NFL Combine

[tneun89 978]

I think people are making too much of Kyren. He was a Top 5 RB on most "experts" draft boards. He can still go Day 2. The tape doesn't lie.

I didn’t think he would go till the third honestly. This was before this year. And that still hasn’t changed. Although I can see someone taking him in the second. 
my reason being- running backs are a dime a dozen nowadays. Is he an every down back. -Nope. Is he a third down specialist  -Probably. But being that is that worth a Day 2 pickup?  
Williams also reminds me of Darius Walker in the sense that he’s not a blazer, a patient runner, likes to use fakes but not overly elusive. He’s a strong back for college but in the NFL he’s not going to fall forward as much as he did. He’s not that big. 
Also, with his style of running he’s at best a Leveon Bell runner. But he better hope he has that Pittsburgh line and offense. Once Bell left he has become a nobody. That’s what scares me with Williams. He’s going to need that perfect system like Bell-like Walker to have a long career. There’s my Mel Kiper evaluation. I’m no expert by any means and I hope for the best for him. I just don’t see it.  That’s why his grade isn’t surprising

Not the end the world, still scored a 6.10

I had to look that up; didn't know how to assess a prospect grade.

Hamilton was referred to as the biggest loser at Safety at the Combine. Needs to improve his 40 time at his Pro Day. Rumored to be out of the top 5

Unpopular opinion alert: At 6'4 Kyle projects a tweener between safety and outside Linebacker in the pro's. BUT he will go in the 1st round and have a chance to start, The 4.59 explains why Kyle spent a brief time as a 3 star recruit for some recruiting services. 6.88 was the highest number any prospect was given this year. His film will speak loudly.

I think so too. Sometimes I think those events are overrated

[Tailgate Approved 248]

Kyle is a unicorn.

His tape is incredible (shows great range, ability to read plays, tackling, coverage), he nailed the position drills, and he moves fluidly for his size. Any team that wants to knock him for a 40 time doesn't deserve him.

I still think he goes in the top 5.

[Soko 128]

Hamilton is far from a tweener. And 4.59 is not slow enough to knock him down. 

[TexasDomer 1,288]

Chris Trapasso with CBSSports.com has his list of the Top 50 prospects.

Kyle is #1 on the list

Tweener the way I used it there means he hits like a linebacker and covers like a safety. So let me say Hybrid. Hybrid's change the game, modernize it and make it even better

Hybrid is much more accurate.

For Hamilton…. He doesn’t have to be a blazer when he’s that tall. Plus he has a long stride. He makes up for any speed issues. He’s also pretty damn smart when reading qb’s. Someone would be foolish to drop him out of the top 10 for a forty time.

Really want the Lions to pick Hamilton at #2 but I have a feeling if the douche canoe from meatchicken is there they'll take him.

I just really dislike anything from that school.

Where did this expression come from? I have never heard it before last week and now I have heard it a dozen times. I like it, it paints a picture.

I heard it from a buddies wife. Spit my beer everywhere.

ND had their pro day today. Kyren improved is 40 to 4.54. A lot better than the combine and should ensure he gets drafted.
