Title: Re: 2012 NFL Combine Post by: Pappy13 on February 22, 2012, 04:14:33 pm I love watching football, but I gotta admit that watching the NFL combine is about as fun as watching paint dry.
Am I the only football fan that doesn't consider this watch worthy?

Am I the only football fan that doesn't consider this watch worthy? I've never watched it. I don't even watch the draft. Title: Re: 2012 NFL Combine Post by: Sunstroke on February 22, 2012, 04:40:35 pm I absolutely LOVE watching the Combine...specifically the positional drills. I could watch WRs running the Gauntlet for hours on end. Same with the backpedal & recover drill for DBs...and the shuttle and cone drills for the front-7 guys. Title: Re: 2012 NFL Combine Post by: bsfins on February 22, 2012, 05:30:18 pm ^^ Ohh yeah...
For me,I don't watch College Football...Zero,I don't care...I know maybe 3 or 4 names that are in the draft...I get to see those names,and learn about a lot more guys that might not being get a lot of publicity.Then you have those names of 10-15 guy's that either sky rocket,or fall like a rock on draft day.

Title: Re: 2012 NFL Combine Post by: Sunstroke on February 25, 2012, 06:34:38 pm Enjoyed watching the O-line workouts today. Cordy Glenn and DeCastro seemed head and shoulders above the rest of the interior linemen. I've been high on Glenn for a while, and am convinced that he will be a pro bowl OG within a year or two of entering the NFL. I think he could also make a serviceable right tackle, but think OG is where he needs to be. Title: Re: 2012 NFL Combine Post by: Tenshot13 on February 26, 2012, 05:02:31 pm So is anyone going to mention RG3 running a 4.38 forty (unofficial)? Ridiculous!
Title: Re: 2012 NFL Combine Post by: el diablo on February 26, 2012, 05:06:29 pm He is going to make a lot of people sorry. Officially 6'2", with that speed, intelligence, and arm. That's a serious temptation.
Title: Re: 2012 NFL Combine Post by: Sunstroke on February 26, 2012, 11:03:29 pm I'd still take Luck at #1 overall, but have to admit that RGIII is making a believer out of me. Title: Re: 2012 NFL Combine Post by: Phishfan on February 27, 2012, 10:44:44 am I don't have the NFL network, but I watched a bit of the receiver drills while I was in a bar the other day. I found it interesting even without being able to hear. Some of them had good speed but did not show me much for their hands though.

I found it interesting even without being able to hear. Some of them had good speed but did not show me much for their hands though. I caught a lot of "The Underwear Olympics" this weekend off and on while working around the house. Some of the drills are silly but others tell you a lot about a player. The 3 cone drill and the shuttle drill are the most important I feel and tell you the most about how athletic a player is. The 40 yard dash is overrated for most positions. It's key for a couple positions but not most. The vertical leap is also pointless for most positions as well.

Am I the only football fan that doesn't consider this watch worthy? I don't watch it either. Order of preference: Watching paint dry. watching the combine watching grass grow. Watching paint dry can be fun. Such as when you nail someone in a paintball game. Grass growing on the other hand is always boring. |
