Jamie Muellers Ghost Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Some good info here: https://www.upi.com/https:/www.upi.com/Sports_News/NFL/2018/02/19/Bold-predictions-2018-NFL-Scouting-Combine-studs-and-duds/5041519056827/
thebandit27 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 I've got one for you: Taven Bryan of Florida will be talked about as a potential top-15 pick after his workouts. Scouts will see a guy whose frame can handle the weight of an interior player and an athlete with the athletic traits required to wreak havoc on the EDGE. 2
VirginiaMike Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 My prediction is that someone who does not deserve it will be pushed up the draft board because that could run faster and jump higher that folks thought while wearing shorts. If they let players play in shorts that these pieces of information would be interesting. We'll also see that Mayfield is shorter than his program height and that will scare some folks when it should not. 4

I think him and Tim Settle will leave the scouts drooling from workouts.

He gets into his late 50's, he might drop under 6' but probably will have retired by then. 1 1
K D Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 i hate when guys get drafted because of their combine workout. yet when they put the pads on they stink. combine should just be another tool used to evaluate in addition to tape, interviews, meetings, measurements, etc 1

In no way should any player dramtically move up or down a draft oard based on the ocmbine. As you said a tool in addition to 1
Kirby Jackson Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 I’ll say Vea moves into the top 10. 2

whatdrought Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Rich Eisen will twist an ankle. Josh Allen will show the arm everyone thinks he has and will get serious conversation as #1. (accuracy pending) There will be one person severely over-drafted because of the combine. I think maybe Donte Jackson of LSU.

He will confirm to teams that he is a "dancing bear" on the D-line. 15 minutes ago, whatdrought said: Rich Eisen will twist an ankle.

I think maybe Donte Jackson of LSU. I think you are spot on. And I think Allen's arm talent will cause him to be picked higher than he should.
BuffaloBillyG Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 It's finally revealed that Baker Mayfield is just 2 midgets in a trench coat. 3
Fadingpain Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Mason Rudolph will be measured with a 127.3" standing broad jump and this will cause teams to move him up their boards because how far a QB can jump from a standstill is often the difference between victory and defeat in the NFL.
LabattBlue Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Bold? The combine will start on 2/27 The combine will end on 3/5

Except for 40 times, I think most everything else is overrated.
reddogblitz Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Some QB that we've hardly even heard of will look great in shorts in Indy and will immediately start climbing up the draft charts into the top 10.
