Huh? Who said anything about McCaffrey? These posts were about Cook and Foreman. Focus, Slopper. Focus.
Bucky thinks we will pass on Trubisky twice in the first round!?...He has him as the first QB off the board at #17 to Washington....I don't see a chance in hell of any of that happening....Cleveland will jump all over MT at #12. Hue could barely contain his giddiness when the guy measured in at over 6'2"...
My guy Samaje Perrine busting out 30 reps on the bench!! That's 6 more than any other RB at the combine...
I said I'd take McCaffrey over Cook. 10 reps is pretty sad (I can do that), but he still has other pluses over Cook. Fournette is still the class of this crop and may be one of the best RB prospects ever, depending on how well he performs in drills.
You may be right...I wasn't crazy about his answer when he was asked why he's up 5 pounds from expected weight. He said he drank a lot of water just before the weigh-in...??? Of course, Foreman blamed his lower weight on water....and there was another RB that was asked, what is your favorite drink? and he said, "water"... Maybe it's the skeptic in me, but I don't think any of the three were telling the truth...
Leonard Fournette just became the fastest 240+lb RB since the combine started keeping track.. Leonard Fournette 4.51 Dalvin Cook 4.50 Kareem Hunt 4.66 disappointing Alvin Kamara 4.53 Marlon Mack 4.50 Christian McCaffrey 4.49 Jeremy McNichols 4.52 Samaje Perine 4.66
Cook - 4.50 @ 210 pounds Fournette - 4.51 @ 240 pounds Disappointed with Hunt's time, too. Dropping Cook to a second-round prospect after that 40 time at his weight.
For the record, Cook ran a 4.49 on his second run...only improving by .01 seconds... Hunt improved ever so slightly also, 4.62
Damn. He was the one I was most curious about...Is it the same story for Curtis Samuel? or maybe he is with the receivers?
Curtis Samuel is doing receiver drills...I am assuming Samuel will do RB drills at his pro day. McCaffrey is doing WR drills at his pro day, since he is with the RBs at the combine.
Florida State RB Dalvin Cook tested as ninth-percentile SPARQ athlete at the NFL Combine. Tennessee RB Alvin Kamara had the highest SPARQ score of any back in Indy, hitting the 79th percentile. Cook was at the opposite end of the spectrum, struggling in the three-cone drill (7.27), 20-yard shuttle (4.53), vertical (30.5"), and broad jump (9'8"). He did run a solid forty (4.49). Still, it was a concerning weekend for a back considered a potential first-round pick. According to 3 Sigma Athlete's Zach Whitman, no running back who tested as a sub-10th-percentile SPARQ athlete has been drafted in the first round in the last 17 years.
Dalvin Cook - all the explosiveness of a 6'6" 305 pound offensive tackle in the body of an undersized NFL running back. Pretty sure there were some fullbacks that put up better numbers. Add that to the long, long laundry list of red flags and not only is this guy not going in the first round, he's likely out of a job by the end of his rookie contract.
Paul DePodesta is paying attention to these numbers, you can bet on that...Alvin Kamara is a guy we don't talk about much here, but maybe we should. I've seen him on more than a couple mocks, gone in the top 25 picks...
