I think Blake Corum will be the steal of this NFL Draft

he did great on the bench press but also came in at just under 5'8" and 205 lbs and ran a 4.53 in the dash. So what does that tell us? He's not going to run a DL or LB over and he isn't going to outrun most of them either. That means few long runs to pad stats. He ran a very good shuttle time but that is to be expected for someone that short and light.

He seems to be a great kid but I just don't think he's got the physicality to be a feature RB.

He reminds me of Joe Morris from the 1986 Giants team. Small, powerful, some shiftiness, some speed. But in all, not enough to be great unless he has a great O-line. Barkley has been great or borderline great behind crap offensive lines.

Corum will be an averge back, He will not be running behind a college line that is head and shouldrs above the d-line. The top NFL running backs are also good pass catchers and blockers.

He seems very irritating to me… and I know it’s mostly because of his recent team affiliation … but I begrudgingly thought he’s a good RB …hard to tell how much of that was good OL vs himself… and not sure how he will do at the next level.

Reminds me of Hines Ward but Hines would kick that cheaters ***.

oh that's that cheating RB, I was thinking of roman the cheating WR.

Who cares, throw them in a pile and set them on fire and piss on them to put it out. They're not kids and they are all dirty.

Time to go back on your meds. We can read and hear that kind of crap from presidential candidates.

reminds me somehow of Emmit Smith or a smaller Derrik Henry.

nah more like the one year wonder from Colorado State who played for the Broncos then fizzled out in Houston named Phillip Lindsey. Corum is a great example of capturing an opportunity in the talent disparity of Meatchickens OLine and the defenses they played. Even then he became injured. The dude is moosemeat to be spit out after a 2-3 years

You really don't know anything about Blake Corum do you?
