Eric Winston
NFL comparison:
Jordan Gross, Panthers
ERIC WINSTON MEASURABLES Height: 6-6
Weight: 310 40-yard dash: 4.94 10-yard dash: 1.70 20-yard shuttle: 4.44 60-yard shuttle: Broad jump: 9-0 225-lb. bench: 22 3-cone drill: 7.47 Vertical jump: 33 Wonderlic: 20-yard dash: 2.78
Run blocking: Is tall with adequate size. Plays with balance and shows great body control. Shows rare athleticism as a converted tight end. Is physical and plays with a mean streak. Takes good angles and consistently hits moving targets. Lacks explosiveness and leg drive to create a new line of scrimmage. Grade: 7.3.
Pass blocking: Has room to add bulk to height. Gets set quickly with outstanding speed and agility. Rarely gets beat coming around the corner. Has long arms and strong hands to create separation. Needs to improve hand placement. Grade: 7.3.
Initial quickness: Is athletically gifted and moves well for his size. A natural knee bender, he possesses exceptional feet and lateral movement but doesn't display the explosiveness to drive back opponents. Grade: 7.0.
Strength: Winston possesses adequate upper-body strength to create leverage but needs to get stronger in the lower body. He also needs to work on his base to better anchor against bull rushes. Grade: 6.8.
Mobility: Winston maintains a nice combination of size and athleticism, but mobility is an issue because of a torn knee ligament suffered in '04. Range and leg drive also are questionable after showing signs of decline in play in '05. Grade: 6.7.
Bottom line: Winston converted from tight end to offensive tackle in '03 and was developing into a dominant player at the position until a season-ending knee injury. He must continue to develop physically to anchor during passes and keep his legs driving during runs. He also must polish his protection technique and impress in postseason workouts to prove he is healthy. If he does, he is a projected second-rounder with first-round potential.
NEWS
Winston could have the best chance of any Miami player of coming off the board in the first round. He chose not to run in the Hurricanes' March 4 pro day workout but took part in position drills and did 22 reps on the bench press.
After a strong showing at the Combine, the solid pro day workout helped Winston answer any questions scouts had about his ability to overcome a 2004 knee injury. Unofficially at Indy he ran 4.94 in the 40, did a 9-foot broad jump and a 29-inch vertical jump. His 40 time was the second-fastest among offensive linemen at the Combine and he was third in the 20-yard shuttle. Winston started every game last season in coming back from surgery, but was inconsistent at times. However, his work in the postseason has provided a spark and pushed him slightly up the board. -- War Room scouts

Andre Hall
ANDRE HALL MEASURABLES Height: 5-8
Weight: 206 40-yard dash: 4.42 10-yard dash: 1.50 20-yard shuttle: 4.20 60-yard shuttle: 11.42 Broad jump: 9-5 225-lb. bench: 18 3-cone drill: 7.38 Vertical jump: 33 Wonderlic: 20-yard dash: 2.57
Inside running: Runs hard but is undersized. Runs low with his head up and is willing to stick his face in the hole. Doesn't hesitate or dance in the backfield. Sees the crease and hits it hard; shows a burst through the hole. Lacks the size or bulk to be a power back; can't push the pile and is only effective in short-yardage and goal-line situations if he has a crease. Can slash through arm tackles.
Outside running: Shows outstanding body control, quick footwork and vision. Will find the cutback lanes, make defenders miss and get outside. Is elusive in the open field but lacks the elite speed to be a home-run threat.
Blocking: Willing blocker but often overwhelmed by bigger pass rushers. Lacks awareness against the blitz and must improve his blocking skills in pass protection.
Hands/routes: Is a fluid, natural receiver who is dangerous after the catch. Must improve route-running skills and ability to recognize coverages.
Durability: Lack of size is a concern but didn't miss any playing time in college because of an injury. Bottom line: Hall is a productive all-around back who can produce as a runner, receiver and in the return game. His size will prevent him from being a premier back. Versatility, athleticism and toughness as a change-of-pace back and return specialist will earn him a spot late on Day 1.

