Both teams would be making very smart decisions, IMO, if he can come back remotely healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 if he went to the lions id start being scared... they have a solid young defense getting better and have all the pieces on offense besides a QB... a course prob an OL man or 2 would help also.

Don't you get like 5 for spelling your name right? That could actually hurt him, they must have cheated at Texas to keep his ass eligible.

Goober Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Charlie Wonderlic Jr., president of Wonderlic Inc., says, "A score of 10 is literacy, that's about all we can say." haha ouch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, this "report" comes from a scout who says he's "99% sure" that that's the score he got. Well, if I'm a scout for the Lions, and I really want Young, why wouldn't I make something like that up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuz all teams will have access to that test result, so said scout would have be the type of guy who'd score a 2 on the test to think that a ploy like that would work.

Palehosefan Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 I'm not going to believe it just yet, but it truly shouldn't suprise anyone. The University of Texas lets ANY athlete into the university if you are talented. Guys like PJ Tucker and next year's Kevin Durant didn't really have the grades for college, and UNC had to turn them down, but Texas welcomed both with open arms, sad really.

Balta1701 Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 So if Young did score that lowly...do you still draft him if you're Tennessee or someone else up there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's to say Tennessee will take him right now? Although the thinking was McNair would have a year or two to groom his heir apparent, the Tennessee brass is far from sold. If this score is true, then I imagine Cutler will merit even more consideration. Cutler must have been some third-world missionary in a past life. No one has this much luck. BTW, someone do me a favor and try Scott's website. Let me know if anyone is having big problems with it. www.nfldraftcountdown.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 The Beast Leonard Pope: Massive Georgia TE Leonard Pope ran a 4.62 forty at the NFL Scouting Combine. At almost 6'8, that's excellent speed. With his size and production, Pope has a good chance to be the second tight end drafted in April.

Balta1701 Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 SI with a useful piece on cap room. Assuming a new deal doesn't get done this week, and assuming the cap will be $95 million, here are the teams with the most money available entering the free agent market, according to salary-cap documents as of late last week: 1. Minnesota: $24.1 million 2. Arizona: $23.6 million 3. Green Bay: $20.7 million 4. Cleveland: $20.1 million 5. San Diego: $17.4 million 6. San Francisco: $16.5 million 7. Baltimore: $16.1 million 8. Seattle: $15.7 million 9. Jacksonville: $15.3 million 10. Cincinnati: $14.0 million 11. St. Louis: $11.1 million 12. New Orleans: $10.5 million Teams in trouble? The Raiders are $29.9 million over the projected cap. (Getting down won't be impossible because of easily erasable contract-inflating clauses, such as the $8 million bonus due to wideout Ronald Curry. Such a bonus can be canceled and Curry, should he choose to stay, would sign a near-minimum contract, counting for an $8.4 million savings for Oakland.) The Jets have to shave $29.2 million and started doing so late in the week by rejiggering the contracts of heavy-money guys like Curtis Martin. Kansas City ($120.2 million), Washington ($120.2), Denver ($119.6 million), Tampa Bay ($109.6 million), Tennessee ($109.5 million) and Atlanta ($108.0 million) need to see the light. And fast.

AddisonStSox Posted February 28, 2006 Author Share Posted February 28, 2006 I just heard through the grapevine the Bears plan on getting some film and devoting some time to the thought of selecting Texas A&M's Reggie McNeal in the early-middle rounds. I wish I could state my source here, I really do, but, ya'll are just going to have to take me on good faith. I'd like to think I'm worthy of that round' here.
