6-3 3/4, 254, 4.75....Played defensive end...All-MAC first team for second-straight season. Had 34 tackles, six for a loss. Returned an interception for a fumble.

From Detroit News: CMU defensive end Frank Zombo (6-4, 269) had an impressive workout Wednesday, according to scouts. Zombo benched 225 pounds 23 times and ran the 40 in 4.71. He could be an outside linebacker in a 3-4 in the NFL, but he's also sparking interest as a tight end. Zombo ran routes and caught passes from LeFevour as a tight end and said afterward he's gotten some interest from NFL teams about playing tight end in the NFL.

* DE John Russell, Wake Forest

6-2 7/8, 278, 4.90

Coming in for a tryout:

WR Shawn Gore, Bishop University (Canada)


Being in Toronto, I've heard of Gore a bit. Dude can flat out fly - ran the 40 in the range of 4.35 seconds. A touch taller than 6 feet, about 200 pounds.

I'm guessing he is getting a tryout as a KR.

I hope they can come up with a punter who can actually punt.

Calm down, poeple, calm down.

I'm fine with Tim Masthay and Chris Bryan competing for the spot. Trust me, we know what we're doing. 4th time's the charm.

I trust Ted, but I'm not sure I do with Punters. Trusting him hasn't worked out very well in the past few years when it comes to our punting situation.

The one that sparks my interest is the OLB Frank Zombo. I don't know much about him, but he seems to be the right size for the job.

I hope we keep Sam Shields strictly for kick returning. He couldn't be worse at coverage than Jarret Bush, anyway.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:
Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : New Pope from Chicago; in other words, the city produced a Pope before a 4000 yard passer

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.
beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans
