It is reported that Bradford’s shoulder examination went excellent. I am also hearing that a dozen or possibly more NFL GMs were asked about Clausen and Bradford and all of them liked Bradford more. I still like Clausen more, but that won’t matter, if the Rams like him more. I haven’t made this decision final, but I think I could have Bradford atop my mock next week. He also bulked up from 218 to 236, a very impressive feat and necessary for someone whose arm strength was a question mark.
QB Colt McCoy– DOWN
McCoy measured in at 6-1 at his weigh in. Might as well add that to the list of reasons why he won’t work out in the NFL, no experience in a pro style offense, a weak arm, and now a small frame.
RB Jonathan Dwyer– DOWN
He just looked like a fat guy at his weigh in. He was 5-11 229 which sounds good, but he did not look in shape at all.
RB/WR Brandon Banks Down
Banks is deadly fast and even swifter, but the Kansas State all purpose guy, who has in the past drawn comparisons to Darren Sproles, weighed in at 149 pounds at the combine. That’s like the size of a skinny high school freshman. He don’t care how fast or swift he is or how well he did as a kick returner last year, I can’t see him in the NFL, even as a kick returner. He’s just too small.
WR Golden Tate Down
We knew Tate was on the short side, but he barely measured at 5-10 at his weigh in. There aren’t a lot of #1 options that are that short. He’ll still be a good player and he’s the second most NFL ready player in this draft class after Damian Williams, but he has future #2 written all over him and not future #1.
