I like the production Tuipulotu had. With that said nothing jumps out physically to me when watching him. His combine is one of the players I will be watching the most. If he has a good combine my opinion will change on him. PFF doesn't even have him in their top 100 players, which I wouldn't go that far, nothing just jumped out to me with him. A couple other players I'm most excited for is Kancey, Torrence, Van Ness, Mayer, Uzomah. And Chris Smith. I'm hoping Mayer can run under a 4.7 to solidify the top TE spot for me.

Of the players you listed, I'll be interested in Torrence and Branch since both are likely to be high on the Jaguars list of possible round 1 selections. Others I'll be interested in from your list are Demus and Iosvias as potential receivers due to their size and speed respectively; both might be mid-round  value picks.

The position groups I'll be most interested in watching are Edge rusher, tight end and cornerback. From these positions, I'll be most interested in watching Anudike-Uzomah, Darnell Washington and Clark Phillips III. I'd love to see any of these 3 players fall to the Jaguars in round 2 and their performances this week will have a lot to say about whether that will happen. Naturally, I hope they do well this week, but if their measurables far exceed expectations there would be no way they fall to pick 56.

It will also be informative to see which players they choose to interview. This will give us a better idea on potential draft targets.

Of course Young is a little [BLEEP] and wont throw. He'll just bloat himself to try and make himself look bigger than he is and continue to rely on the talent around him at Bama, making him look better than he is.

Not surprising... Dude with workout/motor questions doesn't want to workout, or test his motor.

Richardson needs a QB guru. I like the idea the idea of Det. taking him, sitting a year and learning under Goff.

Will McDonald looked good. As well as Lukas Van Ness.

Foskey one of the biggest winners for me and a real possibility for us at 24. He was one of the guys I really wanted to see test. Had the production and now the top tier athletic ability to match

This is why Baalke doesn't need to just look at RAS and just use it as a small piece of the puzzle

I was very high on Brown when he came out and didn't let his horrible le combine scare me

Sure, but does that mean you're telling Goff he's only there until Richardson is ready?

Should be good to see. Expect a lot of 4.3 - high end 4.4 guys. I think from yesterday's run Dexter, Van Ness & McDonald impressed me the most. McDonald was also working through what appears to be flu like symptoms, he was in and out of the bathroom all week blowing it out from both ends. Props that he still participated to the best of his abilities. 

Dexter was a guy I would have wanted in RD3. He probably just bumped himself into the RD2 discussion for sure with his measurables and performance. Good for him. Sucks for us.

It's a bit of a red flag for me that McDonald didn't do any agility testing. I can't say say he impressed me the most when he didn't even do any

That doesn't concern me knowing that he was shooting rocket yahoo out of his [BLEEP] all week and throwing up. I think if you put the tape on him you'll see plenty of agility at work. He's a very, very sound technician in the pass rushing department. He's not just a one trick pony where you'll see him just go to a bullrush or a spin move every time. He's got good bend. I would take him in a heartbeat in RD2.

I like McDonald, if he is sick id have him do them at his Pro day.  His size is his biggest concern for me 239 is light

Not a concern to me there neither. Again, probably came in light from having flu like symptoms all week. It just blows my mind, and I am not saying you in particular, but, it just blows my mind that people are hyped up on Nolan Smith because of his 40 time. 

He's also very, very light for a linebacker. Also, that speed never showed up at Georgia as he only put up a poultry 9 career sacks around a loaded defense over the last four years. A back to back Championship team at that. He's fast, that's great. He's also too light and can't stay healthy. 

He's going to get swallowed up by lineman in the NFL. I hope we don't draft him. This is coming from, again, a Bulldogs fan. Just don't see the allure there with him.
