love that stuff


"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Some low percentiles open my eyes on a few.


If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

The cornerback rankings are confounding.

Jordan Willis and Trey Hendrickson ranking highly for Edge rushers, as did Thomas.

I gotta admit something here. JJ Watt's little brother really flashed during the games that I watched this past year. I hadn't heard much about him for his stellar play and got the impression that people didn't think he was very good and just got attention because he was JJ's bro.

But again, he really did flash on the screen. And his numbers here are damn impressive. I wonder where he will be drafted?

Welp, there goes drafting Garrett..


Am I the only one that pronounces hyperbole "Hyper-bowl" instead of "hy-per-bo-le"?

I think Watt goes late 1st round, maybe to Pitt.

The CBs z-score and NFL comp scores are good:

99.3 King
98.7 Moreau
94.9 Griffin
92.6 Witherspoon
89.7 Awuzie
88.3 Humphrey
87.6 Conley
86.6 Myrick

There are a few more that you would expect to have high sparq scores that didn't do all the events like Lattimore.

In the mid-rounds I would expect this regime to use sparq as guide.

I hope we take a couple CB's in this draft along with some Safety help ...

I really, really wanted TJ for awhile. I envisioned a 4-3 with TJ, Collins, and Kirksey that could go to a 4-2, by throwing TJ on the LOS. But I'd take him on day 1.

Year of the TE. Lots of depth, and those who believe in the Sparq score, it proves this class is pretty darn good.

Surprised how low Dalvin Cook is.

I should mention that these scores can be adjusted if a player has a good Pro Day.

Also a lot of the best players haven't been graded yet.

Do you know what is up w/Garret's grades? Is it about what you just said about not being completely graded yet?

Yeah, he hasn't been graded yet.

I didn't see his entire combine, but from what I saw he should grade pretty high.

Don't think he did the 3-Cone and Shuttles at the combine. Not sure if he was trying to give his ankle more time, only wanted to do it once, didn't think he grade well, or what. Hopefully we'll see him do them the 29th at A&M's pro day.

Thanks.

I heard the female reporter from NFL Network say that she talked to Garrett at the Combine and he said he was happy w/his numbers in the other events there, but unhappy w/his 40 times, and that he would only be running the 40 at his pro day.

Not sure if that is true or not, but that is how I remember what the girl said.

This is exactly where I have him pegged. He is a good player and his 3 cone jumps off the page. My biggest fear is Watt or Samuel going to Pittsburgh.
