2023 NFL Draft

So there is Anthony Johnson Jr. DB-ISU, Anthony Johnson DB-UVA, and Antonio Johnson DB-TAMU. That's not confusing at all.
I think he just got himself drafted, with a 4.54 40 and 37.5” vertical.
I didn’t even know broad jump was a combine thing but his was at least high among safeties when I looked (not sure if they were done)
It's noteworthy how much smaller NFL linebackers have become. Looking through the combine measurements most fall in the 220-235lb range. Very few 240+. Safeties seem smaller too with most between 5'-11" to 6'-1" and 190-205lbs. Makes sense given how the game is played, just an observations.
Seems like it's been emphasizes more lately. Scouts like it as a test for a player's athleticism and explosiveness.
Great college player. But a huge risk at No. 1 at QB in the NFL, where he won't always be lining up with the best player at every position along side himself. I'd be real nervous giving up the store to get him myself.
Can we start referring to Alabama QBs as system QBs like Texas Tech and Oklahoma now?
I wouldn't draft Young until the 3rd round. In fact, I am not that impressed with any of the QBs this year.
I honestly think Purdy is better than any of them.

Rose got too big for college even, it negatively affected his play his senior year
Agree.... he got quite a bit slower it seemed.
Jack Campbell is 6'5" and 249 lbs... but he ran a 4.65 I believe.... so he might be okay. Not sure what Rose ran in the combine?
Xavier Hutchinson ran a 4.53 (unofficial) on his 1st 40 run
