nicely done, but your thinking to much into it, look simple we need a ilb MORE than a OLB, need a cb more than a saftey, need a wr more than a te, need a dt more than a tackle and need a guard/center more than a de. which is why you say lauinitous because he will drop that far, nicks again should drop to 44, and sean smith will be there at 56. genious. i since a possible pat white in 4th or 5th

yeah this Simon guy used to post on all of the Fins message boards. He LIVES in England and he just steals his info from other people who are at the combine and workouts......... ya know Americans who made it there first hand to witness this stuff. Then he passes their insights off as his own. And he types up a lot and makes it very "wordy" to try and hide it.

i mean all he did was mention every position and every top player at that spot as a "possiblity". Real insight there.

He also totally missed that Miami had Henne throwing to Brian Robiskie, too.

And he mentions Jairus Byrd as a wildcard CB in round 1. Byrd ran a 4.65 40 at his private workout, after not running at the combine or his pro day. No way does he figure into the first round.

Robiskie just isnt that important, though. Thats why he didnt list him.


I believe this is the same guy I got my quote from.

Bottom line: The length was not worth the few pieces of insight. Agree with comments above.

More of dump than an article with added value.

i mean anyone can list every position as a "possible need" then list the top player at each position as a "possible target".

Like I said.......its impossible for someone who lives in ENGLAND to know what is going on here in America when it comes to the combine and the numerous private workouts. He steals his info from others and then just types "wordy" columns to try and hide it.

The guy is esentially a fraud!! And the fact that the Sun-Sentinel gave him a platform is just another reason why newspapers around this country are going out of business!!!!!

We have now outsourced draft-ink jobs! lol......Only in America

Can you repost the link please?

TY

These writeups have been awful. Parts 2 and 3 were worse than Part 1. How can a guy from England do scouting on guys from the University of Liberty or the MAC? Oh wait, tell me about the greatness of Larry English from No. Illinois!! Cause I am sure the BBC carries so many No.Illonis games.

Andre Smith could crash his car into Simon in front of Big Ben during rush hour and Simon wouldn't know who Andre Smith is!! Yet he is gonna "break down his game" (probably never seeing Alabama play once all year) and project his NFL and draft future????

Boy the Sun-Sentinel has really dropped a few levels this past week with this garbage they have put up. I have even less sympathy now for the newspaper business in this country after they have started printing stuff like this.

his suspect qualifications for being able to speak intelligently about draft prospects and the Dolphins aside, the fact that he thinks Larry English is going to be a stud shouldn't necessarily mean the opposite is true just because the guy claiming it may not be credible. Simon may be a fraud, but I do like English a whole lot and I hope we draft him at 25.

come on guys, just b/c he is from england doesn't mean it is impossible for him to know what he is talking about. you think in this age of internet and satellite TV he can't study up on players as well as any moron from Bismark, ND? He seems to know what he is talking about, more than anyone else I've read, except maybe omar.
