NoSaint Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 At this point it's a bit of exaggeration. If I can't take a guy out inside a minute I'm toast. I just don't have that much steam anymore. But there was a time... they have pills for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 they have pills for that. If your bench press lasts more than 4 hours, call a doctor. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobobonators Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Bench press doesn't necessarily mean that much anyway. The fact that he can put it up means he's probably strong enough to play effectively if he knows how to use it. I can't bench 225 once, but I can put most guys who can on their backs. what do you with them after they are on their backs? At this point it's a bit of exaggeration.

Billy in 4C Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 According to an early report, Tyrann Mathieu completed 4 reps at 225 lbs on the bench press. I realize that, for an NFL CB, it's not the end-all of measurables, but geez, that's very poor. I'd like to think that a guy with as much free time as he had would spend some of it in the weight room. Oh, and to pre-empt the inevitable, I'm sure Honey Badger doesn't give a s**t. EDIT: here's the link... DB Results Stevie is 100% open that he can't do one of these... not too worried Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 HONEY BADGER! I bet the Bills have removed him from their board. But after Jenoris Jenkins (sp) proved to be a good value last year, I'm hoping the Bills don't pass on him if he's available in the 3rd round or later....unless Millner is their 1st pick.

tennesseeboy Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Lets ask this a different way.... what is the highest round you'd draft him in w/ the 8th pick of each round?? Lets assume two things...he's off the charts in the combine...and my due diligence satisfies me that he's matured considerably....The highest I would go would have to be third round. Fourth is where I would be most comfortable that I had a good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanForever19 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) The Bills have an article about him from the AP as the top story on their website right now FWIW http://www.buffalobi...e9-3842ecfea742 Edited February 26, 2013 by BillsFanForever19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPS Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Boy, was I wrong about Mathieu. A 4.43!! Wow. But he's only 5'8". That alone pushes him into the 3rd at least. Anyone suggesting a 5'8" corner would be a top 10 pick is, to say the least, a bit optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#34fan Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 A popular college jock smoking weed? -Omg, That NEVER happens! Sorry, I just don't see the BFD... Never did. I understand that he violated team rules, but to me, this is just another media-driven overreaction to a common personal predicament. Yah, he needs to step away from the bong for a second. However, if this kid is there in the fourth, and we don't take him, It'll be yet another "crying shame" misstep authored by Buddy Nix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 One could try to sell this result... or, admit that 4 is the least total number of reps overall at the combine for everyone that performed the BP. Demetrius Mooray sucked as well, but these 2 guys were the statistical tail of the curve. To put it in perspective, every single QB, RB and WR that tried did more reps. 4 is so low that the weaker end of the WR group had double the reps. Most relevant is the fact that many of the cornerbacks in the same weight class (mid 180s) were hoisting 10-17 reps. The highest cornerback (reps not weed) had 22 while one other CB did only 4. The average looks to be around 14. Too much pot doesn't make people lazy and lethargic?? Things must have changed a lot since I went to college. Well, pot is a helluva lot stronger than it was back then. Or so I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffHead Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I would dance my way to the podium and make the pick if he was there in the third rd One could try to sell this result... or, admit that 4 is the least total number of reps overall at the combine for everyone that performed the BP.

He had 50INTs which would make him the Bills All-Time leader by 10 and he got a ring with hoodie. I'll take some of that.

Google Smoot and the Vikings Sex Boat. "Successful" is in the eye of the beholder, I guess.

The fact that Deion likes him means something to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone suggesting a 5'8" corner would be a top 10 pick is, to say the least, a bit optimistic. To be fair, he has been prepping for the Combine for quite a bit more than most other college players, so he probably learned better technique. I was wondering... Will he be at the LSU pro day or will he have to do a private workout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
