NFL Combine

Quick II Draw said:
It's just an example of someone who doesn't know what the !@#$ they're talking about. Hunt will be gone by the end of the 2nd round, and he'll probably be drafted somewhere in the first.

They act like Ziggy Ansah is such a revelation...Hunt is just as athletic--but bigger--and has been playing football for just as long (or 1 year longer?)...

After combine, Hunt should be gone by end of 2nd. I wish we are able to find trading partner to trade down a little and get an extra pick. I wouldn't mind drafting Hunt at all in early to mid 2nd rd. Just think JJ Watt on one side and Hunt on other side. It would be sick line up.

It wouldn't be happening this season. I never watched the dude play (obviously, who watches SMU?), but been studying the guy a bit lately due to the hype I keep hearing about him. This guy is about as raw as it gets. He has horrible technique, plays way too high and too stiff. He can't tackle worth a crap, easily juked due to playing so high and doesn't play the run too well at all

IMO, this guy is my definition of a "boom or bust" player. A major project that would take a year or more to develope...if he can develope. Unless, of course, you draft him for his kick blocking ability. I'd pass until the last day

Hype he's getting reminds of Barwin's hype at the combine. The difference is Hunt is much bigger than Barwin.
 
So Hunt never played or watched American football before SMU, and SMU is not known for cultivating NFL-ready pass rushers. A good GM won't take him until the 3rd round, but there's always someone willing to pay a premium for an Amobe Okoye.

This deserves its own thread. Dan Shonka et al provide services to NFL teams. He has been an NFL Scout for 16 years & in the business for 39 years. Much more credibility than the average media mock, IMO.

Thanks for posting.

I kinda thought we had enough mock threads . :handshake:
