Winners
quote:
Jadeveon Clowney, DE, South Carolina: The hype surrounding Clowney's talent and potential is certainly warranted, based on his spectacular performance on the turf. The 6-foot-5 1/4, 266-pound defensive end clocked a 4.53-second 40-yard dash while also posting a 37 1/2-inch vertical jump and 10-4 broad jump. Those numbers, which are ridiculous for a man of his size, underscore the elite athleticism, explosiveness and body control Clowney displays on the field. Sure, the questions about his work ethic, maturity and judgment are troubling, but it's impossible to ignore his extraordinary physical gifts. It will be very tough for teams at the top of the draft to pass on a freak like this.

Losers
quote:
Michael Sam, DE, Missouri: While many media members came to Indy to further report on Sam's recent announcement that he's gay, NFL scouts and coaches used the event to assess his chances of making a key contribution to a team. Sam reportedly passed the interview portion of the exam with flying colors, but he put on a disappointing performance during the workout. He clocked a pedestrian 4.91 in the 40, while also posting marginal marks in the vertical jump (25.5 inches), broad jump (9-6) and three-cone drill (7.80 seconds). Additionally, he looked tight and stiff while changing direction in positional drills. Sam simply looks uncomfortable moving around in space, which makes it unlikely he'll be able to successfully move to linebacker at the next level. To his credit, Sam did show above-average body control in the "bend and burst" drill, leading several scouts to peg him as a possible DPR (designated pass rusher) in the NFL. Given his limited game/athleticism, Sam's draft stock likely will take a significant plunge following this combine showing.

Yay, I can't wait for the ensuing shitfest.

But I thought the SECR said Clowney was lazy and shouldn't be drafted so high?

Clowney sure does suck.

He certainly appears lazy and I certainly wouldn't waste a top 5 pick on him.
In the NFL, a lot of the work they put in is self-motivated, and that's just not something we've seen from Clowney all year.
But...the NFL drafts on measurables and tape. He's got some blindly good tape and freakish measurables.
He's also got some truly awful tape when he takes plays off. I want someone who's going to play hard when he's on the field, not just when he feels like it.

No doubt he's gifted. But he's also lazy as frick. He will be the next Ryan Leaf

Former Auburn defensive end Dee Ford came into the combine as one of the more intriguing defensive prospects in the draft. He was already likely to fall to someone in either the late first or early second rounds, which would have put him high atop the list of potential draft steals. But after his stupid and unnecessary comments about Jadeveon Clowney, he could see his stock drop even further.
Ford, who did not participate in the combine drills because the medical staff told him to sit out, came out and said that Clowney played like a “blind dog in a meat market”. While the statement might be as true as it is funny to envision, the fact that he opened his mouth in the first place has to make teams weary of taking him.

Ford's stock is going to plummet hard and fast. He has a disc/spine injury and not a lot of potential. Teams won't risk the money/pick on a IR guy this season.

How is Clowney lazy? He ran a 4.53.
I'm lazy as shite and I'd get no where close to 4.53.
He is not lazy.

Is that guy serious? Dee Ford really lit a fire under him.

I'd still draft Sam in the later rounds.. The kid's got a great game film.
And the Cock fans saying Clowney's not lazy because of how fast his forty time is, do you realize how dumb that sounds?

I never said that his forty time proved he wasn't lazy.
I implied it.

Wow, bunch of Auburn fans want to make this thread about NFL.com's winners and losers of today about Dee Ford, when he wasn't mentioned in this article. Did he ask y'all to troll for attention too? I know he did it for himself with failing to effectively call out Clowney, but did a cry for help go out on at aufamily.com or on y'all's board?
Aren't there enough other threads about what a loser Ford was today, can't y'all just post stuff about him over there? Did the truth I posted about his bitch move really piss y'all off enough to follow me around today like scolded children?
