2022 NFL Combine thread

Very interested to see real height and weight for the prospects.  In particular, is Wan’dale Robinson really 5’11” and 180+ or considerably smaller?  Is Logan Hall really only 260lbs?  He looks good in the limited views I have on him, but what do you do with a 260lb DT?

Everything I have seen has Hall listed around 280lbs, which is still lightweight for a DT. He's probably going to be drafted by a 3-4 team to play 5-Tech.

Robinson is probably closer to 5’8 and 170 😉

Yeah, it would be a bit of a reach, but I don't see Burks or Williams lasting that long to our pick.

 

I would be happy with Dotson at 25.

I agree….but we have one thing going for us- this WR class is pretty stacked with 1st rd talent.  There are 5 WRs that I would LOVE to draft @ 25 (London, Wilson, Williams, Olave and Williams).   I looked back several years and only found 1 draft in which the top 5 WRs were off the board before the 24th pick (2020).  Hopefully this will be another year. I really want one of those top 5.  
 

that said, I think we’re going to take Dotson, even if one of my top 5 are on the board.  He’s a good fit inside and outside, has speed, rarely ever drops passes and can even go up and get it.  Put him in the room with Diggs to mentor him and have him put on 10 LBs of muscle.  He has gamebreaking speed and I’d love to see how we use a guy like him.   He’s just not ideal due to his smaller catch radius and lack of make you miss/tackle breaking ability.

Is one of the Williams’ supposed to be Wilson from Ohio State?  I would add Treylon Burks to your list.  Still, unless addressed in free agency, if there is a CB rated close in that range I think they would go that way, if he fits what they are looking for.

@YoloinOhio, what is your take on Olave? I watched quite a few OSU games this year myself, but it seems like they had 5 or 6 WR's that could be starting anywhere else in the country. You've seen more of him than I have overall. 

Pros: Excellent route runner, technician, speed, smooth, A+ hands. Leader, work ethic, mentally strong. Cons: slight frame, blocking needs work. I think he’s a star in an offense like Buffalo, LAC… where he’s not the primary target and the QB can utilize his strengths. If he goes to a team that needs a WR1 I’m not sure he’s that.

Dream scenario.....

 

We trade down from 25 to 32 with the Lions and we get their second round pick, number 34.

 

Perseverance pays off and we get Kaiir Elam in the first round and Dotson in the second round.

 

It's fun to dream.

No, Burks is the fifth. Not sure why I wrote Williams twice.  
 

burks, london, Williams, Wilson and Olave are my top 5, not in order

Haha, yeah.  Even better, everyone is scared off by Williams acl and we get him and Elam.  Gordon, mccreary, McDuffie (although I don’t think we’d draft McDuffie) would suffice 🤣

There’s also several 1st round graded CB’s.  I’d like to see us get someone like Christian Kirk to address WR, then draft a CB in the first

Or…we could get a CB in FA and draft a WR in the first…

If Kirk is the guy we’re looking to pay bucks to, I think I’d rather draft the receiver and give that money to a corner. You can probably get Casey Hayward for less than half of what kirk will get.  He got 2.5M last year.  
 

I’ll look at some recent Kirk tape with the cards and get back to this.  I liked him in college and was a guy I’d have been happy with in rd 2.  Just not sure if he’s the missing ingredient that I’d want to spend on.