RealCowboyfan said:JIMMY WILLIAMS
HEIGHT:: 6-3
WEIGHT:: 216
SPEED:: 4.32(sportingnews) 4.36 (hookieshaven.com)
PLAYERS CARD:: http://virginiatech.rivals.com/cview...640&type=stats
STRENGTHS:: -Has great height, weight, speed and long arms. Is best suited to play in a bump-and-run system. Has excellent strength, and is not afraid to be physical and challenge for jump balls. Is particularly effective in the red zone. Is quick. Shows fluid hip movements to turn and run with receivers. Shows above-average burst to the ball. Shows good instincts and route-recognition skills. Is a playmaker with excellent hands. Is good in run support, and fills the hole hard. Is an excellent tackler. Has experience at safety and returning kicks.- sportingnews
-Has rare size/speed combination. A versatile prospect with experience at DC and FS. He is an ideal fit as a press cover corner in a man-to-man scheme. He made huge strides in coverage as a junior in 2004. He is tall, has long arms and is strong for the position. He does a good job of pressing WRs at the LOS and taking them out of their routes. He is surprisingly fluid for such a tall DC. Shows the quickness, hips and top-end speed to turn and run with any WR in the NFL if he opens up in time. He shows very good closing burst when the ball is in the air. He is physical and challenges the jump ball. His size gives him a big advantage in the red zone. He has developed excellent ball skills and is a playmaker with the ball in his hands. He fills hard vs. the run and is outstanding in run support. He is an aggressive player who will throw his body around and mix it up. He flashes some upside when turned loose on the blitz. Also has experience returning punts.- espn.com
WEAKNESS:: -Still has work to do in terms of his consistency in coverage. Will be over-aggressive at times and will get caught gambling. He needs to do a better job with his recognition skills. Will get caught peeking in the backfield at times and will leave himself vulnerable. He is much more effective in man-coverage than he is in zone. He seems less comfortable in space and needs to improve his ability to read the QB's eyes.-espn.com
-Can be overly aggressiveness and lose focus in zone coverage. Must improve field awareness. Must learn to better read quarterbacks' eyes and receivers' tendencies. Must become more disciplined and make wiser decisions. Gambles too much, and gets burned by double moves and pump fakes.- sportingnews
ARTICLE::
-washingtonpost-
Virginia Tech cornerback Jimmy Williams has always been more than confident in his athletic abilities. On his right forearm, a tattoo reads: "Destined 2." On his left: "Be Great."
But Williams's confidence got him into hot water last season with Hokies Coach Frank Beamer. Before the 2004 opener against defending national champion Southern California in the Black Coaches Association Classic at FedEx Field, Williams said Trojans wide receiver Mike Williams wouldn't be very productive if he played in the game.
The NCAA denied reinstating the receiver's eligibility before the game, but the damage was done in Beamer's mind. He banned his cornerback from talking to the media for the rest of the season.
So last month, when Virginia Tech's players reported to Lane Stadium for the annual team picture and media interviews, Williams was biting his tongue. Beamer's message had apparently gotten through loud and clear.
"I like it that way," Beamer said. "I like respecting the game and the opponent and playing hard."
Beamer has never questioned Williams's work ethic or talent. Last season, the senior from Hampton, Va., was an all-ACC selection and a semifinalist for the Jim Thorpe Award, which is given to college football's best defensive back. Williams led the ACC with five interceptions and was third on the team with 60 tackles in his first season at cornerback after starting at free safety during the 2003 season.
Williams, 6 feet 3 and 216 pounds, played so well last year that many Virginia Tech fans didn't expect him to be back in Blacksburg this season. Williams was ranked among the top non-seniors available for the NFL draft, but he surprised a lot of friends and teammates when he decided to return to Tech. Losing Williams would have been a tremendous blow to the Hokies, who had already graduated starting cornerback Eric Green and safeties James Griffin and Vincent Fuller from a secondary that helped them rank No. 4 in Division I-A in pass defense last season.
"Hey, I wanted to shock the world," Williams said. "A lot of people thought I was going to leave, but I wanted to do something different. A lot of guys before me who had the opportunity to leave did leave. I wanted to be different. I wanted to leave my mark on this program and its history."
Barring an injury this season, Williams's decision could pay off in a big way in April's NFL draft. ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. ranks Williams the No. 1 cornerback and No. 10 senior available for the draft. Williams's athleticism and big-play abilities are why he is being compared to former Tech standout DeAngelo Hall, a first-round draft choice of the Atlanta Falcons in the 2004 NFL draft.
Unlike Hall, Williams has the size to play free safety in the NFL, but he also is fast enough to cover wide receivers in the open field as a cornerback.
"I wanted to come back and be the number one player in college football," Williams said. "Not just the number one defensive back."
Virginia Tech defensive coordinator Bud Foster will be counting on Williams to anchor the Hokies' rebuilt secondary. With sophomore Roland Minor lining up at the other cornerback spot and sophomore D.J. Parker likely starting at free safety, Williams doesn't figure to get many passes thrown to his side of the field this season. Keeping his young teammates in the right place will be just as important for Williams, Beamer said.
"Jimmy's doing great right now as far as being a team player here, respecting his teammates and being a great senior leader," Beamer said. "He's covering people like a blanket and has really played well and has confidence."
And, most importantly in Beamer's eyes, Williams is doing it quietly. After making his candid remarks about Mike Williams before last season's opener, the cornerback was burned for one of the biggest plays in the Trojans' 24-13 victory. With Tech leading 10-7 late in the third quarter, running back Reggie Bush lined up at receiver and ran right past Williams for a 53-yard touchdown.
"Damn, I don't want another Reggie Bush play," Williams said. "I was just a kid. I didn't know what to say or how to say it. But I still don't think what I said was all that bad."
Williams said Beamer's censorship did have its benefits, though.
"I'd like to thank Coach Beamer because I didn't have to worry about having a bad game and then having to come and talk to you guys," Williams told reporters.
size speed ratio remind me of Darren Woodson.

