Roger Goodell, AGE 59 ( In a suit with dress shoes ) runs a 5.41. Puts offensive tackle prospect Orlando Brown to shame as he runs a very slow 5.85

Brown, thought of a top prospect in some circles had a disastrous combine.

5.85 in the 40 yard dash. 2nd slowest of all time
only 14 reps on the bench. Probably the lowest I ever saw for an offensive tackle.
A terrible 5.38 20 yard shuttle

I really don't pay much attention to verticals for offensive lineman, but 19.5" is about as low as I've seen.

Old news. He did this after Eisen challenged him on Monday. Four days ago.

It wasn’t timed with a digital piece. It was hand timed. He was given a “generous” finish by several commenters at the combine. As for Brown, he even told clubs he would run a poor time. So this wasn’t news breaking. The bench is hard to interpret. Guys with long arms always have trouble with the bench.

If you weigh 345, you dont get the "long arms" excuse. Dude is way too weak in the upper body for someone that size, I wouldnt touch this guy in the draft
 
Is he just lazy or naturally weak.You can fix lazy. You would figure by this level he would have built up well with time and persistence.

I personally think the bench press is a horrible measuring tool for a football player. The rest of his scores are just bad.
 
I’m skeptical. I think they may have mis-measured the 120 feet or someone was quick with stopwatch. I’m 10 years younger than him and ran 4.6 forties back in the day. A couple years ago, I ran 5.5. So unless he was a track star in his youth, I think it’s BS.

Omar,

Ike doesn't understand what a good combine result is. You are right. I can't think of one starting NFL tackle that put up less on the bench, and none of them were as slow as Brown was. His agility drills were awful too.

Brown will be a human turnstile in the NFL at tackle. I would not draft him either.

Oh I understand precisely which combine results are good Coach Dimwad. And I, unlike you, don't need to plagiarize anyone else's work to know it. The combine doesn't define a player's ability to play the game. Any true football evaluator knows this first and foremost. For Brown, all it showed he was lazy in preparing for his "interview" into the NFL. Silver Spoon mentality probably got him to prepare poorly. His game tape is what the majority of teams will look at, but his poor preparation will cause clubs to question his commitment. He will be drafted, albeit much lower than he was originally projected.

You don't know jack and prove it on a monthly basis. There are some NFL minimums at positions, and some teams will take players off their draft boards if they do not hit them. So yes, the combine can define a person's ability to play in the NFL. They have them for reasons you know.

On game tapes, we'll see which if ANY NFL prospects did Brown do well against. I think speed rushers will eat him alive and he's a right tackle only type of prospect.

Brown could merely be a very good college player, but for physical limitations, not the desired NFL player.

By the way, his father was a Raven who didn't like the Steelers and sued the NFL when a flag accidentally hit him in the eye. The case was settled for 25 million dollars.

Coach....LOL....you are the one who doesn't know jack and DOCUMENTS it on this board not only monthly but daily. You need to realize that if you are going to start a pissing contest, you shouldn't piss into the wind. Oh....too late. Go measure head sizes you imbecile.

Keep up the great work, Mr. Dunning-Kruger. Slow and weak NFL tackles aren't ideal in the NFL.

As for Brown's head size, bigger than yours literally, but not figuratively is my guess.
 
Maybe if you learned to write complete sentences you could use the psychological term correctly. By all means, I have no issues with my competency or confidence knowing what I know. Maybe you need to read more on the subject yourself. It would provide you with tremendous insight as to why you are this board's resident buffoon

19.5" vertical? Wow, my dick can do half that. Was he wearing cement boots?
 
****, I'm 57 and before I had surgery on my thumbs last year I was doing my bench sets and reps at 200 lb while weighing 172 lb, so I weigh like half as much as him.
I'm back to doing sets at 185 lb. Yes I'm built like a light bulb. Pointing up.

Ben Wallace and Dwight Howard have long arms.

I remember that, but he was hit intentionally by that flag. The refs used to whip them at players who fouled. That lawsuit stopped that from happening again.

VERY correct and if you happen to have seen / Remeber the replay, THAT ref threw that flag directly, at close range, right into the helmet and player eye. LOOKED totally intentional. 25 million settlement and that was more than the dad would have made his entire NFL career.
