QB | RB | WR | TE | OT | G | C | DE | DT | OLB | ILB | CB | S
Erik Ainge, Tennessee (9/1) Height: 6-5. Weight: 225.
Projected 40 Time: 4.82.
Combine 40 Time: 4.98.
Hand Size: 9 1/8.
Projected Round: 3-4.
John David Booty, USC Height: 6-2. Weight: 218.
Projected 40 Time: 4.83.
Combine 40 Time: 4.84.
Hand Size: 8 1/2.
Projected Round: 3-4.
John David Booty has the smallest hands of any quarterback in this class. That could translate to a lot of fumbles (see Daunte Culpepper and Alex Smith).
Colt Brennan, Hawaii Height: 6-2. Weight: 207.
Projected 40 Time: 4.84.
Combine 40 Time: .
Hand Size: 9 3/4.
Projected Round: 5-6.
Well, Colt Brennan’s stock couldn’t get any lower. That’s why it went up. Actually, it was the fact that he gained 20 pounds and threw the ball OK.
Alex Brink, Washington State Height: 6-2. Weight: 211.
Projected 40 Time: 4.67.
Combine 40 Time: 5.03.
Hand Size: 8 1/2.
Projected Round: FA.
Alex Brink, along with John David Booty, has the smallest hands in this class.
Brian Brohm, Louisville Height: 6-2. Weight: 230.
Projected 40 Time: 4.74.
Combine 40 Time: 4.75.
Hand Size: 9 3/4.
Projected Round: 1-2.
Brian Brohm will be chosen at some point between Picks 20 and 48, in all likelihood.
Dennis Dixon, Oregon Height: 6-3. Weight: 195.
Projected 40 Time: 4.76.
Combine 40 Time: Did not run.
Hand Size: 9 3/4.
Projected Round: 5-6.
Dennis Dixon wasn’t ready to work out at the combine.
Joe Flacco, Delaware Height: 6-6. Weight: 236.
Projected 40 Time: 4.86.
Combine 40 Time: 4.78.
Hand Size: 9 5/8.
Projected Round: 2-3.
No surprise that Joe Flacco missed his first two passes at the combine. There’s no question he has the strongest arm in this draft class, but I’ve always been concerned with his accuracy and pocket awareness. Still, the upside is tremendous here.
Matt Flynn, LSU Height: 6-2. Weight: 230.
Projected 40 Time: 4.62.
Combine 40 Time: 4.71.
Hand Size: 9.
Projected Round: 5-6.
Chad Henne, Michigan Height: 6-2. Weight: 235.
Projected 40 Time: 4.96.
Combine 40 Time: 4.90.
Hand Size: 9.
Projected Round: 2.
Chad Henne is in a battle with Joe Flacco and Andre’ Woodson to be the third quarterback taken. I would have loved to have seen more of Henne, but the NFL Network’s coverage of the quarterbacks completely sucked.
Josh Johnson, San Diego Height: 6-2. Weight: 213.
Projected 40 Time: 4.65.
Combine 40 Time: 4.44.
Hand Size: 9.
Projected Round: 3-4.
Looks like Colt Brennan wasn’t the only one eating hamburgers the past month. Josh Johnson ballooned from 195 to 213, and was still able to run a 4.44. Arm strength is an issue.
Sam Keller, Nebraska (9/8) Height: 6-3. Weight: 241.
Projected 40 Time: 4.95.
Combine 40 Time: 4.97.
Hand Size: 9 3/4.
Projected Round: 7.
Anthony Morelli, Penn State Height: 6-3. Weight: 231.
Projected 40 Time: 4.73.
Combine 40 Time: 5.05.
Hand Size: 9 7/8.
Projected Round: 5-6.
Forget everything that happened at the combine. I’m shocked Anthony Morelli actually found his way to the combine.
Bernard Morris, Marshall (9/9) Height: 6-4. Weight: 211.
Projected 40 Time: 4.68.
Combine 40 Time: 4.68.
Hand Size: 9.
Projected Round: 6-7.
Kevin O’Connell, San Diego State Height: 6-5. Weight: 225.
Projected 40 Time: 4.59.
Combine 40 Time: 4.61.
Hand Size: 8 7/8.
Projected Round: 4.
T.C. Ostrander, Stanford (7/30) Height: 6-2. Weight: 227.
Projected 40 Time: 4.84.
Combine 40 Time: Did not run.
Hand Size: 8 5/8.
Projected Round: 7.
Matt Ryan, Boston College Height: 6-4. Weight: 228.
Projected 40 Time: 4.73.
Combine 40 Time: 4.88.
Hand Size: 9 1/2.
Projected Round: Top 10 Pick.
Andre’ Woodson chooses not to work out, he gets criticized relentlessly by Mike Mayock. Matt Ryan eschews the throwing drills, and Mayock praises him to no end. Biased journalism, much? Oh, and despite what Mayock says, Ryan is not Peyton Manning – or Eli Manning for that matter.
Paul Smith, Tulsa Height: 6-1. Weight: 208.
Projected 40 Time: 4.85.
Combine 40 Time: 4.94.
Hand Size: 9 3/4.
Projected Round: 6-7.
Adam Tafralis, San Jose State Height: 6-1. Weight: 223.
Projected 40 Time: 4.81.
Combine 40 Time: 4.78.
Hand Size: .
Projected Round: 7.
Andre Woodson, Kentucky Height: 6-4. Weight: 229.
Projected 40 Time: 4.72.
Combine 40 Time: Did not run.
Hand Size: .
Projected Round: Top 15 Pick.
Andre’ Woodson should have performed at the combine. I know he had an injured hamstring, and granted I don’t know how serious it was, but he really needed to rebound off a mediocre Senior Bowl. Instead, he was bashed relentlessly by Mike “I want to have Matt Ryan’s babies” Mayock.
Kyle Wright, Miami Height: 6-4. Weight: 220.
Projected 40 Time: 4.84.
Combine 40 Time: 4.85.
Hand Size: .
Projected Round: FA.