Kamerion Wimbley
KAMERION WIMBLEY MEASURABLES Height: 6-3
Weight: 248 40-yard dash: 4.61 10-yard dash: 1.58 20-yard shuttle: 4.42 60-yard shuttle: 11.74 Broad jump: 10-9 225-lb. bench: 24 3-cone drill: 6.97 Vertical jump: 38
Wonderlic: 20-yard dash: 2.65
Strengths: Shows an explosive first step and outstanding speed off the edge. Anticipates snap counts better than most prospects. Has the initial burst to get past offensive tackles without contact. Combines good quickness and agility with fluid hips and smooth change-of-direction skills. Beats offensive tackles with speed and quickness, and shows a good closing burst to the quarterback. Works best as a pursuing run defender. Breaks down and changes direction without losing speed in transition. Takes good angles, and tackles well in open field. Shows potential to drop back and cover in zone-blitz situations. Shows good instincts, and excels at diagnosing misdirection plays. Gets upfield quickly when reading pass.
Weaknesses: Is too lean, and must add bulk. Gets run over by offensive tackles at the point of attack. Must learn to take on and shed blockers and play with good leverage. Must develop more pass-rush moves; can't afford to rely so much on speed.
Bottom line: Wimbley shined at the Senior Bowl, holding his own against the run and impressing scouts as an edge pass rusher. He is a 'tweener and probably projects better as a 3-4 outside linebacker, but he can make an early impact as a situational pass rusher and special teams performer.

JASON ALLEN MEASURABLES Height: 6-0Weight: 213 40-yard dash: 4.39 10-yard dash: 1.46 20-yard shuttle: 3.81 60-yard shuttle: 11.17 Broad jump: 10-11 225-lb. bench: 17 3-cone drill: 6.75 Vertical jump: 39Wonderlic: 20-yard dash: 2.52
Strengths: Is a playmaker who uses his long arms, leaping ability and strength to win jump balls and take away passes. Plays well against the run and in coverage. Has decent speed, good burst and great ball skills. Is tall and smooth and can turn and run with receivers. Fills the hole hard against the run, tackles well in the open field and uses his size to make big hits. Excels at redirecting receivers at the line of scrimmage. Is comfortable playing in the tackle box. Can shed blockers.
Weaknesses: A dislocated hip ended his senior season, raising questions about his durability. Is a bit of a ’tweener; lacks elite speed to play cornerback. Must improve at open-field tackling and playing in space to become an elite safety. Lacks great pre-snap recognition. Relies too much on his athletic ability in coverage. Bottom line: Allen has a lot of potential and projects highly as both a cornerback and safety. However, his hip injury prevented him from playing in all-star games. His ability is unquestioned, and he was a first-round prospect before the injury. He now must prove he is the player he was in 2004. He is worth the risk late in the third round.

