Jaron Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 For those of you who have Comcast Digital Cable, the NFL Network 'On Demand' has video profiles of ~ 50 players, including Campbell, Rogers, and McCune. They show clips from games, the combine and the Senior Bowl. They show McCune being weighed and measured at the combine (sans shirt) and he looks absolutely HUGE. I apologize if this has been posted before, but I didn't find any matches with the search feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funkyalligator Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 He is a ton bigger than Antonio Pierce and is just as fast if not faster.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnydertheHun Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 That is McCune and he is much faster than Pierce. We was a track star in high school. Runs a legit 4.4 at that size. He also bench presses 535, which may have been more than anyone else in the draft. The guy is a freak athletically. Can he play? We'll find out.

Heavy Jumbo Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Originally posted by Funkyalligator He is a ton bigger than Antonio Pierce and is just as fast if not faster.... But how smart is he? That's one of the biggest things AP had going for him, his ability to learn the playbook so quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLusby Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Unbelievable! I want a McCune jersey ASAP. Maybe I'll get one made at the NFL shop. I hope he signed the NFLPA contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what his WonderLick score was (I'll have to ask his girlfriend for that) but I heard that he sometimes forgets how to tie his shoes and he occasionally needs help dialing the telephone (all those numbers confuse him). Anyways he sure looks good coming off the bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASkinsfan28 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 It's not just how he speaks. if u read prospect files on nfl.com it says he had trouble reading plays and stuff like that, and he just made up for it with his speed and athleticism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDane Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 McCune appears to be -- looks included -- an ideal special teams monster of the Manusky variety. Whether he can play MLB at the pro level is to be determined. Oh, and Molassey, I think BCS was just foolin around... I think. :paranoid: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No-one was saying anything about football smarts, and the comment BCS made seemed to suggest that he's just dumb as a brick. Which based on his score, he seems to know something. Now if we're talking about reading plays, Brett Farve had a problem reading plays, Patrick Ramsey has troubles reading play, Lavar Arrington has the same problem. I don't think those guys are dumb. I'm just so sick of people judging the guy by how he talks. I'm guilty of it too at times, but I try to correct myself. And sure the way he speaks can give you the wrong impression, but I don't see people looking past that. Some of you guys around here seem to get all hung up on how he talks, or how Clinton Portis talks or any of these guys, and use it to jab at their intelligence. It's bull**** and it really pisses me off! Just cause a guy talks using slang, or has a deep southern drawl, he must be a knucklehead dumbass. I'm sorry, I know I'm going on a rant, but it's unnecessary. And GA, I'm not really trying to direct this at you, it's just something that's been bothering me, and you just happened to be in my way at the time I went off on my tantrum.

iheartskins Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 SSM: What you're seeing is that people generally correlate being articulate and having good diction with intelligence and the lack of either or both to being either uneducated or stupid. It's tough to judge these guys in any other way than how they talk--it's our only insight into who they are given that we don't have access to direct discussion and/or playbook study sessions with them. Is it unfair to judge people superficially and on this point alone? Sure, but it's the only way we can consider whether or not they are in fact intelligent. This is not to say that your point isn't well taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking bout football smarts not how smart he really is. Trust me i dont judge ppl by how smart they are by how they talk because, i was born in Maryland and most my family still lives up there and when ever i go to visit thats all i hear is bout my accent and how i talk i hate it.

But i was talking bout football smarts not how smart he really is. Like I said, I wasn't trying to get in your case, I just happened to read some comments that seemed to suggest the guy was one step from being a retard. In-fact, you saying, just now in that one sentence, that you've seen scouting reports that said he's had problems reading plays, say much more than all of these people going around saying, "Harharhar, listen to this guy talk, he's stupid!". BTW, we're in the same boat, I'm from Baltimore and I live in Atlanta now, when I first moved here, all people ever asked me, as a kid, was why I talked so "white". IheartSkins, I see your point, and I understand it 100%. Just like I said, sometimes I'll judge someone by how they talk, but I learned not to quickly because I've met some really smart people who don't talk like they just walked out of a Prep School. And I've also met people who are dumb as hell, but they talk like they're some sort of scholar. I'm just saying it goes both ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I have to work with a couple people that sit squarely within the bounds of the second class of folks. It's funny too--the Editor of the Law Review (the highest academic honor in law school) at my law school is someone who you'd never think had graduated from college. The guy is full of slang and the rest--but when it comes down to drafting pleadings and/or constructing arguments, there are few that are better.
