I don’t know for certain, but all I hear is how small he is and why Chase is still considered the best receiver in this class

He did do hand, arm, and wingspan measurements.

It was a smart move by DeVonta Smith. 

Even if he weighed in at 180 he has at least a month possibly 2 months until Alabama's Pro Day to bulk up and get his 40 time down while carrying the weight. Smith's season finished later than alot of these guys who have been training since early to late December.

If he can get to 180 to 185 and run a high 4.4 or low 4.5 he's golden...If he bulks up and runs a high 4.5 to low 4.6 that's a problem.

DS is in 160s, and slight build.  I think he can be good but like all smallish WR, durability in the NFL is a concern.

Super Impressed with Basham and I think he could play on the edge and 3 tech.  Great hands

In this class I wouldn't take him at 5.  I dont view him as a Julio Jones level talent and his size/age are concerns for me.  Chase has low mileage, great age, great size, and outstanding results.  Not to mention he already has built-in chemistry.

I just listened to Mac Jones being interviewed by PK and Millz. It was one of the worst interviews I've listened to. He definitely needs polish before NFL execs start talking to him.

Still haven't seen the results of the ankle circumferences.

DS is down in Mobile for one reason; The Miami coaching staff.

My Nole favorite is Hamsah Nasirildeen. Dude was the truth at safety and got hurt 2019. Didn't make it back onto the field until late in the 2020 season, played 1 or 2 games. But eh played plenty in the previous years. Multiple 20+ tackle games. Hope he gets his stock back up. Good team guy.

Please tell us you were not one of the fans hyping Zac Taylor for his interview skills.

Dillon Radunz was named Practice Player of the Week. He took reps at both Left Tackle and Left Guard.

Congratulations to North Dakota State OL Dillon Radunz on being named the “Overall Practice Player-of-the-Week” at the 2021 Reese’s Senior Bowl. Last year’s winner was LA Chargers QB and NFL Rookie-Of-Year Justin Herbert. ? #TheDraftStartsInMobile pic.twitter.com/gqUdJCaHxb

The brown starting oline looked good. Pretty sure it had Radunz and Spencer Brown at tackles. They training together with Joe Staley.

The LSU LB looks good

A few around here like Brown (OG) outta Bama. I am not one of them

The Grambling OG is 6'1" 350. I don't think I've ever seen that

[*Synric*]

I usually try to guess which team is going to win while watching the practices....I have admit I figured it would be the American team running away with it but its Nationals up 13-0.

Deonte Brown out on that screen pass was ugly lol.

Desmond Fitzpatrick dropped his first target but since then has 5 or 6 catches and that really nice one down the sideline at full extension showing great hands.

He is a 6'2 202 vertical receiver that would fit well in Cincy as the Z.

Late day 3 prospect.

Edit: 6 catches 90 yards and 2 drops lol.

[tBengal]

Well how did the linemen look? Saw a bit of the game but not much.

He also gave up what should have been a strip sack to one of my guys Osa Odighiuzwa.

I started watching but quickly learned there was going to be very little coverage of olinemen. What I did see was the big OG from Bama is not impressive.

The starters for the Brown team, looked good.

I listened to the 2nd half on Sirius and PK plays close attention to olinemen. Some of his thoughts:

Creed Humphrey had a bad day

The Grambling kid looked good at Center; although he's never played it

Liked the D3 kid that everybody talked about all week. Called him the motor that makes the oline go. 

There was a OT that just arrived today and he thought he looked good. 

Liked the Radunz kid

Been saying it ever since the NC game.  He is electrifying, but one hit ended the game for him.  He was schemed open all night and OSU had no answer.  Still not sold on Kerry Combs as a DC, but regardless....Chase is the first rounder I want.
