1. Evaluators are anxious to see #Alabama safety Deionte Thompson at today's pro day. There were concerns about his weight coming out of the combine (195 vs. 180ish in season). His speed/weight has left his overall report up in limbo for some teams.

There's literally nothing they could do that I would find upsetting in this draft. Some things, maybe would have me questioning their thinking. [Reply]

CG-J can do it all as a safety: tackle, blitz, cover deep as a single-high, great in man, excellent in the slot. As versatile as Adderly without the wear and tear.
Worth it at pick #29 AFAIC.
Absolutely.
The more i watch him, the more i like him. He already looks like an NFL player imo. [Reply]
FYI WR Arcega-Whiteside, the guy PFF ranked #25 and is starting to climb boards, just ran his 40.
4.49
At Stanford's pro day, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside ran a 4.49 forty-yard dash at 6-2, 225lbs. Grading on pro day curve, this indicates ~80th percentile height-adjusted speed.
For comparison based on frame: Dez Bryant (6-2, 220lbs) and Allen Robinson (6-2, 220lbs) ran 4.56 forty's.
