Nitro Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) It is fun to live in Indy during the combine. Seeing all the coaches, GMs, talking heads and the rookies down town is cool. Just don't plan on eating at a good downtown restaurant this week. Booked solid. Local economy, per the Indy Star, will get a 6.5 million boost for the week of the combine. Downtown stadium/convention complex is a boon here. Hope the local officials in Buffalo will look at this s a template for the new stadium. I look forward to the parade of talent and the evaluation process, Edited February 21, 2014 by Nitro

Nanker Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 If someone is injured prior to the combine and drops out do they replace the player or just go with less? Sigh, I know hope springs eternal - but you're probably better off just putting away those dreams of playing in the NFL.

Wayne Cubed Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Manziel 5' 11 3/4", 207 lbs, hand 9 7/8" (Russel Wilson was measured 5'11" 205) Bridgewater 6' 2 1/8" 214 lbs, 9 1/4" hand Bortles 6' 5", 232 lbs, 9 3/8" hand FWIW Polian expressed more concern with Bridgewater's "small" hand size than Manziel's height. There is that article, can't find it at the moment, that relates hand size to winning QB's. FWIW, Wilson's was 10 1/4" (damn).

Steelers GM Kevin Colbert: 2014 draft ‘deepest in 30 years’ but prospects ‘immature’ INDIANAPOLIS -- A record 102 underclassmen declared for the 2014 NFL draft, a development that Steelers GM Kevin Colbert says brings both pros and cons to the table. Colbert called this draft class the most talented he has seen in his 30 years on the job but added "it also might be the most immature. Edited February 21, 2014 by 26CornerBlitz

Daniel Jeremiah @MoveTheSticks 1h Martavis Bryant 6'3 1/2 211 What's the point of taking a Tight End when you can get WR's that size with better ball skills and speed?
swnybillsfan Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 What's the point of taking a Tight End when you can get WR's that size with better ball skills and speed? blocking, and adding another threat to go along with the big receivers.
YoloinOhio Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Short arms unless they measure differently than men's clothing which is from the back of the neck, over the shoulder & down the arm.Andre Williams had the longest arms of any RB at the combine at 33 1/2. James White from Wisc had the shortest at 29 1/4. 32 sounds pretty good by that scale, but I really don't know. I looked up Peterson's from his combine for reference and they aren't listed. But looks like Hyde dropped about 5 lbs from where he was during the season.
