I’m surprised Metcalf slid

I mean if he doesn’t work out as a wide receiver he could be a 1 tech DT

Versatility
well reality maybe a route running TE only type..utilize size and speed inside if he doesnt do a lot fo the route tree you make him a TE who lines up in the 12 offense and runs routes on the inside all day mismatched on LBs, Safetys?

I dont see him there, shocked NE didnt take him, why?
Bryan Broaddus went over players with medical flags yesterday who made Combine re-checks at the end of the Draft Show (56:48).

D.K. Metcalf - fused neck, it's a lower fusion, which is better, he should be ok
Hollywood Brown - foot doing good
Jalen Hurd - meniscus scope, no concern there, just needs more time
Montez Sweat - heart condition called HOCM
Christian Miller - hip problem, more hip than hamstring
Jahlani Tavai - grade 3 shoulder sprain, they fixed it, no concern there
Taylor Rapp - hip flexor condition, we've talked about that (possible cause of slow 40 time)
Deionte Thompson - little concern about maybe a knee problem, more knee than wrist
Rashan Gary - labrum that needs to be fixed, will likely wear out
Dexter Lawrence - had a Jones fracture in his foot, has ankle issues, had drop foot, he's OK, pinched nerve when fixing ankle as a sophomore
Emmanuel Hall - played all season with groin injury, have to manage him, teams not worried about 'track' mentality, Brugler spoke with people at Mizzou who say he definitely is
Jachai Polite - shoulder concerns there as well, might be potential problem, Brugler: 'just add it to the list with him'
