- Jake Long did well this weekend but Mario and Mike ran slow 40's time. Both guys couldn't get under 4.6. I know a fast 40 is a way to climb spots in the draft, but I'm pretty sure Barry Sanders and Emmit Smith didn't have great 40's. Ever heard of Michael Irvin or Jerry Rice? Neither one of them ran a 4.3 in the 40.
Mario Manningham, WR, Michigan: Manningham was considered a vertical receiver at Michigan but that notion has been put to rest. He struggled to get below 4.6 seconds in the forty. Mike Hart, RB, Michigan: Hart looked good during the practice session, yet teams will not be able to overlook his poor forty times. Hart ran 4.65 seconds then 4.75 seconds after weighing in at 206 pounds. Jake Long, OT, Michigan: Long looked every bit the part of a top-five pick. He led all offensive linemen completing 37 repetitions of 225 pounds on the bench press, then ran his 40's in the 5.15 second range. Long went on to display outstanding footwork during the position drills and was head and shoulders above everyone else.
- Big Shocker Here. TP was at an OSU basketball game over the weekend. He's a buckeye, book it.
- Brandon Moore, soon to be Michigan Freshman is up for the Watkins Award, presented each year to an African-American high school athlete who exhibits extraordinary prowess in the classroom and on the field.
- The Falcons like Jake Long. Who doesn't?
