Atbone95 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Thought it'd be nice to have a place to discuss Pro Days, teams showing interest, combine results, draft grades, etc in here. I'll start us off with a jaw dropper... 2 Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I looked at three mock drafts just now (SI; cbssports; nfl.com), and none have Maliek listed. What gives? Walter Camp lists him as the #12 DT in the draft. I'm surprised to see him projected that low. Quote Link to comment

D-line is a deep position in this draft, but the Broncos showed what a strong D-line can do to offenses, so I expect a lot of teams to focus on D-line in the draft. Quote Link to comment

Given the depth of D-line this year, I'm going to predict right now that Valentine will regret leaving UNL early. I know, I know. His family needs $$ right now. But leaving school early without a degree, and little chance of making an NFL roster, just isn't the way to go. Sure wish he would have stuck around another year. Quote Link to comment

Valentine got his degree in December. That's the main reason he left. Sure enough. Okay, that makes more sense now. But I still wish he would have stayed. For my own selfish football reasons. 1 Quote Link to comment

Minnesota_husker Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Collins is a RD 3-4 from what i have seen so far but could see him being a late 2nd rounder. VV is a 5-7th rounder. Alex Lewis might be a 7th rounder/ Undrafted free agent. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I can not relate to this. 2 Quote Link to comment

Alex Lewis might be a 7th rounder/ Undrafted free agent. I am very very surprised at this. I thought he was told he would be top 1-2 rounder and that's why he declared for the draft.

Collins was given a grade of 2nd-3rd round when he asked before he declared. I think they are given 1 of 3 grades. The 3 grades are: 1st rounder, 2nd-3rd rounder, later than 3rd round. VV got later than 3rd round. Quote Link to comment

Guy Chamberlin Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 The Nebraska DL were beasts against the run last season, but the same guys could rarely make a QB in the pocket break a sweat. That may be an issue. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 The Nebraska DL were beasts against the run last season, but the same guys could rarely make a QB in the pocket break a sweat. That may be an issue. Do DTs in the NFL normally do that? (I really don't know) Quote Link to comment
