The scariest thing about Greg Robinson is how easily he carries 330 pounds. He barely looks flabby, and its not like he's ridiculously tall either. His build is insane.

They cut off to an interview during his second jump; but Greg did 9'5" on his first attempt in the broad jump. Another ridiculous athletic feat for him.

Taylor Lewan of Michigan jumped 9'9". He's been incredibly freaky as well. He could push Top 10 now as well.

I am hoping to see the Denver Broncos take a shot at Tre Mason or Dee Ford. Maybe take Dee Ford in the first, or trade up to get him in the second, since we have pass rush woes and Derek Wolfe can't find the seizure bug. Snag Tre Mason somewhere in the 2nd or 3rd with Knowshon Moreno leaving and Ronnie Hillman being a bust.

I would also love to see the Carolina Panthers maybe sign Ben Tate or draft Tre Mason. That would be awesome.

Watched Robinson run his first time live. Maybe the first time I have ever cheered a 40 yd dash...... That guy is gonna get PAID!


Also, where do they find these people? The NFL combine is like an athletic freak show. I feel like Ringling Brothers should be involved.

32 reps of 225 is absurd

Robinson is about to get paid, yo.

More #s for GRob:

27.5 Vertical. Too few #s posted to compare.
9'5" Broad. Currently 3rd w/ ~1/2 the #s posted.

Clearly his worst 2 drills:
3-cone: 7.80 (18th)
Shuttle (20 yd.): 4.86 (22nd and falling) Thought he's kill this.

Matthews: 7.34 4.47
Lewan: 7.39 4.49

I would love that except for one thing: the Panthers are currently burdened with two running back with contracts that are killing their cap. And cutting either of those running backs does NOTHING to relieve their cap hits. That's how bad the previous GM screwed us on the cap.

Neither Deangelo Williams now Jonathan Stewart are cuttable. And because of their contracts, neither are tradeable. So signing Ben Tate is out of the question, unfortunately.

And the Panthers have greater needs, like OT and WR and DB. Unless Tre drops to the 3rd or 4th round, I don't see any way in hell the Panthers would draft him.

Auburn DE Dee Ford measured 6-foot-2 1/8 and 252 pounds at the NFL Scouting Combine weigh-in.

His college listing was just 240, and Ford weighed 243 as recently as the Senior Bowl, so his weight gain was a pleasant pre-draft surprise. Ford also has 32 7/8-inch arms and a 77-inch wingspan. Teams seem to envision Ford as more of a situational pass rusher, but he can rush the quarterback and that is one of the most valuable traits in the NFL. He's a likely first-round pick.
quote:

Auburn OT Greg Robinson ran an official forty time of 4.92 at the NFL Scouting Combine.

He was hand-timed as fast as 4.84. These are truly insane times for a 6-foot-5, 332-pound human being. Heads spun when Dontari Poe ran 4.89 at 346 pounds during the 2012 Combine, and Robinson's feat is similar. Robinson also bench pressed 225 pounds 32 times, a remarkable number for a guy with 35-inch arms. The 21-year-old is going to be a top-six draft pick, and could go as early as No. 2 overall to St. Louis. Robinson is a game-changing run blocker on tape.
Both per RotoWorld.

I love how all day long the NFL Network has been showing a clip of Jake Matthews awesome pass blocking technique... and its of him ripping Ladarious Owen's (who pretty much owned Matthews in that game) jersey off.
