    that example has been pointed out. But Cam Newton (who I really like) was awful. He showed why he is a one read then run type of QB and the only thing he excelled in was broad jump. On the other hand, Mallett was killing it in the passing drills because he's been running a pro style offense. It's night/day to me

    I agree about the Mallett to Newton comparisons. The same can be said with Locker as well. I really liked the improvement I saw in him from the Senior Bowl to now.

    I dont see how they can judge guys at the combine, all they do is work with a WR then throw to him. theres no defense and no pressure on the QB. Get Harrison or Suh after these QB's and most of them will look like high school kids. It's a gamble on all of them IMO. might be better off to draft a mean LB at #8.

    I've always wondered the same thing. I don't think you can accurately judge any position from the combine only.

    See Chris Henry.

    I wonder if anybody has some knowledgeable on the "hype" "bust" factor after the combine and whether the players had success in their careers.

    Chris Henry is the pick that made me the maddest as a Titans fan. Steve Smith was there for the taking, and we take the workout warrior. Ive never been more pissed about a pick in my life.

    Considering he may have still been there 2 rounds later even if he did eventually pan out - yeah, not good drafting..
    Though CJ felt like deja vu the subsequent year.. Ya never know..

    Flynn is out.

    No Flynn, Orton, Palmer.

    The vet pool gets smaller and the CBA hasn't been reached.
