I think David Bell will be a decent player. He tested terribly, but he has good football skills. He's not going to be a star or anything, but he'll make some plays that some other guys won't.

40s are great, but not only is football not all about speed, there's a big difference between a 40 yard dash and functional play speed. Plus, there are a ton of other x-factors to succeeding at WR.

Don't forget that Cooper Kupp ran a 4.6.

David Bell ran an official 4.64, 0.01 away from dead last. 

His agility drills were bad too. He went from a potential X to what looks like a big slot. 

Yea this combine just really hurt his draft stock. Probably going to be a day 3 guy

Kupp is a slot WR who was 80th percentile in agility drills. They’re not asking him to line out wide and win. He gets a lot of two-way go’s and absolutely shreds in that role. 

Bell had a lot of questions about his athletic ability. Unfortunately he answered those questions.

Good points.

 

They need to fix this in time for the DBs, this kind of disparity in times is no good.

Trade up

People will complain that he’s a running QB

I can bear with a running QB who at least has an arm.

Screw it. Forget defense. Get Malik Willis & Treylon Burks, call it a day

The kid's ability is for real, there's raw materials for something big.

Hell of a throw. 

In that same amount of time Hurts would have crow hopped a bunch, rolled right and threw to the sideline.

You can probably get him in rd 4 and back

That's excellent. 

If he becomes a slot because of this,  he will be incredible. Him and Phillips are going to be like 2 more renfrows

I'm still loving Pickens. Workout solidified that he should still be talked about at WR1 in this draft.

I bet Pickett is taking the below into every interview

In an 8-inch Hand Big?

According to the Guinness World Record, the largest hands in the world were 12.75 inches. However, the average hand size is not that large. The average hand size of a male is 7.6 inches, and in the case of a female, it is 6.8 inches. There are also have some rare people who have 10 to 11 inches hands in the world. Some famous football players like Jim Druckenmiller, Dak Prescott, Cody Kessler, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning have 10 to 11.25 inches hands. So, considering all these things, an 8 inches hand is average, not big. Some head coaches say that if you want to be a good quarterback, you should have at least 10 inches hands which are really rare and at the time big enough.

Mine are 8.25 inches and I'm only 5'8". So no

I have to watch more Jalen Nailor  and Kevin Austin 

TEs and QBs are what I thought they were

Don't misconstrue what I said, if that's what's throwing you off.  I said I could see why a team would do it, including the Eagles.  He's almost like this year's Trey Lance.  I understood him in Round 1 as well, but not #3.  Though, the classic line for me is if you truly believe in a QB prospect, then there's no such thing as 'too high' for drafting them.  If you are right, he's worth the cost.  If not, you are pretty much screwed anyway.

Yeah, I'm coming around on Willis as well. Good kid, extremely talented. He needs development, but that's what coaching is for.

Are we getting desperate for quarterbacks?

Some are.  

I'd like to think that Lowie is smarter than that.  Of course, I'd feel better if Minshew were starting as they might be more capable of running the offense Sirianni brought with him, rather than what he ended up with by the end.

For reference, DK Metcalf was 7.38.

I would have been good with him in round 2 provided he didn’t bomb the combine. Can’t do it now.
