The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner was the star attraction at Florida's pro day Wednesday, receiving rave reviews from NFL scouts, coaches and general managers after he unveiled his new, compact throwing motion. The bulky left-hander threw dozens of passes to former teammates Riley Cooper, Aaron Hernandez and David Nelson during a 30-minute workout, spoke with several NFL executives and even found time to play catch with a kid confined to a wheelchair. "Those of us that know the position a little bit and watch the position and have coached the position, you saw it," Browns GM Mike Holmgren said. "You saw he's worked hard on changing some of his technique, and I root for him. He's a wonderful young man. I pull for guys like that, and he's going to make some team very happy." Cleveland Browns coach Eric Mangini, Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin, New York Giants coach Tom Coughlin and Tampa Bay Buccaneers Raheem Morris also were in attendance.
If we could get him late why not, we can use him at a few positions and he could be decent after a few years under Ben (hopefully under Ben). I'd rather re-sign Leftwich.
he might have also been there to see haden, spikes and pouncey....all legit top 2 picks for us.
I'm sure the initial visit was for those guys and why not stay. I'm not reading too much into this. I wouldn't mind seeing them try to grab a Tony Pike in the middle rounds.
