That's weird. Wiki says that their figures are from the 2012 combine but the combine site doesn't list Will Compton in 2012 or 2013. NFLDraftScout also doesn't list a 3-cone drill for Compton.

 

I have serious questions.

 

Especially as I went through this thread and found this:

 

 

 

He doesn't list a link either. I'd have to have some more linkage, from whoever, on this before believing anything.

 

EDIT: Just checked the official NFL Combine site. They list three Comptons in their history, Tom, Mike and Gary.

Anyone can put anything on wiki. I use it sometimes but if there's a question I certainly don't trust them unreservedly.

 

Look it up yourself. Its on a nebraska cornhuskers media. He did not attend combine , numbers are from pro day

Any twitter heads have any updates here? Is it a foregone conclusion he signs?

I saw that Steve Keith guy say the visit is scheduled for Monday. I know we are all focus on other things today ?

Well that's simply untrue.

 

You have guys like Edmunds, Smith, Evans, and LVE that are round 1 talents. Then you've got D Leonard, M Jefferson, and J Baker that are day 2 prospects who could potentially start as rookies. Then there's the day 3 sub package guys, like Jewell, who is very likely a guy that could carve out a role and play for a long time. There's more than a handful of those

 

And you're still missing the point 

 

You don't need an elite LB group. You need 3-4 guys that can get it done in a platoon fashion 

Solid points.I think this staff and management is looking for depth and rotation,especially on the defensive side...fresh bodies on the field and as we all know.injuries happen.

Was Compton in Buffalo today or is his visit tomorrow?

Haven't seen any details as of yet.  Wouldn't be surprised if it's on Monday.

I was gonna ask, this usually means a signing is imminent? Like they don't take physicals before agreeing to terms no?

if he's taking the physical it means that the agent feels comfortable that the deal is in place or at least the correct ballpark and the team is ready to move forward pending a physical

it's like doing an inspection on a house.  you want the house, you made an acceptable offer, let's have a professional check it out and make sure it's in good shape before you make a financial commitment

For a guy coming off multiple injuries, it could mean a couple things.  They may want to see his health before they even deal with negotiating.

yea but if you are his agent you are saying i'm not subjecting my client to poking and prodding unless we know you are ready to offer what we want if he checks out

Happens all the time.  The Bills bring about 5 players in a week during the season for physicals and workouts.  Most are not signed.

I really want this guy. Totality fits the team.
