Now link the articles that say Cam Newton wouldnt be a good NFL Qb.

Adams is arguably the best DT in this years draft and i believe time will prove me correct

Adams has some measurable concerns like arm length combined with lackluster college production.

No one doubts he can be great but his athleticism isn't enough to coast on, or his production would have been greater

Caleb Brantley is projected first round. Explain how he is better than Adams.

I could, but that would be irrelevant to our discussion. I've yet to show you an article that says Adams won't be good. Just accepting scouting reports that are glowing with praise and calling the rest bullshite is showing just as much bias as the ESPN talking mouths that clearly were anti-Cam. Adams did have a lackluster junior year whether you like it or not. Stuff like that can be justifiable concerns.

The biggest knock on Adams is that scouts look at his junior film and see him taking plays off and not much effort at all. That will keep him out of the 1st round. But he will be a steal for whoever gets him because he has a much much higher upside than Brantley. Maybe the most upside of any DT in the draft.

Apparently Rudy Ford threw up 20 reps on the bench to lead all safeties yesterday.

Rudys measurables are going to be off the charts

Did Eudy not do the 40?

Wondering how his Auburn time compares to his real 40?

Showing he did not participate in the 40, vertical, and Broad jump. The other drills are still to come. I'm guessing he felt the 20 reps pushed him over the top?

He might still be banged up would be my guess

That is what I am thinking. He will probably run at the Auburn Pro day???

He probably didn't like the accurate timer...


errrr, I mean he is still injured. If he runs the other drills then I don't believe he stayed out for health reasons.

Update: Rudy did not participate in any running or jumping drills. I'm guessing he wanted a chance to go through interviews, Physical, and perform bench. He is probably shooting for AU pro day to get healthy or improve his measurables.
