From our NFL Combine coverage: The #Commanders made a strong offer for Russell Wilson. A look at what it means... pic.twitter.com/e7qabCQosA

We also know they will pursue every QB they think MIGHT be available. As they should. Not many truly will be. As we have known for a while they want to “swing big”. This will be a difficult search.

With all eyes on #Packers QB Aaron Rodgers and his future, here is the latest: Sources say Rodgers is truly torn on where he wants to play in 2022. While many in the NFL expect him to return — there's lots of positivity in Green Bay — he is going back and forth on what he wants.

— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 5, 2022

All AFC teams, of course. Because why would the Packers trade Rodgers to a team they could face in the NFC playoffs? https://t.co/8oTJOdpxCq

Since the Rivera regime arrived in 2020; They have…. traded for Kyle Allen, signed Taylor Heinicke, attempted to trade for Stafford/Wilson, signed Fitzpatrick, and reportedly even called the Chiefs about Mahomes. This isn’t a group looking to draft and develop.

In non-QB news, former Wyoming LB Chad Muma had an interview with the Commanders on Thursday.

“It was cool to be in that room and being able to meet everyone that’s in their program,” he said.

The NFL just released the official 40 times for Baylor WR Tyquan Thornton and Ohio State WR Chris Olave… and the unofficial times were way off.

Thornton: 4.28 (not 4.21)
Olave: 4.39 (not 4.26)

— Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) March 4, 2022

Charley Casserly is no longer doing the hand times for NFL Network

It's Marc Ross' first year

We could see larger discrepancies in the "unofficial" to "official" times compared to previous years

Like TE Greg Dulcich dropping from a 4.61u to a 4.70o

...or we might not

Ohio State’s Garrett Wilson (4.38) and Chris Olave (4.39) became the 2nd pair of WR teammates since 2006 to run sub-4.4 40 times at the same combine.

The only other duo? Terry McLaurin and Parris Campbell. pic.twitter.com/ugglFDDDkI

This is bonkers.

Number of WRs with a sub-7.00 second 3-cone:

2022: 2
2020: 4
2019: 8
2018: 18
2017: 23

— Dane Brugler (@dpbrugler) March 4, 2022

Your team should target every OL prospect that runs a sub-4.47 short shuttle

Over the last 10 years, only 24 players have hit that time at the Combine

They combined to start 84% of their career games, including gems like Kelce, Paradis & Leno

Post #NFLCombine #NFLDraft QB ranks:
1) Pickett-solid B+ across the board
2) Willis-big upside (floor?)
3) Ridder-size worrisome, interviewed well
4) Howell-+athletic profile, didn’t interview well
5) Corral-too small for play style
6) Strong-next big-arm QB to be a career backup

Because there are FAR more players in any given draft than there are players who even make it into the NFL, we tend to instead ask how many successful players tested above/below average.

Just looking at pro bowlers, since 1987 650 pro bowlers scored above average, 115 below. https://t.co/Q5IjOtGSoy

Contracts offer different opportunities/challenges, but the idea that Dallas is upset with Amari Cooper relative to his money while Zeke's out there just swimming in his money mountain is hilarious.

— Sam Monson (@PFF_Sam) March 4, 2022

The Cowboys have not given Amari Cooper and his reps permission to seek a trade.
