I think he slips to 28 at this point

Josh Buchanan, of NFLDraftBible.com, reports Liberty RB Rashad Jennings has a workout with the Philadelphia Eagles scheduled for Tuesday, March 10.

this dude ran a solid 40 time at ProDay with a 4.4 and 4.5 and pumped out 29 reps on the press-- and is a pretty big dude at 6'1 230

umm--yes please

I've heard several pundits and know it alls express the likelihood of the Birds using a pick on this cat. In other words, it will never happen.

[ice grillin you]

hes much closer to 4.6+ speed than 4.5....and 4.4 is just laughable

eagles could certainly take him because hes a second day 3rd or fourth round type

[Butchers Bill]

Judging from the apparent will to rebuild, you can bet that they will be looking for the next Westbrook, or at the very least to lessen Westbrooks workload in an attempt to extend his career.

I have seen this kid mentioned in a few mocks and would love the pick.

hes the complete opposite of westbrook...he would be an attempt at making amends for the tony hunt pick not replace westbrook

By "next Westbrook" I only meant the next featured back.  This kid is a horse, and has the potential to be a featured back.  From what I have seen and read he is not going to be a situational RB, the guy you only send in on 3rd and 1's.  He can be an every down player.

[ice grillin you]

theres a serious question as to whether he can be a featured back period...theres no chance hes ever andy reids featured back unless he changes his entire offensive philosophy

Isn't there a serious question about every draft pick going into the draft?  You're stating the obvious.

This kid can run and catch.  That makes him a AR type back.  It's not like he is Jacobs who is 6'4 and 270.
