I predict a 4.36 forty
4.63 for Yeldon
4.42 for White
4.48 for Collins
4.61 for Jones

I agree with all those. Maybe a little faster for Jones. If Blake could run a 4.3 in sweats on a gravel road when he was in high school, he should be in the 4.2's at the combine

@ChaseGoodbread: That's a ton of targets. RT @Gil_Brandt: Amari Cooper had only 6 drops in his final year at Alabama in 130 catchable passes.

@Marq_Burnett: Alabama QB Blake Sims said he's met with about 10 NFL teams so far. Said teams like his story of sticking at Bama & waiting for his chance

@RavensInsider: Alabama quarterback Blake Sims said the Ravens are among his many meetings here at the NFL scouting combine

@Gil_Brandt: Asked Alabama QB Blake Sims: "4.5 on your 40. Over or under?"

Sims: "Definitely under!"

The reports said Yeldon had small hands. I want to know how do they measure such things. Is it from underneath base to tip or do they measure from the side? I hear you can get different measurements if you measure from top or bottom. Also its winter so its cold, and you know what that mean...shrinkage.

Maybe that's why he couldn't hold on to the ball...

#Alabama LB Trey DePriest, who played through a torn meniscus, had postseason surgery. He won’t workout at the @NFL Combine, I’m told.


Does it seem that our guys get hurt more than others. Every year after the season I hear about this player or another having played through the season hurt and having surgery.

it's probably just we don't pay attention to it when it happens to other schools' players.

Happens all over the place. We just happen to have more draftable guys than most, so it comes up more often.
