Sorry DeSean, you must be at least THIS tall to ride this ride...

DeSean is elusive, but he's not nearly as explosive as Ginn. Without the foot injury, I think Ginn could have ran in the 4.2 range. I think DeSean runs in the low 4.4's.

He needs to hit the weight room... I believe he can still be a dynamic player taken in the 2nd round. He's a great KR and PR guy!

This is very disappointing. It really doesn't matter what he runs at 169 pounds at 5'9 he will drop like a rock. Who is his agent? he should have been bulking up since his last game. Maybe he runs a 4.2 and saves his 1st rd status but I don't see a guy that light making an impact on the next level. There kickers who weigh more than that.

Just an FYI, you can find out other player measurements here: http://www.nfl.com/combine/players

I'm sure they'll be updated as more and more info comes in.

Actually, these aren't measurements. They're player profiles made before the combine.....good stuff...

But they still have Long weighing around 330 instead of the 313 he weighed yesterday. And D Jackson is listed as 6-0 178 instead of the 5-9 169 he weighed in as.

But, it has some very good profiles.

Thanks!

Manningham is at 6' & 185, bigger than what I'd expected.

And here I was thinking that I was the only one who liked Manningham.

I think he'll still go in the first. If the Dolphins were willing to gamble on Ginn 9th overall because of his speed, there will be a team that takes this guy in the 1st. And it may be us.

Well, just because th Dolphins are dumb doesn't mean other teams are. :)
Randy Mueller doesn't have a job anymore.

Ginn started picking things up a bit as the season progressed. Certainly, you'd expect to see more from a 9th overall pick...

But I think he could still end up being a pretty good WR...

Like I said, I'm sure they'll be updated when the actual combine numbers come in. I think it was a matter of giving the general public a starting point as to who was going to attend the combine.

Actually, according to Bizwah, this may be pre-combine.
