Fine to discuss the prospects, but I would try to avoid bringing attention to the fact that they haven't been drafted yet. Er, why? During the real thing, viewers are constantly hit with the ten best available according to Kiper or McShay or Jeremiah or whomever. If your pick is 5 slots away and your target gets nabbed, you should have made a move for him if it was important to you. Or just take whomever you like best when it's your turn to pick.

Trojan Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Mazi and Musgrave was my top two on BB and I've been reading that Bruce Feldman write up about Mazi's athleticism talking myself into taking him over the need in TE. In case y'all haven't read it here's @winitall's prospect: #1. Mazi Smith, Michigan, defensive tackle His former teammate, Aidan Hutchinson, almost was our top guy in 2021, but this year a Wolverine is the No. 1 Freak in college football. The 6-foot-3, 337-pound senior has rare power and agility. So rare, in fact, it’s hard to find the right superlative to begin with. But let’s start with this: Smith does 22 reps on the bench press, but that’s with 325 (not 225). He close-grip benched 550 pounds. He vertical-jumps 33 inches. He broad-jumped 9-4 1/2. Smith, who had 37 tackles last season, has clocked a 4.41 shuttle time, which would’ve tied the best by any defensive tackle at this year’s NFL Scouting Combine, and it would’ve been better than any defensive tackle weighing 310 pounds or more in the past decade. His 6.95 3-cone time would’ve been by far the fastest among defensive tackles in Indianapolis. The fastest was 7.33. Smith’s 60-yard shuttle time is 11.90. The Wolverines do a reactive plyo stairs test, which is a series of seven 26-inch high stairs that players attempt to jump up as fast as possible. The team record is 2.21 seconds. Smith did it in 2.82. To better gauge just how impressive that is, Hutchinson, some 60 pounds lighter than Smith, did it in 2.57. Even more remarkable: The Wolverines also do a workout on their combo-twist machine, which is designed to show a player’s ability to rotate an opponent but also their ability to resist being rotated in the trenches. Smith had the machine completely tapped out. There was only enough room for 300 pounds on each side of the machine for a 600-pound max. “For Mazi, it wasn’t even challenging,” says one of the Wolverine strength coaches. A staffer called the manufacturer to see if there was a way to extend it, then ultimately contacted a private company to build custom extenders for the combo-twist, which made it capable of loading up to 800 pounds to accommodate Smith. “Mazi’s rotational strength is ridiculous,” said longtime Michigan strength coach Ben Herbert, who said Smith is the strongest defensive lineman he’s seen in 25 years in the business. “He is an incredible combination of rare traits packaged into one player. He is just ridiculously strong and powerful.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the people I listen to/follow have a late first to early 2nd on him. This is about where I had him too. He was towards the top of my big board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justone2 Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 If Mazi had participated in the Combine he would've 100% been a higher pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got to run some errands but should be back in time to accept or make it. If not, I'm saying it now, that I accept the offer should I get on the clock in the next hour or two. Ok I'll go ahead and make the selection. Just wanted to make sure Mike acknowledged the trade first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglesfan0075 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 The Cowboys traded up to secure their long term starter at LG after bringing in AJ Cann on a 1 year deal to add depth to the position. Steve Avila can push Cann right away to be the starter at LG as a rookie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
