Mayock said that their research shows only 9 offensive linemen in the past 15 years that have run slower than 5.7 and none of them made it in the NFL. Brown ran a 5.85! Team that up with 14 reps and really awkward looking in the drills. Probably going to turn out the be the biggest surprise of the combine, and not in a good way.

I like the Combine, the drills, etc... but game tape is much more important. Word is, (and I didn't watch much on this kid at all) his tape showed that he got the job done in college. Guess we'll see whether teams really do make decisions based off of game tape.. or Combine drills. My guess is, he gets drafted rd 2 somewhere.

One thing I will say about the tape...big XII offensive linemen have a pretty horrific recent showing in the NFL despite good tape. Something about them hasn't been transitioning to the next level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude is a freak. He's gonna be in the 4.3 range when they hand time him on his pro day. He also said he was hoping to up his reps when he lifts again.

Weaker than S Kevin Ellison. Jumps lower than Jarrett Dillard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a good one. And yes, he was. Jones was 4.37 as a former quarterback / aspiring wide receiver. Still one of the craziest combine workouts ever. That's a really good call Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't look at his other measurements. Worst ever recorded in the broad jump and the vert. Less than 20 inches on the vert! He might be the least athletically gifted player to ever perform at the combine. How in the world did he ever start at a majro college program, and get rave reviews for his play?

TecmoSuperJoe Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 So did Barkley not participate in all the drills? EDIT: Nevermind. Found out the reason why he passed on a couple. Too bad the 49ers won't have a crack at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
