Dani Dennis-Sutton gets the top composite score per my model.

Monroe Freeling had such a great week at the NFL Combine that he's very much in play as a Top-10 pick. And you can see why:

Cincinnati WR Jeff Caldwell had himself a week at the NFL Combine:

I've been working on some draft analysis by adjusting for height, weight, and position. Open to suggestions.

Here is Sonny Styles. Super explosive player but the agility numbers were more normal. I think that explains why edge rusher isn't being talked about more.

Jeremiyah Love running the 40 when he’s the surefire RB1 is refreshing.

And he didn’t disappoint. 4.36 is flying!

Eli Stowers jumping 45.5 inches in the vertical for a new TE record.

Let’s keep breaking records, gentlemen.

I wasn't online much traveling home from the combine but seems like we had quite a day of athletic testing.

And this LB class seems stacked.

Raiders GM John Spytek says they take public draft boards and put them into a system to figure out ranges for prospects.

Ahead of the NFL Combine this week…check out the Consensus Big Board:

Absolutely awful news. Rondale Moore has given football fans one of the best memories by torching Ohio State.

What an awesome player. RIP

It’s fitting that Mackinnon scores the game-winner after he sold the penalty because the ref wasn’t calling the high stick.

USAAAAAAAA

Sudden death OT in hockey is painful enough already but now we have 3 on 3 to add a few more seconds of holding your breath.

Remember to breathe, folks.

3 on 3 OT for gold. I don’t know if there are OT challenges anymore but going with…

Oh, Canada.

I’ll be in Indianapolis for the Combine next week. If you’re around and want to meet up, DMs are open!

As for the other big name move by the Dolphins today, Bradley Chubb's play really fell off this year. My projections had him playing towards a $15 million per year at the end of the season.

He was slated to have a ~$31 million cap hit the next two seasons.

You could be right. I just think we will get closer to $20m APY. Incentives could still happen at the number.

This seems about right.

I'm not entirely sure but that APY seems low, I think.

I don't have the GPS data on him but there has been a dip in his performance the last two years. Evaluating why that happened and how quickly you think he can bounce back from injury is a lot of projection.

I'm interested to see what kind of market there is for Tyreek Hill.

It felt hard to evaluate him with the type of quarterback play he was getting. Add in that he's 32 and coming off a major injury and valuing him is tough.

How much do you think he's worth?

2026 NFL Draft consensus rankings: Fernando Mendoza clear QB1; four Buckeyes in top 10 Fernando Mendoza is all but a lock to be QB1 in this year's draft, but who's going to claim the QB2 spot?

It might be the offseason but the NFL Draft will be here in no time. I compiled the Consensus Big Board a few weeks ago to get primed for draft season.

Which prospect is underrated in this class?

The Seahawks finished at the top of my model’s rankings by a full point over the Rams.

Those two are clear the next best tier of teams by two full points.

The Super Bowl was the NFC Championship game.

In Maye's defense, the offensive line had no clue how to block Mike Macdonald's pressure packages. You can't expect a young QB to find success behind an overmatched OL if you're consistently in third and pass.

That's ultimately what won the game for Seattle.
