PromoTheRobot Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) UB Pro Day at RWS Fieldhouse Thomas had a terrific showing at the NFL Scouting Combine and could have rested on that. But he opted to participate Thursday and didn't disappoint. He lowered his 40-yard dash from the combine from 4.46 seconds to 4.43. He also improved in the vertical (from 38.5 inches to 40 inches) and broad jumps (10-6 to 10.8) recorded in Indianapolis. It says a lot about Thomas' competitiveness that he was willing to work out again. He positioned himself as a likely sixth- or seventh-round draft pick. Worth a 6 or 7?

boyst Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 OTW??? However, I wonder if a rookie is worth more then Bryan Scott - because I like Scott. We have a "safety" in Corto, but he's not really a safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1B4IDie Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I noticed the guy when looking at combine numbers. What's the tape say? We need to a DB later in the draft for depth so why not? Roosevelt must know him pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbosrrgood Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Bryan Scott is a better starter than Whitner, and I think we will be just fine with him. Having said that, yes of course we need depth and we will probably take a CB and Safety at some point in the draft. People keep clamoring to take multiple LB's in this draft. In fact if we can find ONE good LB early in the draft we should be OK at that position. We picked up Merriman, but we also Batten who didn't play last year, Moats as a pass rushing specialist, despite his detractors Kelsey played pretty well (especially towards the end of the season). We still need at least one more "starter" at LB, but our real concern has to be the DL. We need to get bigger and better up front. Then LB, then secondary depth. Throw in a OT some where along the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I'd rather have DeVonte Shannon to be honest...I think he's a more active player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
