Andre Smith still leads in the Database at #13

Let's get the guy who ran a 4.65 40, long jumped 10 feet 3 inches, had a 30 inch vertical jump, and had 39 reps in the bench at 225 lbs. And he also has a bodybuilder-like physique at 6'6" and 315 lbs.

Wait that was Tony Mandarich in 1989 at his workout when he was annointed figuratively and literally as "The Next Big Thing" before he was drafted in the NFL.

I'm not saying that Mandarich didn't play well in college - I'm just saying that you should never ever ever ever (did I say ever?) put too much importance in the combine and pro day workouts. And also you should be careful of believing any type of hype - good or bad.

I believe the best thing that Mandarich was good at was Hype. Thinking about Mandarich's admitting to steriod use (and the rumors about it before he was drafted) - I would rethink about drafting Cushing.
