Figured we needed one of these to get all the updates consolidated in one place, 32 NFL teams in attendance

Will McDonald getting workouts from Dan Quinn

 

[ClonerJams]

Will in Pittsburgh with TJ Watt would be amazing

 

[NoCreativity]

X at Pittsburgh would be a good fit. Tomlin has a solid track record of producing good receivers.

He could be a good 3rd option behind Pickens and Diante.

 

[cytor]

I don't want any former Cyclones wearing black and gold.

 

[CoachHines3]

Anyone see Will's 40 time?

Can't seem to find it

 

[alexssdean12]

I can only imagine Matt Campbell's Browns fandom just hoping X doesn't go to the Steelers.

I'm pretty sure Campbell is a Raiders fan

Yeah he's a good coach and that's a good franchise.

So his time is terrific for an Edge or DE but slightly below average for an outside LB?

Am I safe in assuming that "Guard" is nose guard? Just curious.

I think nose guard would be lumped in with defensive tackle, but not sure

I know he's from there but isn't he a Raiders fan?

 

[Aclone]

So his time is terrific for an Edge…

Good, not terrific. Assuming that’s an “official” time.

If this link works, here are the top edge times from this year’s combine:

I think the combination of extremely quick twitch and pretty damn fast for his size (paired with a great motor) should get him into the first round. Not many dudes possess all three.

 

[Cfinnerty16]

I think you actually might be right and I'm dumb. I thought there were some big Browns fans on the staff.
