Combine

by 10isgod on Feb 22, 2009 2:27 AM CST

This is just a place to discuss our Longhorns and their respective performances at the combine this weekend and how that effects their draft status. Also seeing as how the NFL website only posts the top ten performances in any given event, it would be nice if anyone with knowledge of where the statistics are more widely available would be generous enough to share. Specifically guys like Quan and Roy who probably will not appear on any of the top ten lists but could definitely move themselves up with good performances.

CBS is following Rak

Estimated at 6-feet-4 and 260 pounds, Orakpo is a hunk of granite. In fact, he might be the most physically imposing player in the draft. His strength — a 515-pound bench press, 600-pound squat and 380-pound power clean — is the stuff of legend around the University of Texas and is among the reasons Orakpo chose to work on his speed and agility rather than strength in his preparation for the combine.

Time Warner

But, those of us that are stuck with Time Warner do not even have the option to have NFL Network. We pay ungodly sums of money just to have the HD sports package but due to TW’s inability to negotiate with networks we don’t have access to that channel.

Yep, I think you can view it at nfl.com/combine.

Ogbonnaya ran 4.55 unofficially, but it looks like the e-time ended up being 4.60 or slower. But that’s not terrible, because considering how much slower 40 times have been across the board this year, I’m betting scouts chalk a lot of it up to a slow track.
