When I watched Jordy Nelson running the "gauntlet drill", he reminded me of Joe Jurevicius. Showcasing exceptional hands, he made the drill look easy, catching every ball with his hands, nothing touched his body. This man will be a starting receiver in the NFL.

A major positive from the Combine was the fact that prominent members of the caste media verbally articulated in strong terms that Chris Long possesses the athletic skills to be a Top 5 pick. Granted, "draft experts" like Mayock should have been saying this months ago. Nonetheless, I enjoyed...

I'm really interested to see where Justin Smith ends up. I've followed Smith since his college days at Missouri, and am very happy to see him getting out of the circus that is Cincy. That team resembles a rehab/parole group more than a football team. Stay away from SF. We need Smith to...

A good test will see what Parcells does with the #1 pick. A Chris Long selection would be a definite plus.

Mike, where do you get off calling Kyle Eckel a "jerk". I'm not going to waste time engaging in an extended discussion/debate about this. But, for you to make a comment like that is pure bush league.

Could someone who follows Duke basketball please explain to me why Taylor King gets so few minutes? Whenever I watch Duke, he's never on the floor. It's obvious this man can play.

I know that it's been stated here before on this site, but we really do need more of our white players to have the guts to speak up for themselves and more specifically, their role moving forward in the league. I'm a big fan of Jacob Hester. He needs to state with some degree of authority "I...

Gentlemen, I wanted to start a thread that garners various views on which NCAA teams that possess prominent white players will make noise in next month's tournament. Personally, I like BYU, Notre Dame, and Washington State. Let me know what you guys think.

Campbell did put up some nice Combine numbers, he did tie Tom Z with 24 reps at 225. I watched the DB drills yesterday and didn't see Campbell participate. Anyone know why? Regarding Silva, I strongly believe that he'll be drafted. Sure, it could be late, but he'll be drafted. He looked...

The establishment is clearly down on all of the receivers who are entering the draft. Mayock even said there's a chance that no wideout will go in the first round. As we speak, I can nearly guarantee that a smart scout and savvy personnel man are discussing how they "must have" Jordy Nelson...

It's good to be back among like-minded men who aren't afraid to state the truth and fight for what they know is right. I took an extended vacation to get away from this cold winter weather. I'm looking forward to seeing what occurs in the last 2 days of the Combine as the defensive players...

Derek Smith signing with San Diego gives them another frontline white player on defense. Igor, Wilhelm, Weddle, and now Smith. As forty-four pointed out, Smith was drafted by the Redskins in 1997 and played for Norv Turner. Smith was a co-MVP for the 49ers in 2005, so its not like his best...

"The Birth of a Nation" is a must-see, I agree. I first saw this movie as a teenager in 1993, I rented it from Blockbuster back then. If you are looking for a true sense of what our country was like following the Civil War, this fact-based movie will give it to you. This was the biggest...

I just spent a little time reading assorted pre-Combine blogs. This furthers my view that Jordy Nelson did a lot for himself yesterday. The vast majority of those scouting the draft expected Jordy to run in the 4.6 range. His 4.49 time should solidify a second round pick. I checked out a...

With Dorsey injured, Chris Long is clearly the top defensive player in this year's draft.

I watched the entire RB session yesterday, and I believe that Hester, Hillis, and Schmitt all came through with very solid showings. Each man showed that he was an all-around football player. Each man ran well, showed good strength, and most importantly, demonstrated football skills. These...

Jordy Nelson came out a big winner yesterday. His 4.49 40 time was only a part of the story. Jordy's biggest impact came during the actual receiving drills. He displayed exceptional hands, and showed scouts how a "true receiver" really plays. A true receiver can actually catch the football...

Great thread, guys. I'm 31 and am happy that I wasa teenager back in the late 80s and early 90s. We all listened to Rock music, never any rap or hip hop. You guys know how much you're influenced as a young athlete by your older teammates. In high school, the upperclassmen always played...

Nevada, to say "that nothing is different between now and the regular season when it comes to the Patriots and Chargers" is just flat out wrong. Again, the two teams played back in September. Chris Chambers wasn't even on the San Diego roster at that time, and Vincent Jackson wasn't utilized in...

I agree, Colonel. Rivers is here to stay. I can see him winning a championship or two. He's both mentally and physically tough, and will be around for a long time.

The playoffs are a whole new animal. You have to disregard what occurred earlier this season, especially since New England and San Diego played in September (as did New York and Green Bay). Give credit to Norv Turner. This team is playing with an edge, a chip on its shoulder. They lost their...