Sinorice's productivity in college was more about the crappy offense that was being run than his ability. He was easily the most productive receiver at UM last year. If he played with Dorsey, Portis, Andre Johnson and Reggie Wayne, he would have been just as productive as his brother. Funny, when he received his scholie to da U (over Santonio Holmes BTW) every Cane fan thought he was just getting it because of his brother, now everyone thinks he's getting hyped for the NFL because of his brother again.
Another impact on his productivity in college was he had injury problems his first few years. All you need to do is look at the play that tied up the FSU game in 2004 at the end of regulation to see what kind of player he can be if given the opportunity. Plus he catches everything he gets his hands on.

DARNELL BING
NFL comparison:
Roy Williams, Cowboys
DARNELL BING MEASURABLES Height: 6-2 Weight: 227 40-yard dash: 4.52 10-yard dash: 20-yard shuttle: 4.07 60-yard shuttle: 11.53 Broad jump: 10-0 225-lb. bench: 17 3-cone drill: 7.25 Vertical jump: 34 Wonderlic: 20-yard dash:
Strengths: Is a physical specimen and a powerful defender who runs well for his size. Is an explosive defender; hits like a linebacker. Excels at being the eighth defender in the box. Can blitz off the corner. Uses his hands well in the running game; can disengage blocks and get to the ball carrier. Has great ball skills for a bigger safety. Covers ground in the passing game; gets a good jump on routes and can separate receivers from the ball. Has a knack for making big plays. Plays with a mean streak.
Weaknesses: Plays out of control at times; fills hard in the running game but doesn't always wrap up when tackling. Has limited coverage skills; has stiff hips and is slow to open up and run with speedy receivers. Struggles in man-to-man coverage. Needs to improve pass-recognition skills; gets caught out of position in play-action. Had academic problems. Spent most of his career battling shoulder and leg injuries.
Bottom line: Bing, an intimidating strong safety prospect, can make plays from sideline to sideline. He could contribute right away as a run-supporting safety and as a deep defender in zone coverage. His injuries and academic struggles are concerns, but his potential is tremendous. Bing should be one of the top safeties selected; he's likely to go early in the second round, though he could sneak into the first round.
News
Bing, a first-team All-American, informed Southern Cal officials Jan. 15 of his plan to enter the '06 draft. Bing had 50 tackles and four interceptions this season. With Bing leaving early and senior Scott Ware out of eligibility, USC will have to replace both its starting safeties next season.

John McCargo
DEFENSIVE TACKLE
JOHN MCCARGO MEASURABLES Height: 6-1
Weight: 302 40-yard dash: 5.16 10-yard dash: 1.71 20-yard shuttle: 4.48 60-yard shuttle: Broad jump: 9-2 225-lb. bench: 25 3-cone drill: 7.79 Vertical jump: 30
Wonderlic: 20-yard dash: 2.90
-Strengths: He's a one-gap penetrating type of defensive tackle prospect. He will fit best as a three-technique in the NFL. He shows very good initial burst out of his stance. Fires out low and with good initial power. He shows the consistent ability to penetrate and does a decent job of finding the ball once he gets through the line of scrimmage. He has good speed and overall mobility for his position. Can change directions and will pursue from behind. He is disruptive versus the run and pass. Has upside as a pass rusher if he can improve his ability to use his hands and get off of blocks. He is an intelligent and hard-working player. Was a good student in college and shows a lot of maturity for his age.
Weaknesses: He is undersized. He lacks ideal height and possesses marginal bulk. He plays with a narrow base and does not show the ability to anchor versus the run. He will get pushed around by bigger linemen that lock onto his body and he struggles to hold his ground when teams run at him. He has good penetrating skills versus the run but needs to improve his array of pass rush moves in order to contribute in that facet in the NFL. He gets a lot of pressure on quarterbacks because of his ability to penetrate quickly, but he does not show ideal closing burst to finish. Durability is also a concern after missing final five regular-season games due to stress fracture to left foot suffered vs. Wake Forest. The injury required surgery and several weeks of rehabilitation.
Overall: McCargo redshirted in 2002 before taking over as a fulltime starter in 2003, when he started all 13 games at DT and finished with 52 total tackles, 14 tackles for loss, 16 QB pressures and three sacks. He was an Academic All-ACC in 2004, when he started 10 of the 11 games he played and finished with 47 tackles, five TFL and 12 QB pressures. McCargo started all six games that he played in as a junior in 2005 but missed five others due to a stress fracture injury to his left foot that required surgery. Despite missing nearly half of the season, he still finished with 35 tackles, 10 TFL, seven QB pressures and one sack in 2005. McCargo was a surprise addition to the early-entry crop in this year's draft. He was completely overshadowed playing on an N.C. State defensive line that included the likes of Mario Williams and Manny Lawson. While McCargo is nowhere near the same caliber player, he was an impact starter in his own right when healthy. McCargo lacks ideal size and will never be able to consistently hold his ground versus the run. However, he has some upside for teams employing a one-gap, up-the-field type of defensive line scheme. McCargo returned to play in the season-finale as a junior, which helped to ease concerns regarding his foot injury. In our opinion, McCargo warrants consideration late on Day 1 of the 2006 draft.-espn.com

