Its more

Size concerns for him. He was plenty fast at Ohio State.

Good nickel corner. I have him higher than most.

I was thinking

Maybe if he ran slower he might slip to 16

Harris was unofficially around 4.43 I think. Smith is in group 2.

by VTjagfan on Mar 1, 2011 9:35 AM EST up reply actions  

But he was never a center fielder at FL

like Reggie Nelson was.

Ahmad has never been claimed to be a 4.5 guy. He is rather a well coached and instinctive player who took good angles and tackled well. 4.7 for a SS isn’t awful. It’s slow for a FS, but Ahmad never played way back when we went to the Cover 1.

INTANGABLES! He’s a winner! He stayed and got a degree! blah blah blah. But really, kid won multiple HS state championships, played and started for two BCS Championships, senior, leader, lunch pail guy. I don’t imagine him being too high on our lists, but I wouldn’t be angry if the Jags picked him up in the later rounds.

He's one of the few Florida players I really like

I think he’ll be a productive pro. Won’t set the world on fire but he’s a worker.

by Joe Fisher on Mar 1, 2011 3:58 PM EST up reply actions  

The speed is a question

But the production is there, his buddy will hill ran terrible to

by amujic32 on Mar 1, 2011 9:38 AM EST via mobile reply actions  

Hill peaked in HS

apart from 3 games, he’s never done anything of note in Gainesville. Every year the headlines were, “Hill ready for breakout season” and each year it never seemed to come to fruition.

Punters are awful, awful people.

They should remove all kicking from football. No punting, no FGs. You must go for it on 4th all the time, and you must only score TDs – and you may kick a PAT – but a regular position player must kick it.

by JPQ! on Mar 1, 2011 10:11 AM EST up reply actions  

and Ray Guy.

The good news is, you would have fewer idiot kickers almost cutting their legs off with axes that idiot coaches leave in locker rooms.

by JPQ! on Mar 1, 2011 10:14 AM EST up reply actions  

Ras-I is intriguing.

Don’t know if he’s worth a crap but we love our hyphens.

by Joe Fisher on Mar 1, 2011 9:58 AM EST reply actions  

+1

especially if we lose MS-W…we don’t want to go down a hyphen!

by JPQ! on Mar 1, 2011 10:07 AM EST up reply actions  

I mean the equipment guys have a run on hyphens

It’s a bitch cutting the "I"s in half. Tears the fabric

by Joe Fisher on Mar 1, 2011 10:12 AM EST up reply actions  

Before last year

There was talk of home being a late 1st early 2nd but injuries this year killed all likely hood of that happening, I’m saying he goes late 2nd maybe 3rd

by amujic32 on Mar 1, 2011 10:24 AM EST via mobile up reply actions  

Quinton Carter is really good...

any chance he’s there for our 2nd rd pick? If so, I want that guy playing S(FS or SS) for us next year.

by JPQ! on Mar 1, 2011 10:07 AM EST reply actions  

You guys are really over valuing this safety class. It’s bad.

by Alfie Crow on Mar 1, 2011 10:19 AM EST up reply actions   1 recs

Isnt the safety and corner

The weakest class this year?

by amujic32 on Mar 1, 2011 10:23 AM EST via mobile up reply actions  

Corner is extremely deep

The safety class is pretty awful.

by Bestjagfan on Mar 1, 2011 4:12 PM EST up reply actions  

I think that some of the corners have FS written all over them.

We could do what we did to Rasheen draft a CB put him in FS and in year two he can play CB.

by Jewasaurus on Mar 1, 2011 5:18 PM EST up reply actions  

II only saw Carter play once or twice -

is he not as good as I thought? I just read about him and assumed he would be an upgrade.

by JPQ! on Mar 1, 2011 10:23 AM EST up reply actions  

Well, you have to remember: An upgrade to the Jaguars safeties isn’t much.

by Alfie Crow on Mar 1, 2011 10:28 AM EST up reply actions  

True.

But Carter looks like a linebacker and runs like a safety.

by packerman on Mar 1, 2011 12:23 PM EST up reply actions  

Curtis Brown from Texas

looks good in these drills. For what its worth, Prime seems to love him.

by JPQ! on Mar 1, 2011 10:28 AM EST reply actions  

Prime also just said Brandon Harris

has been the most impressive today, in his opinion.

by JPQ! on Mar 1, 2011 10:50 AM EST up reply actions  

I've been

pimpin that guy since I’ve started talking about this years draft.

by Ewdtrey on Mar 1, 2011 8:26 PM EST up reply actions  

Hahahahaha!!!

Mayock, Eisen, and Prime were just laughing at Will Hill for having 3 kids while in college.

