McGuire Cashes In On Shrine Game Appearance

[basinbear]

Macguire pushed off his back foot to start on his 2nd run

[Rougarou]

He ain't on par with them two. He may be as fast, but he ain't on the same level.

The context was regarding the 40 time.

[cajunhawk]

He's the best RB we've ever had, but those two are on a different level.

I disagree. We are about 5 months from the proof being in the pudding though.

[cajunhawk]

Hawk takes much joy in ribbing the Saints. Pay him no mind in that regard.

So the Saints are a playoff team? That's not a rib...it's reality.

[cajunhawk]

He's a real crumb bum

After hearing that I want a Diablo Sandwich and a Dr. Pepper.

An unquenchable thirst.

Final official time was 4.53. 12th fastest of the RB's

36" vertical jump is 6th best of RB's (7.5" higher than Fournette)
120" broad jump is 12th best of RB's

All in all, very solid numbers. Still havent posted the cone and shuttle drills which I think he will do well at

[cajunhawk]

An unquenchable thirst.

Vicodin does cause cotton mouth...when abused.

[BrockMeaux]

He's going to shine in route running and catching drills.

[cajun_lannister]

he will be drafted in rounds 4 or 5

[basinbear]

I thought overall he had a good day....I had a good friend at the combine....he really liked him a lot in the pass drills....

[CrappDaddy]

He ain't on par with them two. He may be as fast, but he ain't on the same level.

You may be right about cook but I think he will have a better NFL career than Fournette. I know it's a bold statement but a lot of people don't realize how good this kid really is.

[GoneGolfin]

This McCaffrey kid has Patriots written all over him.

He will not last that long. Decent chance the Broncos take him if he is available at 20.

Well I am pretty sure he is a better receiver and think his cutting skills with the ball are superior to Fournette!!

[charliek]

With that busted foot he still outran his ____ poor coaching and god awful offensive line. Dude is a steal of a deal for anyone. I would love for Seattle to pick him and use him properly...but that's just putting him into another coaching & offensive line problem.

You think if Eli was there they would have run it instead of throwing that telegraphed pass for the loss?

[axg8750]

Yesterday On Houston sports talk radio a guy was talking about how Fournette showed up over weight. He was questioning his dedication. When they asked him who his favorite football player is his reply was that he wasn't a real big football fan growing up.

I don't look at Eli and Leonard as being on different "levels". I see one fitting a role and a team better than the other in the NFL. They aren't comparable in many regards, because they differ widely in RB ball skills. I'd take a healthy footed Eli in open space on the end of a toss every day of the week. But obviously, Leonard is one of the best specimens of NFL RB for the traditional role of NFL RB that we've seen in many years.

[GoneGolfin]

Lost a tenth on his 2nd run. McCaffrey did the same thing right before.

Yes ... McCaffrey officially ran a 4.48 on his first run ... tied for 4th among the RBs. 4.59 on his second run.

But he also posted the second best all-time 3-cone drill time (of 286 RBs) of 6.57.

I couldn't find the 3 cone results. Where did you see them?

[GoneGolfin]

I did not see the overall results ... just some articles reporting on McCaffrey's results in the drill. The NFL site has not yet updated the 3-cone drill results for the RBs.

McCaffrey is also the leader in the 60 yard shuttle (11.03).
