[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 764448, member: 12283"] For me, only a few things changed at the combine as far as #14 is concerned. Guys that fell out of consideration: [LIST] [*]Calvin Ridley: I still think he's going to be good (an Amari Cooper lite), but I'm not spending the 14th pick on a guy with those results at that size. This is especially true when you consider that the Packers have been great at finding receivers in the 2nd, and that there is good depth at the position. [*]Rashaan Evans: Given his pass rush production in college, I was interested to see if Evans might have the size to be a consideration as an edge who can also play WILL. But he came in at 232 lbs, so I think that idea is dead. [/LIST] Guys that rose into consideration: [LIST] [*]Jaire Alexander: While shorter than ideal (just over 5'10"), Alexander came in at a strong 196 lbs and tested very well nearly across the board. His tape is among the best in this class. [*]Leighton Vander Esch: He blew up the combine. 6'4" 256 lbs. For me, it comes down to whether or not he can work on the edge and generate some pass rush production. Zierlein seems to think he has that ability on tape, though it's not his forte. But he's certainly interesting. [/LIST] Aside from that, Harold Landry did what I needed him to do to solidify his status as a guy I'd take at #14. His elite testing numbers are an indication that his stellar 2016 season was closer to the real version, and that 2017 was mostly about nagging injuries. [/QUOTE]
