well, calvin pryor just took a nose dive off my draft board. the main thing i liked about him was his size. he's been listed as 6'2, 207

he measured in yesterday and 5'11, 207, putting him on the smaller side for safeties imo

that is a huge turn of events for me

haha. measured in at his exact stated height and weight. 6'1, 208

There are a few shorter safeties that are good, aren't one each of the 49ers and Seachicken under six feet?

Collins was a monster compared to those guys.

Wow, hard to believe Pryor lost THREE inches. There's a joke in there somewhere.

If Haha runs as well as expected (high 4.3s, low 4.4s), he's a top 10 pick. I believe it is Mike Mayock who is saying Haha is the best safety prospect in terms of athleticism he's ever seen. Based on what I've read, it does sound like it's true. Dude is a freak in the Clowney mold. He was a top 5 prospect out of HS. Crazy, crazy athlete I guess.

Hagemen looks tarzen. That's what I want out of my linemen. Enough of this short, fat, BS. I want tall, powerful, strong. I want a line full of guys who are cut up like JJ Watt. Hagemen could be a Jay Ratliff type.

and besides, we've had some luck with QB's out of alabama before. that one guy was pretty good

Scott Hunter? Meh.

well, the michael sam to GB debate can end, kid is most definitely NOT an OLB

louis nix at 330 pounds looked just as fast, and more fluid in his movements. sam look very very stiff in running and drills

and nix did look good. him and hageman impressed me today

the problem with haha going top 10, is that there is just way too much talent in this years draft, and according to some of the experts, 5 of the top 8 picks belong to teams that absolutely need franchise QB's. i can see him going 10-15 though. might be hard for us to get haha without moving up

[run pMc]

Agree that HaHa is not a Top 10 pick...not yet anyway. Too many others who will rate higher on the board because of position, potential, or production. I could see him going 10-15.
I think a couple of the highly touted TE's will be going off the board in R2, not R1.

Seriously? You thought AJ McCarron looked good red? I thought he basically cost himself being drafted by how he threw in the combine.

I've seen a lot of interviews of him, and intellectually/emotionally he reminds me of a poor man's Jimmy Clausen.

I wouldn't pursue McCarron if/when he were available as an undrafted free agent. There are just too many better ways to spend your team's efforts and resources than on a headcase like McCarron.

Scott Hunter? Meh.

I hear some guy named Bart Starr wasn't too bad.

There is absolutely no way AJ McCarron doesn't get drafted. He's a 2nd day pick at worst. He has everything you want - a winner. He's not elite but he'll be a nice back-up. I would take him in a second. Plus he'd bring that fine piece of ace Kathy Webb up here for me to oogle. Schwing!

[SMBASS]

I wish we currently had half the defense we did back in the Scott Hunter days. The offense under his guidance was pretty brutal though. Hard to believe we won 10 games in 1972 behind our D and the rushing of Brockington and MacArthur Lane. I guess when you're replaced by the immortal Jerry Tagge as the starting QB that pretty much says it all for your career.

if he brings his gf along, I say sign him up as a rFA. If he brings Brent Musberger, call the po po.

As old as that photo is, I have sat in those stands. Looked better in B&W even in 1978.

yeah, he showed a big arm and was pretty damn accurate. i didn't see him hurting his stock at all

and these guys seem to agree

Alabama quarterback A.J. McCarron threw the ball well in the field drills. He threw a nice catchable ball with timing, anticipation and accuracy. McCarron was slow in the 40 (4.94 seconds) but that was to be expected as he is a pocket quarterback. McCarron's passing performance was important for his draft stock.
