Feb
Seeing clearly for the first time.
As the media has slowly filtered out of Indianapolis, workouts continue in full force. Skill positions spotlight the day. Players will continue to take the podium and interview with the last contingent of reporters. All the while TFY’s own Tony Pauline and Brent Sobleski are still present to give continual updates throughout the day. Check back regularly!
UPDATE 5:15 PM – Chris McGaha….looking ahead.
- Throughout today’s workout sessions, Arizona State product Chris McGaha uncharacteristically dropped several passes. Sources have told TFY, the wide receiver recently discovered through a series of Combine examinations he possesses 20-60 vision. He had never been previously apprised of the situation and is currently slated to have Lasix surgery this coming Tuesday to correct the small setback.

Joe McKnight/USC; displayed tremendous cutting ability, quick feet, and outstanding pass catching hands.
Shawnbrey McNeil/SMU; smooth runner, plays with good lean, and fluid change of direction.
