Exclusive Combine Q&A: Scot McCloughan


This makes me very happy...

"What I’m trying to change is our kind of way that we’re not looking for the height, weight or speed guys, we’re looking for football players. We want guys who are consistent, guys who are passionate, very competitive, tough and smart. It’s not always the best athletes that way, but I want them to realize, just because a guy can’t run a 4.4 40-yard [dash], doesn’t mean he can’t play wide receiver or running back. All the sudden you have an offensive lineman who measures 6’2 1/2” when the league average is 6’4”, I could care less about that. Let me know about a football player and we’ll go from there because that’s what’s going to help me on Sundays."

...always thought this was the way to acquire players.

If I can get through this draft without a single pick making me think "WTF, why'd they pick him?" I'll be happy.

It's been about XX? years since we had an entire draft I enjoyed.

Edit: Thought I was in the draft thread, my bad guys.
