Was watching some of the Combine on ch. 212 (direct tv). Saw Bloom run and he looked pretty explosive. I'd think with a some work, he could trim off some time.
There was kid there from Iowa. Wide reciever. Ed Hinkel. Terrific hands. He fared better than just about anybody I saw there. Had one evolution where the QB's would form a gauntlet, for lack of a better term. WR would catch a pass, spin, drop the ball then sprint the gauntlet catching passes from both sides. A series of 5 or 6 passes. Hinkel blew it away. Caught all of his routes as well, even when the QB threw it off target.
Of course I was immediately pissed when the announcers were saying he would make a great "special teamer". They were really selling it. Mentioned 3 times while I was watching over the course of about an hour. Every time a black went through, good or bad. There was cheering, shuckin', jivin' and the like going on. When Hinkel went through, near dead silence, even from his white bro's. I was pretty disgusted.
Didn't get to see Bloom, other than the forty. Haas looked good as did this kid name Denney. Hope they do good, especially this kid from Iowa, though he may bet shafted before he even gets a chance, because he was showing all the blacks up and doing it quietly, and in a very business like fashion.Edited by: Animalmuther0
