TT, OL, and the 3-Cone Drill.

It's weird, I think I have this little knack for sorting information and coming to good conclusions. .

I agree JH, you do have this knack...that and the ability to admit when you are wrong tells me you will be a conservative by the age of 30.

I'm not buying into the JUCO argument here. The dude played in Alabama last year. Every scout in the NFL has been watching him for a long time at that school, even if it was while they were scouting somebody else on Saban's team. Lots of pros on that squad.

Do you think any of the Cincy scouts got a look at him?

Derek Sherrod:
4.63 shuttle
7.43 cone

Bingo!

Carpenter

Good call.

[bobblehead]

I think this makes Sherrod the most logical pick, then, from this group, because he is above the standard in both drills and he's an OT. TT has a bit of a history of drafting guys who played outside, then moving them in. Wasn't Colledge or one of them a tight end at the beginning of college, then moved inside as he went? And Lang was a tackle, as was Newhouse. Both now being considered for guard.

And the winner is.....

Yep, Carpenter goes at #25. Props to JH. I may just have to run your track record with your other picks.

I like Philip Blake. Liked him before the Combine and now with all the Wells leaving talk, I think he'd fit and start right away. Seems he had a descent combine and I don't think he'll go very high. Might be able to get him in the 3rd or 4th round.
