Lacy was playing really well when he went down, I sometimes see people acting like he was still in a slump. 5.1 YPC is top notch

Or maybe the argument was whether Foster should continue to play football if he wants to see 40. This development troubles me.

OJ Howard is 6'6 and 249lbs. He just ran the 40 in 4.51.

Screw Kiffin for not taking advantage of the mismatch he is. Pisses me off

OJ faster than the LSU receivers for the first 40 yards. Should have split him out wide more often.

What's weird is he ran faster than Arderius Stewart too, but I know Stewart was faster in games, and it shows on tape.

Howard running a 4.51 might have moved him into the top 10. I guarantee he is faster than both Mike Williams and Corey Davis. I think the Titans might take him instead of a WR. He can block in their already menacing running game, and is a complete mismatch up the seam, or even from the slot.

Stewart also solidified his spot in the top 15ish of WRs, but he probably won't be taken till around the 4th round. At his size, he needed to run a 4.45 or under to really get people to notice him. He was a bit shorter, and a bit lighter than I expected him to be. Anybody know what his vertical was?

What are you basing this on?

That's speculative at best. It's already come out that the medical evaluations were taking so long that some players were missing previously scheduled meetings with teams (you know, potential future employers). I'm sure Foster was frustrated about that.

The whole "do you know who I am" thing was stupid if he actually said it, but context may matter. If the medical evaluator was telling him that they'd get to him later and he's next on the list it may have been a "do you even know who I am? I'm next in line" type deal. If it wasn't something like that, then it's just stupid.

All that said, Ryan Anderson has already said it was blown out of proportion.

I always wanted OJ to play WR. Talk about a mismatch

DJ Fluker being released. He's a RT that will garner a decent contract

He's more of a RG. He was horrible at RT after his rookie year.

Will take your word for it. I played QB, WR, and CB when I played, and I don't really watch the line play when I watch football.

Should get interesting today and next few days.

Hightower, Lacy, Kirkpatrick, Warmack, Fluker, Square

We've got quite a few guys who should be getting new deals.

Upshaw re-ups with Falcons on a 1 year deal worth a little over $1M. $125K signing bonus, $775K salary. There is a "weight" bonus available and $6,250/game roster bonus.

Clearly, the message to Courtney is "get in shape, stay in shape, and maybe make more money in 2018"
