Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma – Scouting Report
Height: 6-5. Weight: 236.
Projected 40 Time: 4.79.
Combine 40 Time: .
Hand: 9 1/2.
Projected Round (2010): Top 1 Pick.
3/30/10: Sam Bradford was prolific at his Combine, completing 62-of-63 passes, with the one misfire being a drop. The reviews were all positive, and Gil Brandt even remarked that Bradford was the best he had seen since Troy Aikman. Barring contract negotiation breakdowns, Bradford will be the No. 1 pick in the 2010 NFL Draft.
3/9/10: Sam Bradford did not work out – he’ll do that on his personal Pro Day on March 25 – but it’s worth noting that he impressively scored a 36 on his Wonderlic. As a reference, Jimmy Clausen posted a 23.
2/27/10: Sam Bradford weighed in at 6-4 1/4 and 236 pounds. Bradford certainly did a lot of bulking up recently to quell the notion that he’s brittle and can’t take a beating. Despite being the inferior prospect, he has emerged as the favorite to go No. 1 overall to St. Louis, but I wouldn’t count out Jimmy Clausen quite yet, seeing as how the Rams haven’t even interviewed with him yet.
11/7/09: Sam Bradford is out for the year. He has too many questions, including his arm strength, durability and ability to transition into a pro-style offense. He’s fallen way behind Jimmy Clausen and Jake Locker.
10/10/09: Sam Bradford should have declared last year. He’ll learn his lesson this time, though he may not have a choice with a possible rookie pay scale coming in 2011.
9/12/09: Sam Bradford is the perfect example why any quarterback projected to be taken top-five overall should declare early. Stationed behind a poor offensive line, Bradford was 10-of-14 for 96 yards (6.9 YPA) and a score before suffering an injury that has knocked him out 2-4 weeks. Making matters worse, Bradford’s star tight end, Jermaine Gresham, is out for the year. Bradford is now in danger of being passed by Jevan Snead and Jimmy Clausen, though that obviously hasn’t happened yet.
5/10/09: Sam Bradford is currently listed atop my 2010 NFL Mock Draft.
1/13/09: I felt as though Sam Bradford needed a great game against Florida in the UPS-sponsored final winter practice game to surpass Matt Stafford in these rankings. Bradford went 26-of-41 for 257 yards and two touchdowns, but also tossed two picks. Because Stafford has a more powerful arm (and thus higher upside) he remains No. 1 on the 2009 list.

1/16/10: Chris Brown rushed for just 774 yards and seven touchdowns on a 4.1 YPC as a senior. He also caught 19 balls.
2/6/09: Chris Brown had an amazing junior year, rushing for 1,220 yards and 20 touchdowns in Oklahoma’s prolific offense. Brown, who had a 5.6 YPC, also caught 15 balls for 109 yards.
Brody Eldridge, TE, Oklahoma
Height: 6-5. Weight: 259.
Projected 40 Time: 4.75.
Pro Day 40 Time: 4.68.

Projected 40 Time: 4.70.
Pro Day 40 Time: 4.77.
Benchx225: 25. Vertical: 35.
Projected Round (2010): 7-FA.
11/14/09: Was having a solid year, but is out again with a foot injury. Can this guy ever stay healthy?
11/16/08: Coming off a leg injury, Auston English has nine TFL and 4.5 sacks in nine games.
5/7/08: Auston English led the Big XII in sacks despite missing action with a leg injury. He’ll be at full strength come September.
DeMarcus Granger, DT, Oklahoma
Height: 6-2. Weight: 321.
Projected 40 Time: 5.40.
Pro Day 40 Time: DNP.
Benchx225: 32. Vertical: .
Projected Round (2010): FA.
3/30/10: Only measured in at his Pro Day. Was too busy eating a dozen hot dogs to do the drills.
3/9/10: DeMarcus Granger only took part in the bench press at his Pro Day. Well… at least we know he’s strong like bear.
11/28/09: DeMarcus Granger has gone through so many injuries and surgeries that the Oklahoma medical department asked Granger to be a test subject for them. Granger, who has a history of off-the-field trouble, has ballooned to 330 pounds. He won’t be drafted.
1/10/09: Missed the UPS-sponsored fake national championship because of back surgery.
11/23/08: Owner of 16 tackles and 2.5 TFL through eight games, DeMarcus Granger’s stock is still hurt by his alleged shoplifting.
5/9/08: DeMarcus Granger is still suspended for allegedly shoplifting. Granger has first-round talent, but he may fall out of the top 32 picks in the wake of his foolish incident.
2007: DeMarcus Granger, a red-shirt sophomore, doesn’t have to declare himself until 2010. However, the Sooner defensive tackle had an outstanding freshman campaign and was a far cry from the guy who came into Oklahoma weighing more than 350 pounds.

Projected 40 Time: 4.53.
Pro Day 40 Time: 4.50.
