The Combine's Here, Bitch!
http://www.arrowheadpride.com/2014/2...-list-workouts
2014 NFL Combine schedule: TV channel, online streaming, invite list, workouts and more By Matt Conner on Feb 20 2014, 10:12a he road to the NFL Draft is longer in 2014 than any other offseason given the league's decision to push it back a few weeks to May 8-10. For the next three months, draftniks will circle around prospects like hawks, analyzing their every move and weighing the pros and cons of each player. The process starts en masse this week with the start of the 2014 NFL Combine in Indianapolis. If you love the Draft, then this is a big week for you. For those who are new to the NFL Combine, it's a seven-day event broken up into four-day shifts for each position group (quarterbacks to punters). Each group comes to Indy for four days to meet with representatives from each NFL team for medical assessments, interviews and a number of workouts. It's termed the Underwear Olympics for that reason, as teams fall in and out of love with prospects based on 40-yard dash times and vertical leaps. The quick guide to the Combine
The Combine workout schedule Here are the days the actual workouts for each position group: Saturday, Feb. 22: Tight Ends, Offensive Linemen, Special Teams Sunday, Feb.23: Quarterbacks, Running Backs, Wide Receivers Monday, Feb. 24: Defensive Line, Linebackers Tuesday, Feb. 25: Defensive Backs There are four groups of players arriving as shown above. Each group has four days of events. Day 1: Travel to Indianapolis* ~ Registration ~ Hospital Pre-Exam & X-rays ~ Orientation ~ Interviews Day 2: Measurements ~ Medical Examinations ~ Media ~ Interviews Day 3: NFLPA Meeting ~ Psychological Testing ~ PK/ST Workout ~ Bench Press ~ Interviews Day 4: On-Field Workout (timing, stations, skill drills) ~ Departure from Indianapolis With the first arrivals coming on Wednesday, that puts the first day of workouts on Saturday. The players invited Every top college football player will likely be in attendance in Indianapolis, even if some of the top athletes won't participate in the workouts. The NFL invited over 300 players to attend. Teddy Bridgewater to Jadeveon Clowney, your favorite college players will likely be there. Who is eligible to be invited to the Combine? Basically, seniors without college eligibility left and those who have declared early. And how are players selected to the Combine? Read this: Quote:
The workouts The most important one is not a workout -- it's the interview. Teams will have the opportunity to interview players where they'll get about 15 minutes with them. With so little time, the questions have to be precise and all have a purpose. The second most important item there is getting the medical check-up -- essentially confirming that the player is healthy or checking out previous injuries. Team doctors will want this information so the GMs and coaches can make an informed decision. Some of the other workouts, via Big Blue View: Quote:
NFL Network will televise some of it. NFL.com will stream the action. KCChiefs.com will have full video of Andy Reid and John Dorsey's press conferences but will not stream them live. |

Damn, I was looking forward to watching how he looks after dropping some weight. I think Sam is in the 4.8 area as well.

There honestly should be a stipulation that anybody who decides to come to the Combine has to do every single drill.
I don't even care about them opting out. But hearing the commentators complain about it for the 1,000,000th time is getting on my nerves. |

As I said yesterday, Aaron Donald's really going to do everything except be 6'3" 300 lbs. Arguably a top 15 talent in a strong class. |

I think we still have the 2nd half of the DLs left.
I'm going to probably tap out on the LBs. Not interested. |

We do, and its boring me to tears. The two units I wanted to pay the most attention to this year, WR's and ILB's, and I feel like I'm going to go ninite before my ILB's come out!

Kareem Martin has potential at either DE or OLB in a 3-4. I'd put him at OLB...
Has a bit of a slow 40 though. May be more of a 4-3 DE. |

That surprises me. I would think an every down ILB as well as depth behind Hali and Houston would be priorities after last season. Do you think LB will be a priority?

Mauro is a late round 3-4 DE guy.
Pretty damn slow, though, for the position. 5.1. |