He must be trying to beat Cromartie.

by JPQ! on Mar 1, 2011 11:30 AM EST reply actions  

Thank you for that.

I haven’t laughed that hard in awhile. Priceless!!!

by JPQ! on Mar 1, 2011 12:57 PM EST up reply actions  

trade up for

prince ! 4.37 thats blazing
haha

by Dawool Huh on Mar 1, 2011 12:00 PM EST reply actions  

Ras-I Dowling in Rd 2?

He seems to be really impressing people and he ran a nice 40.

by Brian Levenson on Mar 1, 2011 12:16 PM EST reply actions  

Yeah

But its hard to judge him becuase he missed majority of 2010 because of injuries so you’d havw to look at his 09 season , like I said before, before he got injured there were talks of him being a late 1st, mid 2nd

by amujic32 on Mar 1, 2011 12:29 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

I'm in

10th grade and I run a 4.7. I’m surprised these safeties aren’t faster than that.

by Bestjagfan on Mar 1, 2011 4:17 PM EST up reply actions  

For real.

In high school I was 5-10, 175 and ran a 4.7 40. Hell I should enter the draft.

by Brian Levenson on Mar 1, 2011 4:18 PM EST up reply actions  

i agree big time with Dawool Huh

Trading up to get Prince would make alot more sense than trading up for Alualu like we did. His value is way to get to let slip out of our hands. If we can trade up to maybe the cowboys or someone in front of the Texans then i say we do it. He is a player well worth losing a draft pick

by LoyalJagfromTX on Mar 1, 2011 2:21 PM EST reply actions  

That wouldn't be a good move

He is going to be a really good player but the Jags need to trust their board and get the best players they can, maybe even trade back for more picks. and we didn’t trade up for Alualu.

by Sylvester.The.Jaguar.fan on Mar 1, 2011 2:39 PM EST up reply actions  

agreed

let me add that the jaguars are not at the stage where they can throw away bringing in multiple guys so that they can sure up a position better than they could otherwise. I love Amukamara as much as anyone, but I see him going to SF at the latest.

by Jagsrok9008 on Mar 1, 2011 7:57 PM EST up reply actions  

UT Chattanooga

Anyone have any info on the kid that burned up the 40? im sure GM-G has some info on him. Being from a small school and all.

by chrisltr22c on Mar 1, 2011 3:33 PM EST reply actions  

Buster Skrine

5’10, 185. He was all-conference for two years and put up good stats. He was playing in a bum division and has good numbers, but he got his hands on 36 balls (31 “passes defended”) and came away with only 5 picks. That would raise some questions about his hands. He does have great straight line speed, and is not afraid to make plays in the running game. My guess would be a 4th or 5th round prospect. Now that people have seen his speed, he might move up, but he’s probably a returner more than a viable option at corner.

by Brian Levenson on Mar 1, 2011 4:30 PM EST up reply actions  

Wait... NFL.com lied.

It was apparently Demarcus Van Dyke that ran the 4.28. Ignore my previous post.
That’s weird because NFL.com said it was Skrine. Skrine ended up running a 4.48 officially.

by Brian Levenson on Mar 1, 2011 4:40 PM EST up reply actions  

lol..

ok so how about some info on the guy it actually was!

by chrisltr22c on Mar 1, 2011 5:10 PM EST up reply actions  

if a guy can cover

I’m fine with him knocking balls down, and not giving up the big plays, deflected passes, are way better then completions.

Exactly

I think a lot people don’t realize that corners that make a lot of picks usually give up a lot of big plays because they are jumping routes, taking to many risks, and not being discipline.

by Sylvester.The.Jaguar.fan on Mar 2, 2011 11:04 AM EST up reply actions  

no I watched the tape on nfl.com

it wa def Buster think the article is a huge mistake.

by ctjags on Mar 1, 2011 5:09 PM EST reply actions  

Yeah... this is weird.

NFL.com doesn’t mention anything about Buster Skrine’s time. Apparently, the official time came out to 4.48 according to the NFL, but WalterFootball and a few more places have him down as a 4.29. I guess someone was a little late starting the watch.

by Brian Levenson on Mar 1, 2011 5:51 PM EST up reply actions  

Yeah the

4.29 was an unofficial time.

by Ewdtrey on Mar 1, 2011 11:51 PM EST up reply actions  

I mean on nfl network i recorded it.

by ctjags on Mar 1, 2011 5:09 PM EST reply actions  

ohhh

i meant derrick harvey my bad

by LoyalJagfromTX on Mar 1, 2011 6:33 PM EST reply actions  

What did

Patrick Peterson run?

Thanks

Didn’t see him on your update
