Let's see. The NFL has 32 teams, consider newspaper reporters, tv reporters, radio reporters, photogs (both video and still), a mix of producers and audio technicians from all those cities, as well as ESPN, The NFL Network, Sportsouth, FSN, the local crews and a handful of crews from the former colleges, 400 actually seems kind of low to me.

Cottam went yesterday (I think). Getting hounded about being injury prone, I read somewhere that he was projected as the number 5 TE. Anywhere from a 2nd-5th rounder.

I read reports that Darren McFadden may go Randy Moss and drop way down in the draft. Folks are questioning his character because of a couple off-field issues.

Those "folks" are semi-retarded.

Tight Ends, Special Teams and OL do drills Saturday.

QBs, WRs and RBs do their drills on Sunday

DL and LBs do drills on Monday

DBs do drills on Tuesday

Falcons need a qb, Dallas will probably trade up and get DMAC. I think the Dolphins end up taking a qb when its all said and done to. Ryan, Brohm and the Flako (sp) will make alot of money this year.

NFL Events: Combine

also I think the NFL Network typically offers great coverage. Unfortunately, I no longer receive it.

Their strategy will depend heavily on if the Hall trade goes through and gives them an extra 1st rounder....I agree the Falcons need QB but you take the best player with #3 overall then try to get a QB at #31 overall IMO(assuming they do trade with the Giants)

They will take Ryan or Brohm whichever one is there. DMAC will be a Cowboy or Jet.
