Scouting Combine thread

[beware_d-ware]

NFL.com has Cole Kmet's 40 time as a 4.65 unofficial. I'm guessing the 4.70 time was his first run.

Not a big difference either way, and I eyeball-tested him as a high-4.6 kind of guy when I watched his tape so that's not a huge surprise either. But he did show up to the combine a lot heavier than his program weight, and it's good to know that he still kept all of that speed.

EDIT vv

The good side is that he looks pretty athletic. As far as his speed, I'm going in the "long strider" camp and thinking he'll check in maybe around the high 4.6s. With a 6'5" 250 frame, that's fast enough to create problems for LBs IMO.

Doing the same thing at 6'6" 262 is pretty damn good.

Albert Okweugbunam 4.49
Jated Pinkney. 5.00
Adam trautman. 4.79

Wow, did not see Okweugbunam running that time. He looks relatively slow on tape.

4.98 in a league where even mediocre LBs run a 4.7. They are going to stick to him like glue in man to man.

I remove him immediately. I’m not touching that before day three

Holy CRAP at Okweugbunam! I knew he had build-up speed, but I would have lost every dime I have betting against him being a 4.4 guy.

Pretty impressive. Unfortunately he’s the definition of a linear athlete and can’t block.

I’d honestly be surprised if he goes before the 3rd.

Absolutely love him as a backup, red zone option. Dude has an awesome catch radius, good hands and solid ball skills.

Claypool ran a 4.45 at 238 pounds. Geezus.

He actually measured 6'4.5".

Duvernay at 4.40 & Jefferson at 4.44; didn't see either coming, but ecstatic about the prospect of both.

No top WRs doing combine?..only 1 is Jefferson he ran 4 44

There's so much depth at wideout that you could find someone in Round 4 that could easily be your #2.

I doubt we consider anyone that high unless Cooper bolts and then it becomes a clear Day 1/2 need.

Not sure if Jeudy or Ruggs is running but they'll be in the second group if they are.

Claypool just ran 4.43 in his second try. At over 6'4" and 238 pounds.

Ya but Claypool said projects at TE ....66 for over 1k 13TDs

 

[Avery]

Claypool probably just ran himself into the second day of the draft. Someone will bit on him before the day is out.

Said hes gonna play TE ..according to analysts

That's what the pundits say but he'll play wherever his coaches put him. The only reason they say that is his size. He'd be a heck of a matchup nightmare in the slot or wide. They may call him a TE but there's no way they use a LB to cover him. Think Evan Engram.

4.45, 4.43 were his two times, had a 40.5 inch vertical and pressed 19 times.

He made himself some money today.
