Darryl Stonum is now a Kansas City Chief |
Former Michigan defensive tackle commit DeQuinta Jones measured in at 6'4", 306 lbs. at the Arkansas pro day. He proceeded to run a 5.4 forty and do 19 reps on the bench press, which got him signed by the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent.
Former Michigan running back Sam McGuffie tested at the regional combine prior to the NFL Draft with a 4.28 forty, a 41.5" vertical, 11.2" broad jump, a 3.8 shuttle, and 26 reps on the bench press. He had been playing running back and wide receiver for the past few years at Rice, and on Saturday night, he signed with the Oakland Raiders as an undrafted free agent.
Former Michigan offensive tackle Dann O'Neill measured in at 6'7", 326 lbs., did 26 reps on the bench, and ran a 5.41 forty at his pro day. He had been playing right tackle for Western Michigan for the past few seasons. O'Neill signed with the Houston Texans on Saturday night as an undrafted free agent.
Former Michigan wide receiver Darryl Stonum measured in at 6'1", 205 lbs., did 16 reps on the bench, ran a 4.57 forty, broad jumped 10'3", had a 4.64 shuttle, and had a 36.5" vertical. Stonum played sparingly for Baylor in 2012. On Saturday night he signed with the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted free agent.
Sam McGuffie is an incredible athlete. I hope he's able to keep out of harm's way.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot your favorite player, Michael Cox! Drafted by the Giants in the 7th round.
ReplyDeleteCox cam back and trained extensively with Mike Barwis which is a nice piece to this. Very happy for him and hope he has a good run. Certainly a nice match with the Giants for him.
DeleteIs McGuffie's number of 4.28 for the 40 correct? That's got to be one of the better -- if not the best -- times in the combine. The best numbers I've seen are in the 4.35 to 4.4 range.
ReplyDeleteMcGuffie should've played WR or DB. Probably WR
ReplyDeleteDarryl Stonum provides some insight into two conversations that have been going on around here lately.
ReplyDeleteComing out of high school he was a top 20 national four star recruit from Texas at Wide Receiver who was advertised as having 4.4 speed and an offer list that included both florida and USC.
Flash forward five short years and he's an undrafted free agent with an electronic 4.57 40 and struggled to get on the field his senior year at Baylor.
Oopsies!
Who ya gonna trust, your own eyes and video or Rivals/Scout/24-7/ESPN none of whom have much in the way of real hard measurables and no character analysis.
Going along with the character analysis thing, I think Stonum probably could have run faster than a 4.57. I get the impression that he didn't have the best training regimen or concentrate on football as much as he should have, considering all the legal issues he had.
DeleteJones did less and damn oneill did as many bench presses as McGuffey? Is this the same amount?
