I think we should have a thread to keep track of the combine. Please add whatever you notice that interests you. 

I didn't get to pay too close attention but what piqued my interest is Ruggs being bigger than expected and having huge hands, while Jeudy and Lamb slightly disappointed me size wise.

All of the big name tackles passed the weigh ins with flying colors. The 3 cone and short shuttle will be extra important to me as a separator this year with all of the height and arm length boxes checked.

Also hearing that Tua should be cleared before his Pro Day is pretty big news. Been hearing Tua at #3 a lot recently with the Lions moving on from Stafford after this season.

Clyde checks in at exactly the same size as MJD did at the combine, 5'7 207

Becton is a gigantic human being. Burrows baby hands are cute. And andrew thomas has ridiculously long arms. Oh yea and Tee Higgins had big boy numbers all the way around at WR.

Mostly focusing in on the TE position this Thursday. In particular. Eyeing the following prospects:

Harrison Bryant - Florida Atlantic
Hunter Bryant - Washington
Adam Trautman - Dayton
Brycen Hopkins - Purdue
Thaddeus Moss - LSU

Would be happy to see any of those five prospects on our roster. Especially one of those top three. All three of those guys have that current trend in the NFL going for them at their position. Not saying one of those guys will be the next George Kittle, Zach Ertz or Travis Kelce but they have that look to them and similar highlights and the stat sheets to support those claims coming out of college.

What I am looking for is fluid transitioning in and out of their breaks and on their route trees. And then I am especially looking to see what they do bench wise, especially the "undersized" guys that are the receiving types. While it may not be the best way to critique their blocking ability. It at least shows some promise as far as explosiveness at the point of attack.

Which can go along way at this level as far as beating your coverage at the line to get open for some safety blanket routes. Which I think Minshew will need this year in this offense if they're unable to patch up or improve their offensive line play this year.

The thing I find odd is that Kinlaw has two left hands.

It's actually a massive advantage for him, because he is left-handed. Double dominant!

Best vertical ever, runs a 4.35, 6'2".  He should be beasting out there but he's just avg.   Come on now.

Conley looked way too big and way too fast for opposing DB's a few times last year.  If he was a better route runner, he could be a monster.

Yes it is, before the college year started last year everyone thought he was gonna be the top TE this past year but he had a down year.  Good to see him bring his stock back up

Yeah he's got good tape out there for sure.

His stock just shot up.

Solomon Kindley is an interesting prospect. He should push Cann to the bench for good. If Akers happens to fall to the 3rd I’m all over him. They seem to be eyeing RB hard this year.

Also saw Van Jefferson had a Jones fracture identified in his medical check. That may drop him a round or two.
