2012 Senior Bowl: Weigh-In Analysis

By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell


Senior Bowl North Team Weigh-In Analysis:

  • Ohio State center Mike Brewster (6-4, 310) is built well and firm. He had maybe the most impressive body of any center prospect.

  • North Carolina State linebacker Audie Cole (6-4, 248) is lean with defined abs. He has the frame to add more weight if necessary.

  • Marshall defensive end Vinny Curry (6-3, 265) was put together well. He has the size for a 4-3 as well as a 3-4. Previously some thought that Curry was too small for a 4-3.

  • Nebraska linebacker Lavonte David (6-0, 225) hit his listed measurements, and while he is undersized, he doesn’t have an ounce of fat on him. David is very chiseled.

  • One can see that Nebraska cornerback Alfonzo Dennard (5-10, 203) puts time in at the weight room.

  • Ohio State running back Boom Herron (5-9, 212) is jacked. He has the upper body strength to handle the hits.

  • Boise State safety George Iloka (6-3, 222) is a big safety who will appeal to teams that want an enforcer type.

  • Washington left tackle Senio Kelemete (6-3, 300) is well built but a little short.

  • Boise State running back Doug Martin (5-9, 219) looks like a body builder. Like Lavonte David, there isn’t an ounce of fat on Martin.

  • Michigan defensive tackle Mike Martin (6-1, 307) could try out for the Incredible Hulk. He has a massive upper body with a huge chest, shoulders and arms. He may be a little top heavy.



  • Boise State outside linebacker Shea McClellin (6-3, 248) was lighter and leaner than his listed measurements. At that weight he isn’t an option to play defensive end in a 4-3 defense and really is only a 3-4 prospect.

  • Iowa State tackle/guard Kelechi Osemele ( 6-5, 333) could use some work in the weight room, but he has a good frame and starting point.

  • Appalachian State wideout Brian Quick (6-3, 222) and Arizona State wide receiver Gerell Robinson (6-3, 223) have similar bodies and are put together well. They both are lean but defined.

  • Notre Dame safety Harrison Smith (6-1, 212) looks like a boxer with a ripped physique.

  • Utah State linebacker Bobby Wagner (6-2, 241) has a powerful chest and definitely is a weight-room standout.

  • Boise State defensive tackle Billy Winn (6-3, 296) is flabby and needs to redefine his body.

  • Cincinnati defensive tackle Derek Wolfe (6-4, 286) is lighter than expected. He has a broad chest and may be able to put on weight. At his current size, he is too light for the inside of a 4-3 defense and would be best going to defensive end in a 3-4 defense.




    Senior Bowl South Team Weigh-In Analysis:

  • Mississippi State running back Vick Ballard (5-10, 217) has an excellent build. He has a strong upper body that looks like good armor to take the pounding that comes with his position.

  • Baylor center Philip Blake (6-2, 312) looked sloppy. He needs to redefine his body and turn some fat into muscle.

  • While Georgia cornerback Brandon Boykin (5-9, 183) is short, he is ripped. Boykin looks like he trains hard and obviously is in phenomenal shape.

  • North Carolina defensive end Quinton Coples (6-5, 281) has big, powerful upper body. He looks like a prototype 4-3 defensive end.

  • Houston wide receiver Patrick Edwards (5-8, 168) is extremely small. Few receivers have careers in the NFL at that size.

  • Arizona quarterback Nick Foles (6-5, 244) had a perfect body for an NFL signal-caller. He is tall and filled out to take the hits. There were oos and ahhs from scouts after his measurements were announced.

  • Texas A&M wide receiver Jeff Fuller (6-4, 217) has a defined body. He looked good in the eyeball test.

  • Baylor running back Terrance Ganaway (5-11, 241) needs to lose some fat. He should drop some weight around a midsection that looked too soft for a running back. Dropping a few pounds should make him quicker as well.

  • Georgia guard/tackle Cordy Glenn (6-5, 346) was a little sloppy in his appearance, but he is a massive man who has the frame to be a beast. If he can trim some fat while adding some functional strength he could help his power and quickness.

  • Texas A&M running back Cyrus Gray (5-10, 198) was impressive. He looked bigger and more chiseled than was expected.

  • Vanderbilt cornerback Casey Hawyard (5-11, 188) is ripped. He posted good numbers and didn’t check in shorter than listed.

  • North Alabama cornerback Janoris Jenkins (5-9, 191) is a little short, but he is built. He obviously works hard in the weight room.

  • Georgia center Ben Jones (6-2, 304) has a sloppy body that needs some work.

  • North Carolina wide receiver Dwight Jones (6-3, 226) has an ideal frame for a pro wide receiver. He was very impressive with his build, height and weight.

  • Alabama cornerback Marquis Maze (5-7, 184) is strikingly short. That measurement could really hurt him.

  • North Carolina defensive tackle Tydreke Powell (6-2, 309) had a disappointing weigh in. He is undefined with no pecs. He looks like he hasn’t hit the weight room hard in college.

  • Alabama tight end Brad Smelley (6-1, 233) is very undersized. He probably has to move to fullback and is not big enough to play tight end.

  • LSU safety Brandon Taylor (5-11, 202) is defined and has a tough-looking physique.

  • Clemson defensive tackle Brandon Thompson (6-2, 311) carries his weight extremely well. That was good for his stock to show that he is not a soft body type.

  • Alabama outside linebacker Courtney Upshaw (6-1, 273) was heavier than expected, but he carries that weight really well. He is extremely strong and looks like a bear.

  • Alabama center William Vlachos (6-0, 306) had a fat, ugly body. He needs to hit the weight room hard at the next level.
