  • 2020 NFL Draft

    Thought I'd put this out there for those watching the combines and following the draft mocks.

    Most amazing stats (to me) so far:

    - Michael Turk - a PUNTER - pushing 25 reps at 225 lbs on the bench. Better than every TE, WR and all but one RB from what I saw. How would you like to be a TE in the interviews who gets asked why he couldn't do 2/3rds the reps of a punter?
    - Mekhi Becton turning a 5.11 40 yard dash. In 2008, I felt pretty proud of myself for testing in at just under a 5-flat 40. Yeah, I was a lot older than Becton, but I was in marathon training and weighed between 155-160 lbs. Becton weighs between 355-365 lbs and ran just a shade slower. That's just incredible.
    I'm just here for the baseball.

    The Giants need Becton desperately!

      Clemson's Isaiah Simmons ran a 4.39-second 40-yard dash, posted a 39-inch vertical and hit an 11-foot broad jump at the combine. Incredible numbers for anyone. But, this guy is a 6-foot-4 and 238-pound linebacker! Simmons is expected to be a top 10 pick in the draft.

          Am I safe in concluding the Giants need just about everyone desperately?

              He didn't mention Turk.

                    The Raiders (12 & 19) and Jaguars (9 & 20) also have two top 20 picks this year.

                        Somehow, someway, I need to find a way to get on the New Orleans in-person draft team:

                        The New Orleans Saints are planning to hold their draft war room at the Dixie Brewery in New Orleans, which is also owned by team owner Gayle Benson, since the NFL forced its teams to shut down its facilities amid the coronavirus pandemic.

                          The NFL is finally facing the reality of the pandemic, now saying the Draft will be completely virtual.

                            I'll bet every AFC team moves to a top-secret location for their draft room. Somehow, I have this suspicion that Bill B. is talking to his CIA friends on how to jam their cell phones and DOS their WiFi.

                              His drug test was flagged. You might not want him that desperately...
