Tomorrow we kick off with measurements and I'm sure the rumors will start to fly. Just in case anyone still posts here, what are you looking for? Certain players, who will blow it up.....who will bomb?
I'll start with a couple of names, the first being Mike Williams. I'm curious how he'll perform but I think he runs slower than most expect....still love him as a prospect. The other guy is Obi Melifonwu who I think will blow up and end up with first round consideration. He's also plays a position of need. Reuben Foster turns in a Manti Teo like performance.

One guy I am interested in seeing is the TE from Ashland, Adam Shaheen. Reports have him at about 6'7" and 275 lbs. Is he really that big and can the guy move -- is he a legit day 2 prospect as some in the press have suggested.

I'm guessing he runs slow and the agility drills will not be kind to him.

I'm interested in seeing how Derek Barnett tests. Everyone has him pegged as a mediocre athlete.

It's also time to review the film of Bolles after the combine. It will be interesting how he moves through the positional drills....I remember Flowers being an absolute abortion and I hated him coming out. Right now everyone loves Bolles and I hated his initial tape that I watched....doesn't help that he is an older prospect.

Couple of other guys I am interested in are Antonio Garcia -- want to see what he weighs in at, if he has added some weight in the 6 weeks since the sr bowl (I think he was about 290 in Mobile). Also curious to see Desmond King and Jabril Peppers -- trying to figure out if they have a position in the NFL. Pretty sure I read that Peppers will be working out with the LBs, which should be interesting, especially if he weighs in at 210 or below.

Fournette just weighed in at 240 Is that a good thing or a bad thing? It depends on his testing numbers. 4.4 at 240lbs is impressive; 4.55, its ok.

I could be completely off, but I think he will run low 4.4s. He looks like a rare athlete from a size speed perspective.

I know Roderick Johnson's tape doesn't look good, but at 6'7" with 36" vines, he is intriguing as a mid round developmental prospect.

Well, so much for adding some weight since the Sr Bowl. I'm showing his weight at 302.
