This guy just sounds like a Raven:

Austin is really fast.

Polian saying he is a first rounder but that he would be concerned about his size.

Also, Jarvis Jones gets some good news:

Yup. Knew Austin would really impress and shoot up the draft boards. I think he'll end up going in the top 20 of the draft.


Would love to see Jones fall but I doubt it's all the way to 32.

The thing about Austin is he is only 5'8 and 170lbs. He is limited in what you can do with him but with the way the game is heading and spreading things out more, he can be very valuable in open space, bubble screens, etc...

Jones could drop...Bowers did. Jones certainly could.

[SportsGuy]

Another top prospect that could drop?

My friend showed me that split-screen gif too. It impresses me that Te'o only went like 17 or 18 yards before Harbaugh had an opinion.

Ouch..poor 40 time for Teo.

He probably will be there for us but not sure they would take him over Minter or Ogletree.

Yeah at this point I don't want him. Not fast enough, got mauled when he played good competition, and the media will due their best to propagate the circus.

We'll 100 % stay away from Teo in the 1st. He's not a first round guy and the Ravens and Newsome-Decosta know it.

[bnickle]

This is real?? Hahahahaha. Thats funny. You can see how relatively unathletic he looks running.


I'm happy that the ND prestige has been exposed early in this case. Some stupid GM still ight overdraft him but it won't be until at least the 2nd round and the smart ones will push him down even further than that.

Yep...I would be very surprised if he was even drafted in the first round..unless he impresses at his pro day.

We should have a rule...draft SEC players.

Yea...look at article I linked. The video is on there and Mayock is talking about it.

The other rule we should have is too avoid guys named Cody.

I thought that's all "Alabama Ozzie" drafted

I wonder if Te'o could be this year's Vontaze Burfict. He went from projected to be in the late first to being undrafted after some really poor workouts and major questions about his character. I don't think Te'o slips that far, but maybe down into the late 2nd or 3rd round depending on how he looks in individual workouts. Burfict got a shot and pretty much ended up righting all of his wrongs and produced in his rookie year just like a 1st round linebacker would be expected to do.

He's gonna slide. It's a matter of how far. I would be surprised if he is a top 40 pick at this point. Again, it only takes one team but I don't see it.

[Mackus]

Heh, Peter King may have wished he had waited until after the 40s before speaking so glowingly about Te'o.

4. Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o made a very good first impression on the NFL. No way the second- or third-rated inside linebacker gets to the bottom of the round now, in the wake of the fake girlfriend story. I can't see him lasting past Cincinnati at 21. "Unbelievable kid,'' is how one interviewer for a team described him Sunday night. "Everybody in our room fell in love with him." More about him in a few moments.

Peter King just isn't very good at his job.


BTW...Cincy has been doing a much better job of evaluating and drafting in recent years, especially on the defensive side of the ball. No way they are the team who drafts him in the first round either.

[SportsGuy]

Teo was tired?
