I remember Skelton scoring really well on a similar test...

I just don't get why people are in love with Young. I'd look pretty decent playing for Alabama too.

Hey, skelton had his moments. I saw both of them…

Good player stuck behind a great player.

Good player stuck behind a great player.

Agree! He jumped off the screen watching him play vs. OU. There were moments when I thought to myself the kid was at least as good as Bijon.

 

[HairZach]

Good player stuck behind a great player.

As a Texas fan he is also very high character. He was recruited to Texas as a Quarterback and volunteered to switch after injuries took out our runningback room.

 

[Harry]

He’s on my list if he drops a little.

Good CB

Good CB

Love your detailed analysis.

 

[SissyBoyFloyd]

Love your detailed analysis.

Love your critique of his detailed analysis.

 

[Harry]

Love your detailed analysis.

Since you ask. He is decent in zone and man. He’s one of the fastest CBs in the draft. He has good size and communicates well on crossing routes. He seems to lack a little confidence and doesn’t respond well if he loses contact with his receiver. His hips are a little stiff so he’s vulnerable to QBs who hit receivers right when they come off their breaks. He’s a fine athlete who could improve significantly if he becomes more self-assured. He’s willing against the run, but needs better technique to hold the edge Effectively.

Thanks so much. Now that is what I love from our draft guru. Actually, I was just giving you a hard time for saying so few words. Bottom line is that your analysis of players is one the best things gong on this web site.

That's my boy! Would love the Cardinal to grab him but probably won't happen unless they accumulate a bunch of extra picks. They have too many other needs with currently only one second round pick.

Watching GMFB this morning and learned a couple new things about Jalen Carter...maybe it's been mentioned, but I hadn't seen it. I knew about legal issues...I knew about leaving combine early...I knew he couldn't finish his pro day...what I didn't know: gained a bunch of weight (out of shape), has still never completed a 40 or bench press for scouts, refused to do any visits with teams not picking in the top 10.

Gaining weight and out of shape: not the 1st and won't be the last prospect to hit the banquet circuit and ignore the gym, but usually these guys get back in shape for their pro day or will conduct private workouts, when they are ready to go.

Not completing fundamentals for scouts: this is actually pretty shocking to me. So far he's showing he may have deficiencies being coached, IMO.

Refusing to visit teams outside the top 10: Again pretty shocking. There could have easily been a team that sees him slide to 7-10 and think he's worth trading up for....but if I was a team in the 11-20 range and I see him get to 7-10, at this point I roll the dice that he'll slide further and it won't cost anything to trade up for him.

Bottom line is the kid is either getting really bad advice or he's ignoring good advice...and it's going to cost him $$$.

I'd rather have this guy than Tyree

Could you imagine for every sack the TV crew announcing that the QB just got Yaya'd?

Skoronski. He's the best tackle and the draft community are just doing the overthinking thing again as usual.

Skoronski is the best T, Gonzalez is the best CB and Anderson is the best Edge.

Yaya Diaby is my late day two sleeper.
