It was on ESPN yesterday, I just typed up some of the results for those of you who missed it.Croyle threw the longest football nailing a 68 yard pass, Vince Young threw the first 2 out of bounds and hit a 64 on the third one by inches, Charlie Whitehurst and Drew Olsen both only got 62 yarders. (Vince Young couldnt hit the backside of a barn throwing the ball way out of bounds the first 2 times and the third one he barely nailed it in bounds by a matter of inches the third time.)On the Reciever drills, Chad Jackson stole the show with great hands and reflexes, DeAngelo Williams looked lost and Sinorice Moss and Vernon Davis were both decent.On the scrambling course, Croyle fumbled and looked awful, him, Whitehurst, and Olsen missed both of the targets on the run and Vince Young stole the show in the one event it would have been a major upset had he not won.And on the kicking ones....well, who cares, its kickers.
LoL about the kickers. But that looks solid. Williams just stuck his hands out there and turned around. He looked like he wasn't even trying, that will hurt his stock if he can't catch out of the backfield. And one last thing, Chad Jackson was balling out there.
Yeah I was very impressed with Chad Jackson. He after this challenge and maybe even after the combine could be the number one WR taken in the draft.
I was watching it at first but then turned it off. I was impressed with the wideout Jackson from Florida. Alot of mock drafts have him going to Pittsburgh, I wouldn't mind having him on our team.

Holmes is definalty the # 1 WR in this draft class, no doubt. He has everything, faster then Jackson, better hands, better route running, and more consistent.

The guy is a great receiver for a RB. Looks like LT catching the ball. Just because of one bad event that means very little that probably not even one tenth of the NFL Scouts watched is going ot hurt him. The only reason to watch the Memphis Tigers the last 4 seasons was DeAngelo Williams, running and receivng. He lined up at slot WR at times as well.
Hell yeah,2 Memphis players are getting drafted this year for sure.Deangelo and Steven Gotskowski (sp?).Gotskowski is better than half the kickers in the NFL this year and lets face it.Deangelo=Next Ladainian Tomlinson.

I think Deangelo will do well in the NFL but saying he will be the next LT is just crazy.
