Didn't do much at the pro day. He had a 35" vert and ran the circles drill. He weighed in at 248 which was 4 lbs heavier than what he weighed at the combine.
the seriousness of not completing his workouts and not participating in the position drills.
'Why wouldn’t I be worthy?,” Floyd said when asked if he was worth a first-round pick. “I mean I played at Georgia. I made plays for Georgia. Why wouldn’t I be?'
Floyd weighed in at 248 pounds, four pounds more that he did at the combine. He may have eaten too much for the weigh-in.
'Most team question my weight and how much I weighed and if I can continue to gain weight', Floyd said. 'That’s the biggest question. I just show with the scale. I weigh in to keep showing them that I’m gaining weight.'”
Think I might rather take a shot at Nkemdiche; at least I know what position he plays. And he's a couple of years younger. Link - ( New Window )
Obviously a good athlete, but sort of blend in with the other good athletes on the Georgia team. Youtube tapes don't really scream an impact player, the Giants seem to be locking onto him though.
Lots of mocks project him to be in the 20's. As things seem to be unfolding, I think the BPA from the consensus top tier that will likely make it to us are Stanley or Hargreaves. I'd probably prefer either to Floyd.
leonard floyd vs Vandy. He's got lots of quickness in the pass rush. Not as great moving in space, but not bad. He's really tough to block. vs. Vandy - ( New Window )
I agree with this. He's got multiple teams, GMs and coaches flying in to see him and he's just kinda taking it easy today. That's a red flag for me honestly, sick or not sick.
From the article - "In between, Floyd was clocked at 4.32 seconds in the short shuttle and 7.18 seconds in the 3-cone. These are times which would have ranked among the best amid pass rushers tested in Indianapolis."
7.18 3 cone for a guy that size is outstanding and a measurable the Giants value highly.
Mike Mayock thinks its a good pick since he has Floyd as the best edge rusher in the draft outside of Bosa

Shitting yourself in front of a bunch of NFL talent evaluators and media would probably be quite embarrassing.

keep him from at least attempting the drills? I know Jerry must be pissed.

Go take a shit and then come out and attempt the drills. Can't imagine him skipping the drills for a tummy ache, reflects well on him with teams
he ate a shitload of food and water so that he can weigh in heavier than his combine.
obviously thats why he couldnt complete his workout.
If you told me he is like JPP coming out of college, I might get excited. I'm not too excited about a comparison to Kiwi.

Really Bad.
Honestly, I'd drop him a tier.
