    The Top 3 OT's Looked Very Good Saturday

    Jake Matthews Texas A&M 6-5 305
    Greg Robinson Auburn 6-5 320
    Taylor Lewan Michigan 6-7 315

    All 3 backed up their excellent game film with great footwork in the Combine drills. Very impressive.

    Seems to be plenty of acceptable choices at #9. If it's any of these 3, I'll be thinking " good pick " after hearing their name.

      Geez those are some big guys. For guys like that to have good footwork sounds too good to pass up. Where do I sign up?

        NFL Combine: O-Line Kick things off in impressive fashion

        Anthony D. Macari @nflwarroom







        Greg Robinson is an impressive human specimen. 6'-5" 332lbs with 35" arms. Puts up 32 reps on the bench and then blows the doors off the 40 with an unofficial 4.84, which would be good for a TE. I really can't see him slipping out of the top 5 and I have him going #2 overall.


        Right behind Robinson in the early going at the combine would be the performance of Taylor Lewan. Lewan at 6'7" 309lbs put up 29 reps on the bench and ran an unofficial 4.85. I have Lewan going top 10 to the Bills at 9. Lewan has the long frame the Bills covet and the frame to add even more bulk and strength.


        PFWR number one ranked OT, Jake Matthews, a bit overshadowed by Robinson and Lewan, is still putting up solid numbers. 6'-5" 308lb polished Tackle put up 24 reps and ran an unofficial 4.91 40.

          If Mack and Watkins are off the board at #9, Landing one of those tackles would be a great consolation prize.

            Watkins just ran a 4.34 on his first attempt. He won't be there at #9.

            I think I would still rather have one of the top 3 LTs rather than Mack.

              That would be a tuff call for me, Mack playing with Kiko behind that D-Line could be too hard to pass up.

                A QB and RBs behind a very good OL is a better way to go. Otherwise our D gets worn out.

                  Robinson looks like an agile version of Bob Sapp. The guy is put together.

                    I really want an OT at 9, but I'm starting to get the feeling that considering the depth of the position this year coupled with the fact we got a decent LT in the second they may be looking at pulling the trigger elsewhere and waiting a round for tackle.

                      Any way it falls, the Bills will get a very good player at #9. Unless they go Donte Whitner on us again. But Whaley doesn't seem to fit that mold.

                        Yes...They are in a very good spot given the QB's that should go ahead of them leaving more position players on the board.

                          If a guy like Lewan falls to you at pick 9 you can't just pass on him. As to me he's too good to pass up.

                            After Watkins' 40 time today, I don't know if he's falling. He'd seem a perfect fit for the Rams..I just don't know if they take a WR that high. If nothing else, the ghost of Al Davis is going to intervene.

                              Clowney only 21 reps in the bench press...

                              Brady Quinn put up 24, And a punter put up 23.

                              Is that a concern?
