I figured it was something like that. I meant to watch those shows throughout the week. Every afternoon when I got home from work, I would forget it. Getting old ain't for sissies, boys.
Mayock may be a good analyst and evaluator, but he was annoying to me doing the game. While he was right dogging Harrell's arm, there were 3 times when he was so wrong it was agitating. I would have to go back to the game to get all the names correct, but here is were the crappy commentary came from. First, there was a run to the outside where Cushing was pursuing. He engaged the pulling OL and knocked him backwards. The rb cut to the inside and Mayock criticized Cushing for overrunning the play. I guess he expected Cushing to somehow overcome a lineman who probably had 40 to 50 pounds on him (and a good blocking angle) and make the tackle on a running back in space. Most good running backs can make a move to get around a linebacker one on one. Davis tried to diffuse the comment by saying something like " well, the good thing is, he spilled the play back inside". I thought it was a great play by Cushing, but I guess he could have grabbed the lineman and thrown him over his head and made the tackle himself.  On a kickoff return, the returner worked himself towards the far sideline, and when a crease developed, Mayock shouts, "Explode! Right now!" The guy was already going pretty full out at that point, and was able to accelerate slightly through the crease and got the most out of the opportunity. The only way that a guy could have "exploded" at that point was if he had a jet pack on his back. On another play where the running back got stuffed by the interior dl, Mayock said the center (I think it was Unger, but not sure) and right guard ( Levitre) got blown up. They showed a replay and clearly, Levitre took his man completely out of the play to the right. Mayock should have corrected himself at that point, but didn't.

I also thought that Brian Robiskie clearly looks like the best WR in the draft after Crabtree. He posted a 4.50 fourt yard dash which I think solidifies him as an near elite WR prospect. If he slides into the second round, someone is getting a major steal!

My question is if I took him in the 5th, where I also see John Parker Wilson going, do I go with Wilson based on the bigger game experience. McGee looked really good at the Shrine game. Wilson looked good at the senior bowl. I see McGee with more upside than Brink.

Question: (1) DE Aaron Maybin seems kinda light in the butt for a 4-3 DE in the NFL? No question about his first step though. (2) CB/S Dominique (another one) Johnson is very intriguing, but he is supposedly a hothead and likes to talk back to his coaches?

I think he would be fine at DE, run stopping is not his forte but I think he is quick enough to disrupt. Its just a tradeoff, would you prefer Tyson Jackson, an absolute brick wall in the running game or Maybin whose quickness can get pressure and disrupt run plays?
I like Maybin, personally.
