Neither one of those guys need to be concerned with their 40s. Short area quicks and explosion, along with the ability to anchore are what both those guys will make their millions on.

I agree, I would look at quickness off the snap and a good short burst from big guys like these 2

It depends, they tend to run faster when they hear the dinner bell. Maybe they should time these guys with the bell instead of a whistle.

It would be like the pigs in the oreo races. :laugh2:

You mean those Washington brothers in Minny don't run 4.4s??? lol.

I'd love Terrence Cody here as the run stuffing NT.

I would not jump off a bridge if we did get him but he is not high on my list. I think he will continue to have issues with his weight and entering camp out of shape. I'm not concerned about his speed but I am concerned about his endurance.

I don't mind fat run stuffers:)

The behemoth Washingtons (Pat/Ted) both are fat as can be and yet amazingly just stuff the run year after year after year.

We have Ratliff for 2 downs a series:)

I would not want to use a 1st on that type of player. He had big issues in college with his weight and just feel it will become an even bigger issue in the pros. I would hope Dallas will look to someone else with their 1st.

I hear ya there.

I'd rather get one of the OL or Earl Thomas if the GMs are stupid enough to let him fall that far, BUT if the other targets are off the board I'd bounce on Cody. He WILL be able to do a job in the NFL.

Ask UT how hard it is to do anything with that fat boy clogging up the middle.

I saw the game as well as many Alabama games. I just have some issues and doubts about Cody. I think you can get by in college where you will not get by in the pros.

Why? UT couldn't do anything up the middle against anybody.

OT

I always thought players from Texas and USC had no heart and were soft for the most part. :) Course there are always exceptions, LD for one but I swear I can't think of two other schools who produce more high profile busts than those two.

Didn't the Tuna say something about disliking country club run colleges? I could have sworn he mentioned some by name. Amirite?

Pretty sure you meant Williams, Pat and Kevin Williams.

I don't want Cody, unless he is there in the 3rd.
