I_C_Deadpeople Posted March 3 Report Share Posted March 3 3 hours ago, BlackJesus said: Though Alt had like 3x the number of snaps as Mims. Paul is right there too. I have read on several sites that the Kingsley guy lacks full commitment to football. He is very athletic but often plays lethargically. I have never seen him , just noting what a few sites have said. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|BlackJesus| Posted March 4 Author Report Share Posted March 4 Half way through the day Mims was on his way to being a top 8 pick ... Then his pulled hammy might mean he makes it to the Bengals at 18 again. 🤔 But the issue now is whether he's actually just too big and powerful, so he won't be able to stay healthy?

Just keep in mind that the combine rarely (these days) moves players dramatically up/down boards- many executives and ex-executives have stated that over and over. Mims simply does not have enough games to make him a top 10 so he could still easily be there at 18. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 1 hour ago, Jamie_B said: I had been about 75/25 take him but if he cant stay healthy its a no from me A bit rough there. A very large person turns up slightly lame due to irrelevant/over used 40’s at a shirts/shorts meat market event in March. What is his injury history when he has the gear on and actually playing the sport? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's either going to be a Hall of Famer (Trent Williams) or out of the league in 4 years as a "what coulda been" story. There's only a handful of humans on earth with his size, length, and power ... But can his skeleton and body itself handle all that torque? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't bother me you need to see their explosion out if the stance. I'm not sure he needed to run it twice, but either way the guy can't seem to stay healthy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he dropped into the 3rd I'd take him, but still want someone else at 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His "eye test" is so impressive that some team is going to gamble on him. It may even be the Bengals. Though I prefer Paul as the 'safer' more experienced version of Mims. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe 10 yrds should do it. 40 yrds..absolutely not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claptonrocks Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 Amarius Mims ran a 4.33 short shuttle time at 340 lbs... That's outstanding for a 300lb player let alone 340. He has the total package you'd want in a RT. Doubt he'll be there at 18 but if he is Bengals should take him. Boom or bust? Hell all of them could be.. To many positives to pass on. Mims or Fuaga would be my choices.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky151 Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 We shouldn't overweight the combine, whether for good or ill. I'm not afraid of picking Mims. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He tweaked his ankle in one game. He ran 40 yards twice at combine and Pulled his hammy some but not serious. He'll participate in his proday. Iid say injury history is an exaggeration.
