via Rotoworld.com:
One scout tells former player and current ESPN.com analyst Ross Tucker that Arkansas QB Ryan Mallett "thinks he is Eminem."
"Take what you will from that but it certainly wasn't a positive for that scout," said Tucker. So Mallett came from hard-scrabble roots, is deep into hip hop and multisyllabic rhymes, and enjoys shocking white suburban America by questioning their value system? On a serious note, it's easy to see that Eminem's rebellious attitude and drug use wouldn't fly in the NFL, which may help to explain the character issues surrounding Mallett. We just want to see Mallett vs. Slim Shady in a forty-yard dash.

On a side note, I don't really like Corey Luiget. Nothing special IMO.

Solder dropped 12 pounds since the combine. It seems pretty evident that he has trouble keeping weight on, which is one major issue for him.

And that's BIG. As he is going to need to bulk up if he wants to be a solid tackle in the NFL.

Don't be shocked if he starts slipping down the board..

Talked with a scout the other day who said he thinks Arkansas QB Ryan Mallett is a lock for round one. However, at the same time he said he would take Nevada QB Colin Kaepernick any day in the second round over using a first on Mallett.
Interesting quote..

Nic Grigsby is someone to keep an eye on.
He's interesting.

Von Miller is apparently going into this whole mess with the NFL and is going to be plaintiff as I understand? Hm. I don't see how this is going to hurt his stock like everyone says it could possibly do. He'll be fine.

People just aren't going to not pick him because he's involved with the lawsuit thing if that's what everyone is saying, I don't know, I haven't read it. Or they going to cut Peyton Manning or Tom Brady because of that too?

I just don't see how it will change his draft stock in anybody's eyes.

He's a lock to Arizona at #5 I truly believe.

Look at their track record of big Senior Bowl game guys..

ESPN's Adam Schefter predicts that Auburn QB Cam Newton will be the No. 1 overall pick in April's draft.
"Last week, I sensed Blaine Gabbert," Schefter said in an ESPN Insider Q&A. "...This week, I'm more on the Cam Newton bandwagon. The more I hear, the more it sounds like Newton is the player to beat for the No. 1 pick." Schefter points out that the Panthers "need to create buzz to sell some tickets," and Newton is their best bet for that. Schefter beat everyone to the punch on Sam Bradford going to the Rams at No. 1 overall last year.

Cam Newton in a Panthers uni... I think so. This is just gravy to my thoughts, though.

IDK he makes it to the fourth. Anywhere in the 3rd I have him going.
