    Sammie Lee Hill from Stillman college. This naturally comes from browsing prospects who look athletic enough to learn AH's position at the next level, and with the team taking chances on the likes of William Hayes, I think this guy at least looks interesting.

    He's 6'4 328 and runs a 5.0 flat 40. Projected around the sixth.

    From www.nfl.draftcountdown.com, here's his stats:

    Year GP TKL TFL SACK
    2004 RS - - -
    2005 9 39 6.0 3.5
    2006 10 41 9.0 2.0
    2007 10 52 14.0 4.5
    2008 11 59 15.5 7.5
    Totals 40 191 44.5 17.5

    I rememebr listening to Washburn over the last couple of years and his criteria for D-Linemen are pretty simple.

    His top two criteria are athleticism and long arms. He is much more interested in a guy's 10-yard time than he is in his 40.

    Is there anywhere you can get a full listing of combine results and measurements?

    The analysis on him is he will go in the middle rounds. Said he needs work on his technique which isn't abnormal coming from a small school. The guy is huge (weighed 329 at the combine). His vertical jump was 30 inches which is unreal for a guy that big. My guess with his combine showing and the fact he could play anything from 3-4 DE, NT or 4-3 DT that he might go in the 3rd round. This could be a guy Washburn can make into something special.

    About the best I can find. Vance Walker's got some nice wings and huge hands. I'd be willing to bet we'll take a hard look at him.

    I also like Terrence Knighton in the mid-late rounds.
