a smile on his face.

jackson definitley looks interesting....one knock ive heard on him is a slow release...or elongated motion...which most really tall qbs have a problem with....but hes definitley interesting and intriguing....wouldnt mind the pats blowing a 3rd round compensatory pick on this kid...although not sure how interested they are

also should be noted...that everyones darling from the weekend...dk metcalf...actually ran a slower 3 cone drill and 20 yard shuttle than tom brady did.....so this guy looks like an all world athlete until you ask him to change direction

 

Haha. It's been a pretty ehhh combine. Nobody really jumps out like Saquon did last year but not many do. A lot of mutts on the offensive side this year

Metcalf needs to stop lifting with bodybuilders.  His NFL team will surely put him in a workout program that emphasizes flexibility over bulk.  More yoga, less power lifting.  He can still be a dominant long ball specialist with no change of direction abilities.  It'll hurt his reception totals, though.

yeah thats cool...he can be a dominant long ball specialist...let him be david boston...or martavis bryant...or "insert name of long ball specialist".....the patriots win with a guy like edelman who can changeup on a dime and move laterally...ill take guys like that.....when youre being outdone by tom brady in drills that measure your ability to change direction that is a MAJOR red flag to me

 

close to a full second slower than julio in a 3 cone drill....i wish the guy well but somehow i feel like someone is getting a one trick pony with the chance that he can come down with some jump balls.....

Seems like to me this draft is on the weaker side.  At least for top end talent 

 

This draft is going to be a lot of fun for those in IDP dynasty.  So many ways you can go with this one.

Kind of an important thing if you want to play WR in the NFL. I read one story that said he may thrive in an office like Josh Gordon did, and mentioned a stat that 60% of Gordon's routes were of a certain kind not requiring many cuts (slant, post, etc.)

Kyler Murray the worst combine rating ever? He can't possibly be the worst 

"(WeMurray) better hope (Kliff) Kingsbury takes him No. 1 because this was not good. These were the worst comments I ever got on a high-rated quarterback and I've been doing this a long time. ... Leadership — not good. Study habits — not good. The board work — below not good. Not good at all in any of those areas, raising major concerns about what this guy is going to do."

You are probably right from a defensive standpoint.  I don't play in an IDP league but I'd probably like it because I do like defense.  I know the Alabama D-lineman and Bosa are pretty exciting but that's about all I know.

 

As a side note, interesting how Watt and Long and Bosa all seem to have these family genes that are working for them.  Must have some unique muscle fiber, explosiveness genes that run in the family

Well, I'm not passing on him at #1.

 

Metcalf is a physical beast.   A 4.33 (40) is SICK at his size.

 

He's not going to make the HOF running "hitch" routes.  He's a vertical threat who will dominate physically.

 

He ran his 3-cone drills and 20-yard shuttle after his 40 and long/vertical jumps and it skewed his results.   MANY other WR's didn't even do these drills that day because of this.  He also benched 27 reps.  A man among boys in this combine.

 

Of course.....JMHO

You very very rarely would take a WR at 1 overall. And he's not #1 worthy. What has he done that makes you think he's a #1 pick? He's a glorified John Ross.

 

Pretty sure scoop is referring to a rookie draft and not the NFL draft.  Think that maybe the confusion.
