i know Moore and Keenum don't have ideal arm strength and will struggle to make all of the throws but these guys are acting like they are maxed out at 22 years old. I can throw a football much farther with more zip than when I was 22. NFL teams have great strength and conditioning programs. Drew...
well, after thinking about it for a while trying to remain positive, even though there were at least 5 defensive backs that could make an impact as starters in the NFL, if any team can use Ebner's talent its the Patriots. Edelman was a qb and has been used as a wr/kr/pr/db and hopefully the...
looks like the NFL is desperate. Willing to sacrifice the product on the field in order to keep the racial balance the same, because if our guys were given real shots in the late rounds they would make a real impact, most of these guys will be out of the league in a few years. They are just...
Love that the Redskins picked up Cousins, he is more in the mold of the qb required in Shanahan's offense, his 40 might not be great but he can roll out quickly and has better pocket presence. Griffin's size and lack of pocket presence combined with them probably throwing some designed runs in...
Not even close imo, Miles Austin has declined every single year since his breakout season, I know he was injured but he was still averaging a smaller amount per game, with the average he would have had 926 yards. Dez almost hit the 1k mark but didn't have one game 100 yard game, in fact has had...
The same reason Bruce Miller DE from UCF was drafted to play fullback for the 49er's. Whites have the versatility to play multiple positions and will be slotted to a more appropriate role. I am guessing the league doesn't want too many White pass rushers, the number is getting pretty high for...
It doesn't seem like many teams stay White friendly for very long, they always seem to go back to what most of the league looks like. The Patriots seem to have the longest streak, but even Bellicheck is afraid to go all out and drafts a ton of affletes, they just happen to be beaten out by White...
The Texans just became that more dangerous on defense with Crick. If only they could get someone like Kelly Gregg at the nose tackle spot. The only White guy I know in this draft is Randy Colling from Gannon. Huge and athletic.
dont forget about Sedrick Ellis, Dorsey and Ellis were supposed to be 1a and 1b. Ellis has graded out pretty poorly at his position, I think bottom 3 at 3-tech.
For the sake of Hillis lets hope this sumo can play
I wonder what this linebacker pick means for Casey Matthews. I know he played some olb in the last few games so hopefully he can stay in that role.
Some polysumo from Midwestern State.
Wright, AJ Jenkins and Brian Quick as the 3rd 4th and 5th receivers taken and I am supposed to believe that Shoemaker isn't a top guy?
I like Chase Thomas, I thought he improved greatly from 2010 to 2011 but I am pretty sure he chose to go back for his senior year, if he did then that would work out great. He showed great potential but sometimes still struggled as far as strength. This was more of a problem in 2010, I remember...
I would hope Watt opened up the door for White 3-4 DE's, although it would be nice to see for 4-3 defensive tackles to get a shot as well, it seems like most of the dlinemen picked tonight were reaches and they have been failing just as badly as black offensive lineman, except there aren't as...
I wouldn't put it past the Vikings to have been interested in Richardson with Peterson's injury, permantly screwing over Gerhart as full time back up, justifying it by saying Richardson was a "can't miss prospect" and a top ten pick. DWF's forget very quickly how good a White player is. I was...
I am pretty sure Weeden was drafted by the Browns
It seems like this is the Patriots plan, constantly trade down and get a bunch of picks then take a bunch of affletes with their picks and hope that one sticks. They get most of their Whites as free agents or late round/UDFA. I guess it is a...
well I read that they increased training camp rosters from 80 to 90 so hopefully we at least see more Whites get a chance, at least a look in training camp, which hopefully translates into a few more on the 53 man roster, so while the draft may screw over playeres hopefully a few more UDFAs...
apparently the Chiefs are very interested in moving up to grab Left Tackle Matt Kalil. That would work out great for Hillis, never impressed with Albert as a LT.
Even if they could measure it they would find another way to discredit White athletes. Its always some reason that their athleticism/performance won't translate to the next level no matter what the measurables or times. Perhaps a hula hoop drill at the combine? haha. One study says they've...
agree as well. When I was new to the forum I learned the most information when a troll came in questioning the beliefs of people on the site. I don't think one or two trolls that come occasionally will somehow turn the site into the typical dwf forum. We have plenty of knowledgeable posters to...
mostly slants and crosses, before it was all the White receivers ran were "screens and drag routes." The routes he ran are are what most of what wide receivers run in the offense and its what they asked him to run and he excelled. You want to throw most of the route tree in there and discredit...
I don't think you would find many members that put a ton of stock in the 40 yard dash. The 40/shuttle/3 cone drill are merely there to back up we see on film. Tyler Shoemaker performed well and all of his numbers prove that. Jeremy Ebert also had the production to back up his 4.38 40 yard dash...
The Matt Jones argument is not stupid, but you act like its the only one we have. Where is this 4 year rule thing at? 1st round pick at number 4, Cedric Benson has had several off field issues with police and he didn't do squat for his first 4 years, and I am supposed to believe that he was...
Im pretty sure that Culpepper ran a 4.6, doesn't make a difference. Tebow is probably the best runner out of all of them and runs a 4.7, still qualifies him as a running qb. Blount ran a 4.7 on the same track and in terms as a runner is a top talent, but can't catch, run block or anything else...
Andre Rison was very inconsistent and if you want to say Crouch was slightly built, Rison was like 180 pounds at 6'1. I am sure there have been lesser talents that have done worse, its just not as widely known, no one cares to hear if some guy like Jabar Gaffney was doing coke behind the scenes...
I think Scott Frost was just as screwed, he wasn't the runner Crouch was, but he actually converted well to safety and still was screwed over despite performing well. I have a tape with him playing quite a few snaps at safety and he looks great at the position, even put a nice hit on McCaffrey.
