Point is don't get all caught up in numbers. If you can play, you can play. The combine is really only good for a few select players, like Chris Johnson, or guys with character questions that need to pass in the interviews.

We all knew Calvin was going to be great. Vernon benefited from the combine. So did Bo.

I didn't say draft him high either. I just said holy shit a 306 lb guy running a 4.71 which is pretty incredible. Bruce Campbell only ran a 4.85 by the way. Somehow you've taken this and applied other meanings that aren't there. Campbell hasn't progressed mostly due to his ethic from what I gather in a few articles, which has nothing to do why he's failing. If you don't have the work ethic to go along with physical ability, it isn't going to matter much.

The fact is, at the time he wowed the critics at the combine with his forty, and had lots of people talking. This Armstead guy is doing the same thing.

So the redskins are going to meet tonight with:

FS TJ McDonald USC
FS Tony Jefferson OU
DB Tyran Mathieu LSU (already met with him)
CB Will Davis Utah St.
SS JJ Wilcox Georgia Southern
CB Jordan Poyer Oregon St
FS DJ Swearinger SCarolina (unconfirmed)

And Kenny Stills, Marquis Goodwin, and Tavon Austin all ran in the 4.2s unofficially, with (unofficially) Tavon and Goodwin breaking CJs 4.24 forty

OFFICIALLY

Tavon Austin 4.34

Marquis Goodwin 4.27

They ran unofficial 4.25's but the official times will come out later.

Its the combine, it really does not matter. Too many combine busts to even list.

Texas A&M WR Swope ran a 4.34, Goodwin official time at 4.27.

Yup, good size, production and speed probably means 2nd round pick.

Gavin Escobar is a name shooting up draft boards. Great hands, supposedly the best for TE in this draft. Only problem is he needs to improve run blocking. But his draft profile sounds a lot like Antonio Gates and Tony Gonzales, formal basketball player with good athleticism and can stretch defenses.

Not good news for Star Lotulelei. I imagine this has killed his draft stock quite a bit. Hopefully it turns out ok.

This reminds me of that lineman a few years ago; heath benedict, they found out he had a heart problem, then he was found dead a few weeks later. Hopefully Star is ok and will fix/help/correct whatever is wrong with his heart.

I'm for the stockpiling picks approach. However, since the draft is deep but light at the top, everyone might be looking to trade back. Thus trading down may be harder to do this year.
