Medical is a HUGE issue for him, since he's had I think 3 major knee injuries.  But, yeah he's good.  Where he goes is 100% on how the checkup went.

His start/stop in the drill they are doing right now was super impressive. Very smooth transitions.

Greedy throwing in the towel because of calf cramps...

Does anybody really care how any of the top guys do in the on-field drills?  Like for some people it's useful to see how they move around just as a capsule version of their athleticism, but it's not like NFL teams weren't already going to spend a lot of time watching LSU CBs in the context of actual football games.

Like the reason *everybody* always does these is "literally nothing you do in them can hurt you" (unless, you like, injure yourself).

In his particular case I think scouts saw all they needed to see. He's fast, long and lean. But hes also flat footed and struggles with short area quickness.

After watching the drills I'm a little underwhelmed with these CB's as a whole. The big three disappointed me. Greedy showed why he's frustrating, he's athletic but seems to not be all the way mentally engaged. Baker and Murphy looked meh and tested mediocre. I agree David Long and Jamel Dean both were impressive. I liked Oruwariye, Ken Webster, and the Clemson kids too. As a group though, not all that great.

Yes. Great example of why is Josh Jackson last year.

I agree. Very underwhelmed. Will be interesting though because I definitely came away needing to look at the tape some of these player like Jamel Dean and Miles Boykin.
