The 2017 NFL Combine will take place from February 28 through March 06 in Indianapolis

All of the NFL Teams will be there to look at the new talent. Each will have tried to research players they are already interested in. It should be most interesting.

Please share your thoughts here before, during, and after the Combine.

PFWT is correct. From cleveland.com:

The draft guys here (mostly we ask Dane Brugler of CBSSports.com these things) said you measure this by stretching your hand out on a flat surface and taking the length from the tip of your thumb to the tip of your pinky.

The pic I linked is from a measurement at the combine where it appears they're measuring base of palm to tip of middle finger. I thought there was one hand measurement, but that pic makes me think there are two.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

As interesting as the 2017 NFL Draft will be, the 2017 Combine will help shine a light upon and help to identify "Players you'd love to see become Packers".

In other words, let's not place the cart before the horse. [cheers]

John Ross (WR) from Washington sets new record in the 40 yd dash, 4.22 sec.

This breaks Chris Johnson's 4.24 sec record.

WOW !
