This is the second year the combine is having live coverage. It starts at 2 pm so I will take some notes and make a post later on.
I can't wait for this, this whole draft "year" is going by fast. I'll post some people's peformance. I'm so multitalented I can look at a great guy like Jay Culter to a guy like Marques Colston . Ha.

i got it on DVR as well. I cant wait to watch it, it could be the most boring thing ever recorded but for some reason I will still be hyped.
Looks like there is no running or anything today just interviews. Here is what I got, didn't bother checking out Bush. We all know and love Bush. D'Brickashaw Ferguson - OT - Virginia : 6-6 312(Love New York, wouldn't mind going there. Love the Knicks. Great job answering questions, liked him. Won't do anything in Indy, he'll run the 40 and do everything else at his pro day)Winston Justice - OT - USC : 6-6 ----(Didn't give any details about if he's running or not. Stuttered a lot while speaking, seemed nervous. Sounds like he is trying to clean his plate, and making people forget about his suspension. Wierd fact, he was a former boxer and he said it helped him with football a lot.)Maurice Drew - RB - UCLA: 5-6 (1/2) 207(Sounded very confident, saying he can do everything and that he is a power back. He's going to do all the event in Indy, and we'll see him run the 40 yard dash, Saturday at 11:00 am.)that's all they showed. I'll update later.
Yeah they just had the offensive linemen and running backs address the the media and they also did their bench reps but they didn't sho any reports of what people did.
Today's combine is about to start. Did anyone happen to see the "Bod Pod"? Its a white chamber that players sit in to measure body fat. It looked pretty funny.
Ya but on Saturday is when it really begins, the 40 (ect). Some news no one wants to hear but the Patriots are very very interested in WR Jason Avant.
Here are some notable 40 times.Maurice Drew - RB - UCLA (4.41)Joseph Addai - RB - LSU (4.37)Eric Winston - OT - Miami FL (4.98)
Drew seems to be looking pretty good achuly. Might not be a bad minnesota pick if Maroney isnt around.What did Lomo run Ricky?
^ He's not working out due to hamstring injuries. But he interviewed with the Vikes, Rams, and Colts.I heard somewhere else that Maurice Drew officially clocked in at 4.39"Maurice Drew - RB - UCLA Did 18 repititions of 225 lbs on the bench press and clocked the fastest 40 of the day, officially clocking a 4.39." draftshowcase.comOfficial 40 timesMaurice Drew - 4.37Joseph Addai - 4.40Andre Hall - 4.42Wali Lundy - 4.45Jerome Harrison - 4.47Chris Chester - 4.88Eric Winston - 4.94Guy Whimper - 4.95Pat Ross - 4.96Daryn Colledge - 5.04Nick Mangold - 5.05Paul McQuistan - 5.07Marcus McNeill - 5.07Michael Toudouze - 5.10Joe Toledo - 5.11draftshowcase.comMaurice Drew – RB – UCLA Measured in at 5'6 ?, 201. He will do all workouts here. Teams who have shown interest in Drew include the Colts, Pats, Jags, Raiders, Seahawks, Browns, Bengals and Steelers who may be looking at Drew as a punt returner should Antwaan Randle-El leave via free agency.^ if randle el leaves, i would LOVE to have Drew. He's my favorite player from my favorite team.I heard that Mario Williams interviewed with the Texans... which means there is a chance they could end up trading down for him.
Nick Mangold was EXTREMLEY impressive, I wouldn't be suprised if the Broncos grabbed him with their later 1st to become Tom Nalens eventual sucessor.

The Pats have shown interest in Jason Avant, Joseph Addai and Richard Marshall.
^ there's a bunch of people using the stop watches, so there's bound to be different times for each run.
Oh ya good point. I'm looking forward to Sunday (11:00 am) really want to see the wideouts run. Hoping Avant can run a 4.5
