Time for Byron Murphy to make some money this afternoon!

Update on T'Vondre Sweat from Ian Rapoport.

[Stonedhornfan]

I think sweat has the most to gain out of our combine invitees. Hes going to test really well at that weight

It will be interesting, I dont think scouts will be overjoyed about his weight.

Agree 100%. Word coming out of the Senior Bowl was they wanted his weight down. The concern (according to one person with knowledge on this) is what will he be like with multi-millions

I think he is first round talent, but he has to overcome the "does he love football" questions.

Well looks like Sweat didn't cut down any...I remember yesterday someone had mentioned if he had cut some weight to about (350-355LB) would help him out. But will see. Super stoked about todays thread. Hook'em!!

Can anybody enlighten me on what a good/great 10-yard split time is for a DL?

You will see anything in the 1.6's as a good time. For Sweat, anything below 1.75 would be a plus. Murphy will probably see a 1.65 time.

Good wingspan measurement for Murphy at his height... those broad shoulders made up for little lack of arm length

@Gerry Hamilton thoughts on Keilan Robinson’s chances to run the fastest 40 time among RB’s?
