Definitely one thing I forgot to note was Zack Martin's shortish arms. He'll have to translate to guard in the NFL, which probably means he'll fall to the top of the 2nd.

Hell of a guard for a team that needs one, though.

2014 NFL Combine: Weigh-In Recap - Tight Ends

By Charlie Campbell

North Carolina tight end Eric Ebron (6-4, 250) has added five pounds of muscle from his listed weight. Sources have told WalterFootball.com that Ebron is going to put on a show at the Combine. He is a gifted athlete, so that isn't hard to believe, and it wouldn't be surprising if Ebron is getting plenty of top-10 buzz after his workout in Indianapolis.

Texas Tech tight end Jace Amaro (6-5, 265) has good size, but was tied for the smallest hands of any tight end with Wisconsin's Jacob Pedersen. That shouldn't hurt Amaro significantly has he showed consistent hands with 106 receptions in 2013.

Austin Seferian-Jenkins has looked like a size, speed freak since his freshman season at Washington. He checked in at 6-foot-5, 262-pounds, which was just a tad smaller than his listed numbers (6-6, 266). It wouldn't be surprising if Seferian-Jenkins plays his NFL career around 270 since he dropped some weight for the Combine in an effort to help his 40 time.

Last summer, there were projections that Colt Lyerla would be the top tight end for the 2014 NFL Draft. Lyerla (6-4, 242) quit Oregon's football team in September and followed that up with a drug arrest. His size was in line with his listed measurements, and Lyerla is a good athlete who should stand out at the Combine. The big challenge for him will be in the interview rooms. Lylerla needs to impress there to get drafted.

Notre Dame tight end Troy Niklas (6-6, 270) hit his exact measurements, so no Catholic needs to confess to lying in confessional when it comes to measuring their football players. Niklas is a bit of sleeper behind the high-profile tight ends, but he could easily impress at the Combine.

USC tight end Xavier Grimble (6-4, 257) is another player who has the skill set to be a Combine star. Grimble has the speed and strength to impress in the field work. In a great class of tight ends, Grimble could be a steal.

Got a chance to watch Greg Robinson prep for his 40-yard dash last night. He was as impressive as you would expect. Carries weight well.

Now that's advertising.

adidas announces they're giving $100,000 to the player that runs the fastest 40 yard dash wearing their new adizero 5-star 40 cleat.

I haven't seen any weigh in figures at WR, yet. But some information is trickling out.

Brandon Cooks isn't quite 5'10". Both LSU receivers are under 6'0".

We'll look back in a few years at the critiques and criticisms of Teddy's frame and laugh at them.

I wonder how much water weight Manziel and Bridgewatwr were carrying this morning. Then again, you probably don't want to look bloated for the scouts.

Some big/heavy RBs this year... Four already in the 225-235 range.

Direckshun 02-21-2014 09:19 AM

Jesus.

Kelvin Benjamin is 6'5", 240 lbs.

He's a ****ing tight end.

Direckshun 02-21-2014 09:23 AM

Fumble totals over last two years: Manziel - 5 McCarron - 8 Bortles - 11 Carr - 7 Bridewater - 8

Direckshun 02-21-2014 09:24 AM

Mike Evans is super huge, too. 6'4 3/4 231

Manziel is such a boss. All that running too. Such great presence.

I'm sure the big hands don't hurt.
