49. The sound of the whining coming from a single Seattle Seahawks fan equals 100 decibels. What is the combined decibel level of 100 whining Seahawks fans?

Correct answer: There are not 100 Seahawks fans.

Manny Lawson, dude who played opposite Super Mario is looking pretty good. Real fast, ran an unofficial 4.41 in the 40, Mario ran a 4.76. Lawson needs to bulk up though, looks like he could be another Cole, undersized but has the tools, and the frame to add bulk at the next level.

EDIT: Vertical Leaps
Mario Williams NC State 40½

Manny Lawson NC State 39½

Manny Lawson is another guy who I like. But he's going to be a 3-4 OLB. Maybe he could be a 4-3 SAM though.

*sample* Wonderlic  Ha.. good stuff.

ie:

45. When Brett Favre throws an interception into quadruple coverage, it is generally thought to be excusable because ____.

Answer choices: (a) he is a "gunslinger"; (b) he isn't surrounded by top-notch talent, so therefore his only alternative is to play down to their level; (c) he is nice to the media; (d) he is Brett Favre; (e) all of the above; (f) I have no idea.

48. Chiefs return man Dante Hall catches a punt at his own 10-yard line and runs 74 yards. Where does he end up?


Correct answer: Hypothetically, at the opponent's 16-yard line. But it's Hall, so there is no way to know because most of those yards probably came from him running side to side and around and around in circles for no apparent reason. Who knows -- he probably netted negative yards. And he maybe even got tackled in his own end zone for a safety.)

Measurables don't excite me. They tend to produce Mamulas.

on NFL Network last night, i saw that Chad Greenway only did 16 reps on the bench press.  DB's were out lifting him.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I want no parts of that guy at #14.

[Mad-Lad]

Jay Cutler had more reps than a lot of people.  Maybe he should be drafted as a LB.

i don't trust anything that has to do with iowa

According to www.draftboardinsider.com's mock draft, the Eagles will be taking 3 LBs in the 4th round so we'll be ok.

[Mad-Lad]

does anyone else get annoyed hearing Butch Davis talk about players and the NFL Combine?  He SUCKED as a talent scout/coach with Cleveland.

Wow, that site/mock sucks ass.

Yes, very annoyed.  Plus, his body fat is 33%.  What a loser.

I guess the guy figures the Eagles will solve their LB problem by drafting all of the linebackers this year.  Makes sense to me.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Obviously, mocks will be tossed around after the combine...


...but I'll still be really pissed if the Eagles draft Tamba Hali... then a WR from Miami of Ohio in the 2nd.

[phattymatty]

that mock does seem pretty ridiculous.  as much as i don't think we should get hali, if we do draft him, i immediately replace my patterson jersey with a hali.

With Ahman Green and Najeh Davenport both free agents, this pick makes perfect sense, and if the reports are true, this is Green Bay's guy.  White is a bruiser with great speed who'll take plenty of heat off Aaron Rogers.  Yes, the defense is still soft, but it seems the Packers' front office believeswithout a running game, it won't matter who's playing QB or on defense.

What I'd do – Draft Williams or Hawk.  Don't fall in love with a running back and go after him too early.

So basically this guy is admitting that he's an idiot.