DEFENSIVE TACKLE
JOHN MCCARGO MEASURABLES Height: 6-1
-Strengths: He's a one-gap penetrating type of defensive tackle prospect. He will fit best as a three-technique in the NFL. He shows very good initial burst out of his stance. Fires out low and with good initial power. He shows the consistent ability to penetrate and does a decent job of finding the ball once he gets through the line of scrimmage. He has good speed and overall mobility for his position. Can change directions and will pursue from behind. He is disruptive versus the run and pass. Has upside as a pass rusher if he can improve his ability to use his hands and get off of blocks. He is an intelligent and hard-working player. Was a good student in college and shows a lot of maturity for his age.
Weaknesses: He is undersized. He lacks ideal height and possesses marginal bulk. He plays with a narrow base and does not show the ability to anchor versus the run. He will get pushed around by bigger linemen that lock onto his body and he struggles to hold his ground when teams run at him. He has good penetrating skills versus the run but needs to improve his array of pass rush moves in order to contribute in that facet in the NFL. He gets a lot of pressure on quarterbacks because of his ability to penetrate quickly, but he does not show ideal closing burst to finish. Durability is also a concern after missing final five regular-season games due to stress fracture to left foot suffered vs. Wake Forest.

We would have to be freaking crazy to draft Moss at 18. The guy could very possibly still be on the board when we pick in the 2nd. Why take a chance on a guy like that at 18 when we can get a solid receiver in the 2nd such as Maurice Stovall from ND

Omar Jacobs
OMAR JACOBS MEASURABLES Height: 6-3
Weight: 232 40-yard dash: 4.84 10-yard dash: 1.64 20-yard shuttle: 4.29 60-yard shuttle: Broad jump: 9-0 225-lb. bench: 3-cone drill: 7.47 Vertical jump: 32
Wonderlic: 20-yard dash: 2.81
Strengths: Has the ideal height and build. Is an outstanding athlete, strong with big hands. Has a strong arm; makes all the necessary NFL throws. Throws a nice deep ball; shows good zip on out routes and can deliver the ball into tight spots. Shows great accuracy and touch on passes. Leads receivers well; hits them in stride and puts them in position for yards after the catch. Throws a catchable ball; works best with short-to-intermediate routes. Is quick and willing to tuck the ball and run. Has terrific speed as a good open-field runner. Shows fine footwork and gets set quickly. Has good pocket awareness; can sidestep traffic and escape pass rushers. Makes good decisions.
Weaknesses: Is raw; mechanics need work. Sometimes takes off and runs too early. Doesn't look as comfortable when throwing from the pocket as when outside it. Is less consistent with deep throws than with short passes. Needs to improve field vision and ability to read defenses and go through progressions.
Bottom line: Jacobs has the size, arm strength and mobility to become an NFL starting quarterback. He is a dual threat as an efficient passer and an athletic, playmaking runner. But he will need to develop his overall game but already has the right skills and intangibles to be a good second-round pick.
News
Jacobs announced Jan. 6 that he will skip his senior season and make himself eligible for the '06 draft. Jacobs threw for 2,591 yards and 26 touchdowns for the Falcons this season despite missing three games after separating his non-throwing shoulder.
He had a better sophomore season, leading the nation with 41 touchdown passes with just four interceptions. He was also named the Mid-American Conference's offensive player of the year.
"It was a decision that was certainly not easy and a decision that I hope the people who have supported me throughout my career can understand and respect," Jacobs said. Jacobs, who is from Delray Beach, Fla., has a strong and accurate arm, but scouts have said his sidearm throwing motion is a concern. -sportingnews.com
