Urlacher played a LOT of safety at New Mexico State. you really cant compared Urlacher to anyone or anyone to him. Urlacher was a different kind of dude in college. It was crazy. "He finished his career with 442 tackles, three interceptions, 11 sacks, and 11 forced fumbles. Outside of defense, he caught six touchdown passes, and returned five kicks for touchdowns." There are versatile players and then there is Urlacher I know in college he played inthe 3-3-5 and he was that LB/Safety hybrid for that team. Its almost like they had him stacked behind the LB and it made it very hard for blocking scheme to account for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got moved because he went to Michigan and they are arguably the best school in the country at wasting talent. Every season they manage to less with more than just about any program.

bruceb Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 (edited) Seems I am seeing more mocks with us picking seniors. Thought the FO favors younger players. Edited February 19, 2022 by bruceb tense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted February 21, 2022 Author Share Posted February 21, 2022 (edited) So about 155 players are considering boycotting the combine. If this becomes a new norm, I don’t think it’s a bad idea. Have lesser known guys come and participate. I’m talking about the guys that really need to prove themselves. The combine invited 324 guys this year. Edited February 21, 2022 by candyman93 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The combine and draft has become a huge television and media event an everyone is making money except the actual talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWil23 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I wish they’d make the combine more like medical evaluations and interviews and then let the guys test at their pro days. The structure of it is the problem and not the combine itself IMO. Laser timed 40s and Olympic certified 225 pounds is fine anywhere IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, realize you’re paying these guys to interview. Lastly, do you pay guys who do pro days? Who would get that money? The university? It’s the schools resources and I doubt it makes their school that much more prestigious to recruits. Recruits kinda already know what schools will send you to the NFL.

Lol like every other work related event, I’m sure it could be figured out. This should be negotiated as part of the CBA. Quote Also, realize you’re paying these guys to interview. Are all interviews done in public? You’re paying them for using their talents and abilities for profit. Don’t be obtuse. Quote Lastly, do you pay guys who do pro days? If they want to be paid to participate, sure. Why should everyone else be making money but them? Quote Who would get that money? The university? I’m sure they are already. Or at a minimum plenty of ROI on the free education they give. Quote It’s the schools resources and I doubt it makes their school that much more prestigious to recruits. well for private schools sure, but they’re really state resources for a lot of these programs. I’ll care about their resources when they aren’t partially paid for by tax dollars. Or by revenue generated from people who pay to see these kids compete. And I didn’t say schools couldn’t profit, just that the athletes should too. Those aren’t mutually exclusive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
