Who Lost Money at the Combine?

I don't remember him at the combine at all, did he just opt out?

Martin has a chance to jump him too, if he has a really good pro day.

But Adams is still a first round pick. It would be weird for only 3 OTs to go in the first.

I think he was the #4 OT going into the combine and is the #4 OT still. Martin gets no love here. He reminds me of Trent Williams (who went #4 overall) who was a ZBS fit with great athleticism despite not having a great senior year. I think Martin will be the 2nd OT drafted when all is said and done....Reiff #3, Adams #4.

Some kind of foot sprain. He can probably rehab his stock some before the draft but i think any chance of moving into that first round is gone, if it ever was there.

I agree with that. But the way a lot of people were talking, after the Senior Bowl Adams was a lock to be the #2 OT taken with a good combine. He didn't have a good combine, and being the fourth OT taken is really much more consistent with his actual play on the field. Adams can block, but he's way too inconsistent for me to consider taking him ahead of Reiff or Martin. Consistency, to me, is really the single most important thing for offensive tackles, once you establish that they're above the required threshold for technique, strength, and athleticism.

Yea I think so. He said he injured his foot or something like two months ago. It was a really dumb decision on his part...I was disappointed as I thought he was the next guy in line after Tannehill. He could of worked out and really helped his stock. I think he just was taking his agent's advice.
