The Combine basically got Jamie Harper drafted last year after a very unimpressive college career.

I’m gonna laugh when the steelers draft this kid, and benroethlisberger7 completely changes his tune.

With such an “impressive blend of size, strength and speed” this explains why he ripped off a whopping 62 total yards rushing against the mighty Warhawks of UL-Monroe.

If a back that size and that speed is sitting around in the third round, you kind of have to get him into camp unless you are 100% sure you have a starter and depth.

anyone remember Chris Williams from Arizona? 2nd round pick in 2007 for the Titans after running a 4.4 flat at 5’11 236?

no one remembers him?

You have to wonder if returning from a major knee injury played a part in his disappointing season, and he is now getting healthy again and showing his true ability. On top of that, Arkansas was a hot mess last season with everything going on. He was a very good player before he was injured, and if he is returning to that form now some team will be able to draft a nice asset.

Tyler Wilson did such a good job in 2009; when he played LSU and got punched in the mouth over and over, he’d would pop right back up and give it his all. Tough as nails. Knile Davis looked like a super star in 2008. I think their heads have been screwed with due to injuries and drama, and if both can get back to good coaching in a good environment, they have the tools to succeed.

Same situation as Tyler Wilson. Both screwed by Petrino’s antics. Both better than they showed this past year. I expect Wilson and Davis will play better than expected when the season starts. As a Bucs fan, if the Bucs draft Tyler Wilson in the third round to push Freeman I couldn’t be happier.

This guys is intriguing…

I literally have no idea what to think of any of these kids from Arkansas this year. Most of them have to at least be in between the 2011 and 2012 seasons right?

AP comparisons are always over-the-top. If Knile can stay healthy, though, he has a tremendous upside.

Davis was terrible at Arkansas last year, as in they-need-to-STOP-giving-him-the-ball terrible.

But he was a superb talent before he blew out his knee ligaments in 2011. Given that his workouts are being universally lauded, I’m inclined to think he just came back too soon.

Knile Davis is a warrior. I’ll be pulling for him.
