NFL Combine Day 3: Quarterbacks / Wide Receivers / Running Backs

I wish they would quit giving so much air time to the guys who did not even workout.

Sure but if you HAVE Patrick, where is the downside? BTW if we cut Raymond we save over $3 million.

Right, but would you spend a 2nd rounder to replace Kalif? On a guy you’ll have to work into the scheme with ARSB and Jamo? It limits the variety of looks we can throw at defenses, which is why we don’t start Raymond in the first place.

We don’t need a perfect X receiver, but we do need a guy who won’t condense the field inordinately. You need that guy who can threaten the jump ball, back shoulder fades, etc… to hold a DB outside. Guys like ARSB and Noel can play outside, but they’re not running those kind of routes. Yes, we can make it work, but a legit X - or someone like a Puka who can run X routes - really fits a lot better.

I do too but that is a very short term solution, and before last season it has been 5 years since he finished a season? Something like that. We don’t HAVE to get a young guy behind him - we can always find another solution for a year in the Patrick vein if we have to - but if we DO go WR, that’s the most likely spot. Again, we only have 1 WR under contract past this season.

That isn’t the question unless you are saying that the combine just moved him from the 4th to the 2nd. Did it move the needle, probably. You know who aced the WR combine like no one before? Isaiah Weston, but did it move the needle…nope.

I thought Isiah Williams was the perfect eventual replacement Kalif and he was an UDFA. I am not looking to use any draft capital on WRS this year. There are not a lot of good ones this year and they are in demand. The good ones will be gone early.

Yeah but Weston was coming into it from much further down. I’ve seen plenty of people with 2nd/3rd round grades on Noel before the combine (PFF, Tankathon, Tony Pauline, 33rd Team, etc…) His overall consensus pre-combine was 89th overall, so yeah, late 3rd. But he’s not gonna go any lower.

Agree, and Kalif was originally off the scrap heap too. I wouldn’t spend a lot of capital on the next KR and I don’t think Brad would either. And I am not looking to grab WRs, but I’m not NOT looking for it either. It’s not a dire need, but it’s a future need and if Brad decides to address it, so be it. I’d get it.

Overall for me I think the 2 biggest surprises were Golden running 4.29 and Barron 4.39 I did not see that coming.

Some fascinating numbers from today…

Best ten yard split:
Bhayshul Tuten 1.49
Matthew Golden 1.49
Jalen Royals 1.49

Worst ten yard split:
Jordan James 1.62
Kaleb Johnson 1.62

MPH 40 speed:
Isaiah Bond 24.17
Dont’e Thornton 23.66
Matthew Golden 23.57
Rocket Sanders 23.55
Jordan Watkins 23.53

I thought Golden was fast after watching him so often at Houston, maybe not 4.3 flat but in the 4.3s, but I admit he didn’t look as fast at Texas. I hate to say this but I wonder if it’s something about their look that makes them look slower? I can’t think of anything else, but like you said Barron didn’t look as fast as he ran either, and honestly neither did Worthy or Mitchell last year.

What did Judkins /Lajohntay run?

I’m on shit wifi right now if I try to load other website it crashes and freezes

4.48 for Judkins, good time.

Wester was also 4.48, not so good time.

Not unless you have his replacement but he’s going to make over $6 million in 2025 and he only had 17 receptions last season.
