That's well behind his brother, and the three cone is possibly the most important metric for pass rushers. But his shuttle was also very good, so I'm a little confused to be honest. I mean, did he stumble or slip up or something during the 3 cone? Just seems like an odd outlier thus far. I have this weird feeling that he may run that again at the pro day.

Almost everything he is a little better than his brother except broad jump where the difference is 4 inch in Joey's favor and then the 3 cone where the difference is 2 tenths. Shame they never show these other drills and basically only show the 40 and the on field drills for like half the guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 It's clear that Lombardi is simply stalking me on here and stealing my takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Luckily Hollywood Brown didn't participate in the combine as he would have killed it in the 3-cone and 20-yard shuffle. Stay under the radar to make it in the 20s so we can trade up for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justone2 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Could be a reaction to what happened with Foster this year. And really i think things like this get picked up different by different guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already feel uncomfortable being in that setting as that is something they aren't accustomed to and when someone just attacks them, it kills them mentally. Now, Polite legitimately may not take criticism well or react well to coaching, I don't know. But I'm just saying what I've noticed with people that has nothing to do with football. And I would argue that all those things you listed are potential flags. Combined with his poor testing and rumors, seems like there’s credence to his personality and coachability. He’s still a great prospect, but If he has issues with taking criticism, especially in a setting like the combine, which exists to challenge you, then it’s a concern.

Again, in Polite's case it can be considered red flags and maybe he just isn't coachable. Not arguing that. Just talking in general though. And not like Polite is the only prospect we are doing this with, seems like that is what they are doing with everyone. I've already said I get why they are doing that, but it won't lead to accurate results as some just aren't used to of that setting and aren't great communicators. So when they get attacked, they don't know how to articulate themselves in a way like say a guy like McGlinchey or Wilson or Sherman may be able to do so.

But this probably leads them to drafting guys like McGlinchey who are great at interviewing. They have to understand some guys just aren't comfortable in this setting and don't react well to having their character questioned. People who react poorly to having their character questioned probably have questionable character in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
