    Im curious what his upper body strength looks like

    on film he stands out, but in the trenches vs NFL bodies hes gonna have some issues

    and what position is he in the NFL at 222lbs?

    Im in favor of adding football players, but realistically hes not taking any of our guys off the field. I wish him the best tho, if hes cool being Woodyard and Browns backup Ill take him for special teams..

    Ya this^ i do truthfully wish him the best. Is he attending his schools pro day? If he is, if he even attempts the bench press one handed, draft that man

    he isnt going to the combine so he'll have to kill it at his pro day

    and I cant imagine him benching a barbell loaded to 225 one handed lol, that would be remarkable if he did tho..

    The team who takes him will obviously need a plan for him if they're using him on defense. He got 10 pressures and 9 tackles against Auburn, and PFF is really high on his coverage ability. He'll be more than simply a ST specialist in the NFL, though I'm not sure how much more yet.

    He probably will end up better than a ST guy, hes got a knack for the game

    The article says he's got special contraptions so he can bench etc..

    I think he should be invited to the combo. I think he would be a great ST person, and he could be a hybrid safety/ LB. I'd take a flyer as a free agent/ late rounder.

    But he deserves every chance any other prospect gets.

    Yea for sure, pick him in the 5th then, but those earlier picks are suppose to be sure things..

    Its hard enough to overcome adversity in the NFL with a perfect bill of health, thats all Im trying to say. This kid is good player and should get a shot somewhere, but what he does well we dont nave a place for right now. Hes not taking Woodyard or Brown off the field. Rather see us use early picks on obvious needs.

    Don't know if he'll do it for his pro day, but here is a vid of him showing how he lifts in high school. Bench at around the 1:07 mark.

    They asked Romeo Crennrl, who impresssed him so far at the SR Bowl, and he said Griffin.

    Watch Houston take a flyer on him.

    But he's showing to be a very good PSS rusher.
