I've read grumblings that the difference between Stanley and Tunsil is negligible. If the distance was as slim as some projected, I wonder if some might see Stanley as a better prospect if he performs/measures better at the combine. You could legitimately see two OT's go before two QBs in this draft.

What's it going to be then, eh?

In physical measurements, yes. They are pretty close.
Watching them play? Tunsil looks like Tyron Smith's twin brother. Stanley? Not so much. Still pretty good, but not nearly as athletic or mechanically smooth.

That's a good weight for Collins. Heavier than I expected. Elliot is a friggin' mack truck with nitrous and F1 suspension. Damn, I'd love to get that kid.
All eyes on Myle Jack for weigh-in though...

Should just make this the combine chatter thread.

Height is not that important to me. In fact, short RBs can have some advantages.
Irrelevant to me. He's not running. Don't care what he weighs right now. I won't pay attention until his Pro Day.
Besides, he will probably weigh more now to impress people, then shed the weight so he can run faster.

Seconded, I should have thought of that.

Agreed, that's why I commented on his weight.
The Jack comment was more of a jab at certain posters

I like Elliott a lot. It's a shame we won't be drafting him. I liked you drafting him to the Colts. What a fit.

He would be a great fit in Dallas as well. The actual impact instant starter who could change the team.
But people only say they want the instant impact starter when it fits with what they think the team needs.

Haha that's a funny way to describe a guy. I like it.

Elliott would, in my opinion, be the most impactful rookie we could draft in regards to his rookie season. If the Cowboys determine that none of the top 3 QBs are worthy of the pick, I'd love an 8-10 pick trade down to net an extra 2nd and draft Elliott.

Small hands. Might explain his fumble issues this season. That is, however, heavier than I expected him to be. If he comes out and runs a blazing 40 at that weight, as many expect him to, he is going to shoot up boards.

He might move a little up past or up to players like Collins, Perkins, Drake and Howard. He still won't threaten the top two backs IMO.

I could honestly see him jumping into the late first or early second. He offers incredible flexibility, catching like a wide receiver while showing good vision and burst as a runningback. I can see a team falling in love with him and over drafting. He's one of those kinds of prospects.
Oh god, did I just describe the Cowboys?!
