  • Sidbury likely could be had later in the draft. Word is that he only runs a 4.8 40.

    During the Shrine Game, one of the announcers talked about how Sidbury designed a computer program that tracks defensive tendencies. The program worked so well that his coaching staff at Richmond ended up using it.

    Sounds like the intelligent type of player Mangini & co. covet.

  • Sidbury measured in at 6'2", 267 lbs. today. Also has decent-sized hands (10 1/2") and very long arms (35").

    We'll see how he fares against NFL-caliber OT's in the Senior Bowl practices. Though his measurables are borderline kosher for playing DE, his build looks more like a 3-4 OLB.

    But we may not get to see him in LB drills until the Combine.

  • Wow. LSU OG-OT Herman Johnson measured in at 6'7", 382 lbs. Also has huge hands (11 1/4") and 36" vines for arms.

    The amazing thing is that he actually moves pretty well.

  • Also, Rey Rey measured in a shade under 6'2" and 254 lbs.

    Here are the full rosters:

  • ramses barden sounds like an ideal replacement for jurevicius if he can have a good week of practice. i'd never heard of him before, but he has insane size for a WR. if he has any speed whatsoever and can run even decent routes, he'll fly up boards, likely to the point where we'll have no chance of getting him.

    think he tops out as a third-round prospect at this point or could he get into the second?

  • nfldraftscout has Barden pegged as an late 2nd/early 3rd Round pick. But a bad 40 time could drop him lower (he's said to be a 4.6 guy).

    Should be interesting to see how he fares in practices this week.

  • whoops, didn't do the research. looks like a good week pushes him into the early 2nd/late 1st range, and a 4.6 is perfectly acceptable for a WR his size. people are gonna start comparing him to plax.

  • Yeah - bad would be creeping up towards 4.7.

  • agreed - he doesn't want to fall into TE 40 times, but, if he does and it depresses his stock, that can only be good for us if we're interested.

    it'll be interesting to see if his game speed is better than his timed speed. i have a feeling it is.

  • nfldraftscout projects he'll be drafted in the 5th Round.

    I'm shocked that some have this guy going in the first round. His stock has been getting lower with every month.

    Orakpo completely destroyed him in the UT-OU game. He did not have a great senior season.

  • I think the feeling is that Loadholt will be effective once he's moved to RT, away from speed-rushers. But with so many teams running a 3-4, both OT's need to be able to block speed guys.

    But some team will become enamored with Loadholt's measurables (6'8", 340 lbs., 36" arms) and take him in the 2nd Round. He'll be a dominant run-blocker, but he'll also get his QB killed.

    That last part...Right!....Started laughing when I read that.

  • In a one on one matchup, B.J. Raji got some push on Alex Mack. The next time, it looked like Mack held onto Raji's jersey.

    Mitch King used his quickness to get around Max Unger, who was lining up at center. I love King, but he lacks a true NFL position and definitely isn't a fit for the 3-4.

  • Great spin move by Evander "Ziggy" Hood. Not sure if he projects well to 3-4 DE, but I like what I've seen thus far.

  • larry english looks reallly, really fast with good agility and acceleration. he'll get handled if tackles can lock onto him and take him to the ground, but that can happen to a lot of LBs when they start a speed rush instead of a bull rush.

    max unger got handled a minute ago.

    michigan's DE, jamison (#91 at the senior bowl) has looked good a couple of times, too, but looks more like a 4-3 de. it's possible he could play in a one-gap 3-4, though.

    that spin was destructive. whoever was blocking hood didn't even get a hand on him before he was past him.

  • Unger can't handle Ron Brace's strength. Not a good sign for Unger's ability to handle 3-4 NT's.

    Out at guard, Alex Mack got beat by B.J. Raji on successive plays. Raji showed a nice repertoire of pass-rush moves (spin & swim).

    Unger's having a bad day. Not only is he showing marginal strength, but his arms measured in at 32.5" at the weigh-in - too short to slide out to tackle.

    Jamison's someone I watched earlier this year with an eye on whether he could convert to 3-4 OLB. Didn't come away thinking he could, but I liked his hustle & gritty play. He'll be a nice backup 4-3 DE at the next level.
