Williams has the look 100% for sure.
Can you have anything more made up and useless in evaluating a player for the NFL? Egads.Shemar Stewart had himself a day apparently:

RAS is definitely not made up or useless.Can you have anything more made up and useless in evaluating a player for the NFL? Egads.
I was a big Brentson Buckner fan.I am 100% a sucker for an energetic coach invested in player development.
Scourton was listed at 6'4 285lbs by Texas A&M and at the combine comes in 6 lbs heavier than too-small Mike Green at 257. This is why people make big deals about official measurements because colleges list garbage.
I flip flop so much on Stewart. He is similar to Kenneth Grant for me in that there are very few players who are that big and that athletic. Those players just don't generally completely bust. Even Odafe Oweh who started off slow and was a zero production guy, just had a 10 sack season in year 4.RAS is definitely not made up or useless.
Production can come. Remember, pressures are just as important as sacks.The athleticism is amazing...the production is not.
It's just another combine number. Very little--not nothing, but very little--should really change about how you view a player after the combine. Medical, some of the drills, etc, sure, those are important. The rest? Useless. Just white noise to confuse the less savvy GMs and scouts.RAS is definitely not made up or useless.
Really good question.Maybe he doesn't become a HoF EDGE like Garrett but at 16, if he just ends up being a 10-12 sack 267 lb monster outside, how is that bad?
Maybe it is a huge projection based on his college production, but seeing Oweh get 10 sacks this past season after having 0 his last year at Penn St eases the concern a bit for me.Really good question.
and we do need a double digit sack guy............
No way I take Stewart at number 16. The ceiling may be Myles Garrett, but the floor is Tyree Williams. Just too much risk at number 16. Assuming that he is going to get 10-12 sacks in the NFL is a long way from his yearly average of 1 and half sacks in college.
This. Absolutely this. Where you would rate him BEFORE the combine is most of what you need to know about him.No way I take Stewart at number 16.

Somebody is going to "roll the dice" on him in the first round, but to me he's a second round guy. Again, too much risk for the first round.
Most people had him as a 1st round player. Going 25 vs 16 isn't a huge jump.This. Absolutely this. Where you would rate him BEFORE the combine is most of what you need to know about him.

I mean Stewart is testing at Myles Garrett levels. absurd.
Good info. I have very little notion of where many of these prospects are supposed to go. I am generally leery of non-productive college players, because 9 times out of 10 they become non-productive NFL players. If he was already projected for the first round, then that's fine. You watch, though; he'll suddenly go top 10.Most people had him as a 1st round player. Going 25 vs 16 isn't a huge jump.
Here is the breakdown for those who feel like he is "sky rocketing". His issue was always production. That is why some had him at a top 32 guy vs a top 15 guy. What has changed is that hearing a player is a freakish athlete is different than seeing a player's metrics that show how freakish of an athlete the player is.
An example. Hearing Calvin Johnson was a freak athlete heading into the combine was one thing. Watching him run a sub 4.4 40 in borrowed shoes put it into better perspective.
This is what is happening with Stewart.
EDIT: @Stout add Stewart to your list of Big Johns in the draft. He fits.
