2012 Senior Bowl: Monday Practice Report
Mike Adams, OT, Ohio State Mike Adams is off to a good start. Amid reports by the National Football Post's Wes Bunting that some teams are considering Adams to be a top-15 prospect, the Ohio State tackle fared well in the drills. Vinny Curry beat him once when he got leverage, but Adams handled him and another defensive lineman on the other occasions.
"He's got the length you want and good feet," said Mike Mayock.
Alfonzo Dennard, CB, Nebraska Alfonzo Dennard was one of the players who hurt himself the most on Monday. First of all, he measured in at an even 5-10 at the weigh-ins. That's not going to kill him, but teams looking for taller corners won't be interested. What really damaged Dennard's stock was how he looked in the drills. He was really stiff in the hips and lost in the one-on-one drills.
Scott Wright from DraftCountdown.com said it best: "Alfonzo Dennard hasn't looked like a first-round pick in any way so far. Fine when action is in front but can't turn and run."
Donnie Fletcher, CB/FS, Boston College Mike Mayock is a Boston College guy, so when he criticizes an Eagle, you know that player isn't any good. Mayock opined that Fletcher probably won't be able to play cornerback in the NFL, as he criticized his tight hips.
Mayock then suggested that Fletcher might have to play free safety, but pointed out that Fletcher doesn't hit aggressively. A safety who doesn't hit aggressively isn't going to be in the league very long.
Melvin Ingram, DE, South Carolina Two areas of concern for Melvin Ingram at the weigh-in: First, he was only 6-1, 7/8, which is too small for a defensive end. More problematic are his 30 1/2-inch arms, which will almost certainly hurt him at the next level.
Leonard Johnson, CB, Iowa State One corner Mike Mayock likes is Leonard Johnson. Mayock compared Johnson to Brandon Flowers. The Iowa State product was beat once in the one-on-one drills, but getting heavy praise like that from Mayock has to give his stock a slight boost.
Kellen Moore, QB, Boise State I'm rooting for Kellen Moore because no one else is. No one had anything positive to say about Moore today, as some criticized his measurements (5-11 3/4, 191), while others predicted that he would be exposed this week. And he almost definitely will be. It could get so bad that Moore won't even be drafted. I hope not, but it's a possibility.
Mike Mayock isn't much of a fan either, but he did have one positive thing to say about the Boise quarterback: "He does not have big arm. He can't drive it outside numbers. But nobody understands the game any better."
In other words, Moore has a chance to be a solid backup quarterback in the NFL, but he doesn't have any starting potential.
Kelechi Osemele, G, Iowa State We can now confirm that Kelechi Osemele has no shot at being a right tackle. He was completely exposed in the one-on-one drills while playing outside. I have no idea why the Senior Bowl coaches lined him up at tackle. He looked really bad. Fortunately, he has great potential at guard.
Brian Quick, WR, Appalachian State Brian Quick was the consensus most physically impressive receiver during the weigh-ins. He measured in at 6-3 1/2, 222 pounds, with very long 33 1/2-inch arms.
Johnnie Troutman, G, Penn State I want to have good things to say about a fellow Penn Stater, but Johnnie Troutman was beaten like a mule in the one-on-one drills. He doesn't look like a draftable prospect.
Russell Wilson, QB, Wisconsin Mike Mayock had glowing things to say about Russell Wilson:
"He could be Doug Flutie. I mean, that's how good this kid is. He has an innate understanding of making plays. He's a playmaker. I don't care how tall he is. He's got a good enough arm. That kid is special."
Mayock also complimented Wilson's arm strength, which is something that critics are skeptical about. He has a good chance to be a third-round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft.

Hi there KB ... thank you so much for your message, I am doing OK. I have been hnaivg a few health problems which have been causing me some grief but surgery at the end of this month will hopefully fix that for me. My brother, who has a chronic kidney disease, has been very unwell also. His kidneys are only functioning now at 20% after a double bout of pneumonia in the last 12 months. If is kidneys deteriorate to 15% he will have to start dialysis, we are all very concerned and are hoping for a miracle. Anyway, I just wanted you to know that finding your comment was really nice, thank you.As for Gridiron.... my husband played it for 5 years & it is the longest game I think there is on the planet & they really are like 4 hours long. I watched lots of games but I still had trouble understanding all the plays etc. Rugby league is much less confusing. have great week...cheers Kath

You? are correct. NO pargorm will work unless you change your diet. If you eat bad foods and lots of calories you will stay the same. But if you do and use vibration exercise, you can lose up to 4 times as much fat as with regular exercise. You can read the report done on this by searching Congress on Obesity vibration exercise . Very impressive results.

John 62050 . I think it's 17.50 million. Chad 6 mill Carson 11.5 mill.Lots of room there to sign some Free Agents if the money is right. Worth iontng it's a rarity for the Bengals to ever be up against the CAP. With dwindling attendance, maybe Mike will get creative and sign some big time free agents.

Seems to me this lockout is nnosense. For the one day the lockout was null, the coaches rushed to get the playbook into the hands of any takers. Then afterwards they say, we can't talk to the players but nothing prevents the players from sharing! On the one hand they want to punish the players. On the other they have a vested interest that the players remain in shape and ready to go! This is all a charade.

anything. Carry on. At least we got Osama, right?I can usually teralote Simmons' NBA stuff, but his most recent mishmash of Wire quotes combined with a double-installment rambling about the first round of the NBA playoffs was perhaps the most unreadable thing he's ever posted. It's one of the few written things I've ever walked away from unfinished and I've read Atlas Shrugged.
