Question Where will Rachard Mendenhall go in the draft?

[FONT=Arial]Where will Rashard Mendenhall go in the draft? [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]40 Yard Dash 4.45[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]20 Yard Shuttle 4.18[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]Bench Press 26[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]Vertical jump 33.5[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]I did not see him play this year. He seems to have a thicker lower body than RDMC. From anyone who has watched him, I would like your thoughts.[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]Thanks[/FONT]

He's good and he'll go in the top 20 IMO.

So he is not just a "workout wonder" type guy? Who is better? RDMC or Mendenhall? Why?

I would never trade up for him...RB's drop in the draft...almost always.

All 3 of the top RB's won't be gone before #22, imo.

However, I still think we'll be looking at CB's and WR's.

I think he should go to the Bears, but maybe they are gun shy on rb's after firing blanks on Cedric Benson. Ultimately though I think it will be the Texans at #18 and Houston will be a better team for it.

I think Mendenhall is the better, all round, back prospect. DMac is probably the better "wow" factor RB, but I think Mendenhall is the better back.

I like his shuttle time, means he has good agility, I was leery of him because Drew Boylhart said that he was a straight-line guy

now I'm starting to think about him in the 1st, this class is loaded w/ RBs

Looks like he will go off the board at #22 to the Dallas Cowboys.

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

Hey BDC, Hope all is well. I really like this guy. By the way, not to go off on a tangent, but why the hate for Talib. I watched him almost every game and the kid seems to be a player. I know he gave up a couple of highlight catches, but everyone does. he seems to play with good technique.

IF Mendenhall is there at 22 Jerry Jones better make him the pick, he's a beast...
