Kind of flying under the radar is #LSU DT Michael Brockers' unimpressive Combine. CBS' @RobRang deemed it "poor." Link: http://bit.ly/xTNfJ8


CBS Sports draft analyst Rob Rang expects NFL teams to "pause" on LSU DT Michael Brockers after what Rang termed a "poor" Combine.Brockers didn't blow the lid off in Indy as many expected or suspected. He ran a 5.36 forty, third worst among defensive linemen and better than only likely undrafted free agents Dominique Hamilton (Mizzou) and Christian Tupou (USC). Worse, Brockers finished low at his position in the vertical (26.5"), broad jump (8-foot-9), and short shuttle (4.81). On paper, at least, Brockers doesn't appear to possesses the long-term athletic upside many imagined. Feb 27 - 8:55 PM

Yeah, I'd have to agree, he certainly didn't build on the momentum he had going into combine.

Everyone is these days. Last year, Robert Quinn was going to run a 4.3' jump 50 inches and do 40 reps. He was a guaranteed freak... Except he wasn't.

I guess his lack of production has been confirmed by his lack of ability
