Sean Smith

[SLATEmosphere]

Ran a 4.53 official 40 at 6'3..215 pounds..perfect safety speed..too slow to be a first round corner IMO

This DB class looks terrible from what I saw. REALLY slow..

Anybody have the combine numbers for Smith? as far as vertical..broad jump..

Anyone think he can still fall to us? I sure do.

I think they may surprise you. Also, we all were a bit spoiled by last year's crop.

There was talk of whether Jenkins is a CB or FS before this draft..he just confirmed that he's a FS today. Mayock still thinks he could be a probowl safety his first year.

    Player            Position                  College                40 Time
Akins, Kevin             CB                  Boston College              4.83

How in the hell did this guy play CB!?!?! :laugh2:

lol, he's more of a SS/LB though, no idea why they call him a CB

 

[jterrell]

wow... the CB times are slow.

Teams may have to draft Sean Smith and play him at CB if there is a need. He's about as fast as it gets and at least he is big.

BTW, for all the bashing of our drafting good grief am I glad we pulled two guys out of last years draft.

Ryan Palmer ran a 4.6 and is 5'8"... how the heck did he get a combine invite?

 

[jterrell]

William Moore's 4.56 should really help him.

He is as fast as the CBs and is regarded as one of the biggest hitters in the class.

Ya no one was impressive at all. Malcolm looked terrible..so did Vontae. DJ Moore is 5'9 and ran a 4.51. Thats horrible. It's going to be real interesting now that Malcolm has dropped IMO. He's a FS in the NFL..not a CB. Same with Sean Smith.

That's straight line speed. His lateral movement is hard to watch...

I know you're in love with Sean Smith

but what do you think about Notre Dame S David Bruton? he killed it today, and was a pretty good dude at Notre Dame

He was hard to watch at the Senor Bowl all the way around. I saw surprised he broke 5.0 to be honest.

I loved him 2 years ago because all he did was +make plays but he plays very slow now.

Can't wait to get home and play the tivo.

I actually like Bruton, too. He's a good tackler.

Bruton's gotta be the big riser of the group based on numbers but I am not sure how he looks on tape to be honest.

He was a team captain and is said to have good range.

he's supposed to be a vocal leader

we need players like that, who can play

I thought Bruton was the only bright spot today. I just had never really heard of him before. I havn't seen any game film on him so it's hard to judge. I'm not sure if he could come in right away and start for us. I just know Sean Smith could.

Football's Future has Sean Smith at 4.47.

Nnamdi Asomugha ran a 4.48. Smith has been compared to him.

Smith will be drafted in the 1-2 range, imo.

Draft season als has him compared to Antonio Cromotarie (sp) CB from the Chargers. Those are two people who are very good to be compare to. Hopefully, he can live up to those comparisons and we get him. Although, if we do not, I would not mind Chung or Johnson from Alabama.

Ya I saw him run a 4.47 unofficial 40 at the combine..then I see he runs a 4.53 official 40 on a website? That's a pretty big difference.
