Anyone care to list some combine "sleepers" who you think will sky rocket their stock??
I'm confused. NFL.com says the draft is February 22-25. The countdown on their website is to that date and still running. Why would they do that if combine activites start before then?
Do you mean David Caldwell's presser was today at 1:30 and I missed it? If so I hope I can watch a replay online without the video constantly stopping like it does on Gus Bradley pressers.
Because we got two picks from the Ravens, we also need to know when the coin flip is. All I read was "during the combine" and I would like to know which day we learn our pick numbers.

I declare Manziel puts up impressive combine numbers.
other predictions:
Manziel's 40 time: 4.57
Manziel's height: 5'11 1/2
Clowney's 40 time: 4.55
Sammy Watkins' 40 time: 4.41
Bridgewater's height/weight: 6'2 197
Evans' 40 time: 4.51
Johnny Manziel himself said he will measure exactly 72 inches.
Quote:"I'm going to measure 6 feet -- I'm 72 inches on the dot," Manziel said. "If they want to try to jump on my shoulders and squish me down, it's not going to be any less than that."
A picture of him standing next to 6-1 Manti Te'o looks like he is correct.
I think Teddy Bridgewater will measure 6-2 1/2, 200-something.

I know he said that and it wouldn't surprise me if that turns out to be the case. But I also remember Percy Harvin saying he was 6 feet tall AFTER the combine, where he measured 5' 11.

I did not realize Percy was that short. It makes me wonder why he plays wide receiver instead of running back in the NFL.
It is a different story when someone says
before the combine how tall he is.
Herer is an interesting interview with the guy in charge of managing the NFL Scouting Combine, Jeff Foster. He talked about the little details most of us never think of and how the combine evolved in recent years.

I will put that on my calendar.
Hahahaha. Will ESPN/NFLN skip to commercial break for the third overall pick?

We are not talking about the draft here. Wait until May to worry about that.

Looking for the complete combine schedule is an exercise in futility. As if nobody cares what time and day a coin is flipped every website says only what the player schedules are. I figured out why when I read an article in the Baltimore Sun: they will do it Wednesday morning, before most people arrive. It looks like that is the first thing they do and I will know right away when I get online tomorrow.
I guess Manziel isn't participating in any of the athletic events apparently. I thought at first he just wasn't going to throw.

Interested to see his 40 time.

I thought that too. So far I have seen nothing that says he won't do anything.
Stay away from Manziel. I thought he would participate and let everybody know why he is as good as advertised, but obviously he is scared to throw a football.

It's likely Bridgewater isn't throwing either. Or at least he hasn't said he would. Pretty common.

He is not scared to throw a football. It is very common for quarterbacks to skip position drills because they don't know the receivers there. He will show everybody how good he is on March 27.
