The Combine's Here, Bitch!

Well, Evans won't last to us, and I hate the position switch. After the ultimate burn that was Johnny Baldwin, I've started to run cold on size in WRs, to be honest. I'm much more enthused about speed, hand size, and route running ability. Instead of drafting a stud WR and making them convert, just draft a stud TE who's already ready to make noise in Jace Amaro.

Jones is a great #3, decent enough #2. Of course, Avery's a solid #2, and I think Jenkins can become a #2 this season if he commits.

So if you can't sport a great #2, attacking opponents' secondary depth with two or three good #2 talents is a good strategy. Of course, if we also add a major WR in the draft (like, say, Cooks in the 1st or Ellington in the 3rd), we're doing even better.

I don't know why a collection of data isn't easier to find on the combine results for each player.

Dude Brandin Cooks has the same hand size as Evans. Wow. It's gotta be obvious to this front office that our free agent dollars should go towards the defense and we find pass catcher in this hell of a draft.

I'm thinking we should go WR in the first and TE in the third.

Walt Powell is going to be the steal in this years WR class.

Barr's first run was slower than I expected. Looks like a 4.5 guy at worst on tape, only clocked 4.66.

My thoughts exactly, and it looked much faster than a 4.66 live. Real headscratcher.

1.62 10 yard out of Chris Borland. That's pretty stout for an ILB with subpar size and frame.

[OldSchool]

Khairi Fortt had a 4.75 with a 1.59 10 yard split.

[Exoter175]

Hitchens just reeled off a 4.72 1.57, not bad.

Christian Jones with a 4.63. Just wish he were more instinctive and better with his hand usage.

not his fault, hard to be instinctive when you play every position in the front 7 aside from DT. lol

[Exoter175]

Pierre-Louis just grew wings, wow!

[OldSchool]

Here is Tyler Starr, only ran a 4.93. I thought he would he slow, but not that slow. Ouch.
