The Official Browns 2012 combine thread

Starting tomorrow man crushes will be made and man crushes will be broken

Tomorrow we will find the legit measurements of all our favorite college prospects.

I think we need a thread where we can talk about combine numbers, performances, and players stock who has risen or fallen

Just think it be smart to make a combine thread where we can keep all the combine talk in, instead of having a thread for this guys combine performance or that guys combine performance...

to get this thread going who are five players you are really watching to see how they workout?

mine are:

Mike Adams: He can make really improve his draft stock if he performs very well
Danny Coale: I dont know but I get a Wes Welker type feeling from, not because he is white but his ability to play WR
Quinton Coples: If he has a huge combine he might be an option at #4 for us
Cliff Harris: Want to see how his interviews go (would love to team him up with Ward again)
Greg Childs: a very under the radar WR, want to see what he can do

The guys I am interested in at the combine are:

1.) Robert Griffin, III - QB, Baylor: We all know the kid is a playmaker and fast as a jack rabbit. However, I have some serious concerns about his size. I want to see him measure in at least 6'2" and 220 lbs. Otherwise, I question whether he can make it through a 16 game schedule in the AFC North with some of the hardest hitting and tenacious defenses in the whole NFL.

2.) Kendall Wright - WR, Baylor: The kid is a playmaker, runs good routes, and seem to be a solid deep threat with good hands. However, there are some disputes about his true speed. Some say he is going to run in the upper 4.4's and maybe even a 4.5, whereas others say he is a 4.3 - low 4.4. guy. I am very curious as to where he comes out.

3.) Chandler Jones - DE, Syracus: People say he is a dominant athletic specimen with the potential to wreak havoc and get much better at the next level. I haven't go the chance to see him play, but he comes from a family of elite athletes. I am definitely curious to see how he tests and what the analysis on him is as I believe he could be a strong contender for out 2nd round pick if he is there.

4.) Ryan Tannehill - QB, Texas A&M: I want to hear how he does in interviews and on the white board. Additionally I am curious about the foot injury he sustained prior to the senior bowl.

5.) David Wilson - RB, Virginia Tech: I am curious to see how big this kid measures in. I would like to see him around 210 and hopefully like 5'10" tall. I am also curious to see how well he runs, and how well he performs in catching drills. He appears to be the next big steal at the RB position in the 2nd round and could be a guy we target.

Good list guys.
I'm interested in a lot of prospects. Two I'll be watching closely among many.
Markelle Martin f.s. Say he is good in coverage and he is a big hitter. I think he'd bring some attitude to our def. backfield.

Bobbie Massie o.t. Good in both pass protection and run blocking. Alittle raw but what we need in a right tackle.

Unfortunately right now both rated late second early third round.

There are multiple players I am interested in seeing at the combine although I am not sure who exactly is planning on working out or not.

The Wide Receivers I want see are: Justin Blackmon, Michael Floyd, Mohammed Sanu, Joe Adams, Jeff Fuller, Kendall Wright. T.Y. Hilton and DeVier Posey.

Running Backs: David Wilson, Chris Polk and Doug Martin.

I am interested in any number of DBs to see how they measure up, I think the cornerbacks are pretty deep overall and am interested in seeing how guys like Leonard Johnson, Chase Minnifield and Shaun Prater do as compared to the current "consenus" top few corners.

On the Safety side of things I am interested in seeing Aaron Henry to see how he might fit in a Free safety for the Browns.

I am a big fan of linebackers and this year my favorites are Zach Brown, Nigel Bradham, Bobby Wagner and Bruce Irvin

Yeah Kendall Wright's 40 is the most I'm most interested in. People say hes a Blazer, but I'm not sure I mean hes fast, but if he run sub 4.4. I really start looking at him at 22.

I want to see several DE's 10 yard dash.

I want to see how small RG3 actually is I am guessing smaller than McCoy

I want see how Blackmon and Floyd compare at the combine.

I want to see how several OT's do in position drills and the bench press

Coples runs a 4.6-4.7 *

Zach Brown runs a 4.41-4.50 *

Chase Minnifield runs a 4.35-4.45*

Dwight Jones runs a 4.45-4.55*

Those are my 1st, 2nd, & 3rd round selections.

The NFL and it's anual meat market. It will be interesting to see how tall players are for real.

Can "ANYONE" explain the advantage by a team to list a player taller then what they really are??? They do this from pee-wee football all the way to the pro's. I just don't get it. If Andrew Luck measures in at 6-3 as opposed to 6-5, are GM's going to look at him in a negative light, I seriously doubt it. It's a phenomenom that I just don't get in the NFL.

Peace!!

1) Doug Martin - I think this kid is going to be a stud

2) Mohamed Sanu - Seems like he can do all the things Blackmon does. Speed is a question for all the top WRs this year

3) Mitchell Swartz - Had a great Senior Bowl. Can he continue it at the Combine.

4) Danny Trevathan - Undersized, but very productive

5) All the top DEs - Coples, Perry, Ingram, Mercilus.... who seperates themselves from the rest.

I can't wait for TY Hilton to run, may be my biggest draft crush.

I look forward to watching both lines in their drills and also the DBs

And I hope that Blackmon does do great (although I want him) so that maybe the rams stick around at 2 and then we can land RG3 @4

The guys I'm most interested in at the combine is the Cleveland braintrust....H+H and the scouting department. I'm hoping that they'll do a fantastic job figuring out which guys are the pieces and parts that will help to turn our beloved team into winners.
