Case Keenum traded to Redskins
White Linen replied to FluffHead's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Increases it, IMO -
I do think all the information that comes from the combine matter. The interviews being the obvious one to require a physical presence. I do think that the majority of how a GM receives information and decides on it, comes from film. Let's just take N'Keal Harry for example. Everywhere, including the schools website has him listed as 6'4". He measured in just over 6'2. Metcalf, who's being described as a physical freak benched pressed 225 - 27 times. So did Harry. This is information that while may not override film - is still important to any GM.

I'd give him a shot to make the team.

Report: Browns looking to deal Guard Kevin Zeitler
White Linen replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You have a deal -
Obviously the draft and FA are two different approaches. If you take the same philosophy of projection in FA - you're in deep deep trouble. And when I say deep trouble, I mean when you pay someone the money for what they haven't done yet. Now you can get burned also by a FA because a player can have done it and then not for your team but that has to be the baseline, IMO. I like Williams and I think he can be a good WR, but I'm for value and I think our FO is too. Draft picks are so inexpensive they have value. So it's much different than the top free agents in terms of risk vs money spent.

Zeitler and Duke Johnson for our 2 4th round picks. -
Why not Eric Weddle for a year?
White Linen replied to Seasons1992's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's not a need. Depth maybe, but we have no need for a starter. -
I totally agree. I'll gladly pay for a FA that I know what he can do - I'm not paying a WR hoping he can play up to the money. That's bad business. I also agree that I want one of those slot guys (i.e Humphries or Beasley). I like a guy a guy that catches a lot of balls and they both do. I'll get the yards from my outside guys. Secondly, I want anything that pushes either Zay out or forces him to win the job. I'm not moving forward with him having a spot. He'll either earn it or not play. I draft a rookie in round 1 or 2 to be my other outside guy while Foster and Williams fight for the other. I like what McKenzie did late last year and I'd love the idea of trading for Duke Williams. I think all of that gives us multiple weapons that can do multiple things.

I only discuss why to sign someone.
