Possible first round pick candidate (with a trade back from 5) if Pollack thinks he can play tackle eventually.

He's a guard. Arm length aside Vera-Tucker's 2019 season put him on the map when he was playing Guard. He played solid at tackle in 2020 but his Guard tape is what will get him drafted in the first.

I like the guys with Guard/Tackle versatility in our current situation.

He's definately a guard now.  gator arms.

Sure, but if Reiff goes down for instance you can always swing him wide for a stretch if you have better options at guard.

For the uneducated. We had a coach go through the cb drills with Horn today. Considering our secondary is fairly stocked now why would we be looking at a cb that high?

Because I think they have expectations of trading back and they wanna evaluate players who will be there around their targeted area.

Guys always fall unexpectedly in the draft.  For example, Andrew Billings was seen as a late 1st rounder and he free fell to the 4th round.  You've gotta do your homework in case something like that happens, especially since most of our CB's will be FA's next year.  We only have 3 under contract for 2022.

Jayson Oweh at 6'5 257.

It just never felt like his production equaled his physical gifts. He feels very Donte Moch to me.

He should have stayed at Penn State for another year. His only year starting was 2020 and Penn State did not look ready to play last season. In 2019 he had some nice rush reps as a rotational piece.

I see people mock him to the 1st and 2nd but Oweh is a guy I think could easily slip to the 3rd round. 

Trey Smith had a solid pro day showing.

Many here are against this kid...I'm not one:

MICAH PARSONS

Parsons is NFL.com analyst Bucky Brooks' No. 1 linebacker in this year's draft and Thursday was the first chance for scouts to see him since the 2019 season, as he opted out of the 2020 campaign. He ran the 40 in 4.39 seconds -- an excellent time -- put up 19 bench-press reps, posted a 34-inch vertical jump and a broad jump of 10 feet, 6 inches.


He measured 6-foot-3, 246 pounds with 31 1/4-inch arms and massive, 11-inch hands.


"You just don't see guys (of Parsons' size) run 4.39 and then when you turn on the tape, they disrupt at every level," said Brooks during Thursday's edition of NFL Now. "His ability to rush the passer, he plays with strong hands, he's terrific against the run -- he is a difference maker. I think this (workout) will be a reminder to NFL scouts that this guy deserves the big grades that some of us want to put on him."

Got that Vernon Davis speed.  (Though I assume Davis is faster since his was at combine and not at a gym.)

Davis measured in at 254lbs and ran a 4.38, so it's not unheard of. Just rare.

Honestly, I am interested in DeVonta Smith's Pro Day. I am curious to see his height/weight.

I'm gonna predict: 5' 11 31/32" and 128 lbs.

DeVonta Smith isn't participating in a Pro Day but did come out and say he weighs 170. He said he might do something solo close to the draft but that didn't sound very hopeful.

So a huge lunch then? That'll slow down his 40.
