The 2012 NFL Draft isn’t even seven months old, but with the NFL season halfway over some teams are already second guessing their selections.
As always some rookies have greatly exceeded expectations, while some have struggled to adjust to the NFL game. If the draft was re-done today, halfway through the current season how would the draft look?
Can you picture Griffin in a Patriots uniform?
Could the Patriots be the “mystery team” looking to trade up for Robert Griffin III? We take a hard look at how it would work after the jump.

Today in Indianapolis we saw the offensive skill position players hit the field. The WRs, QBs, and RBs all took part in position and agility drills. In this wrap-up I break down all the happenings of Day Four and who impressed the scouts today.
How have the quarterbacks looked so far at the NFL Combine?

Top quarterbacks Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III… won’t throw.
And neither will Brock Osweiler or Ryan Tannehill. But most of those guys will run and go through the workouts, so lets see how they looked checking in to the combine:

Day 2 of the NFL Combine is in the books, it was kind of an anticlimactic day with no breaking news. However, there is always a few things that catch the eye.

It feels like it’s getting closer, right? With the NFL Combine upon us, the 2012 NFL Draft is a mere 66 days away.
Okay, so it’s not that close, but at least we have the Combine to keep us busy for the next week or so.
I know every year there’s word about how over-hyped the Combine is, but I love it. If anything it gives you a different look at all of the players we’ve been studying all year and more. If nothing else, it’s just fun to see how fast everyone is, how high they can jump and how many times they can rep 225 pounds.
There’s certain players at every position I’ll be keeping an eye out for, and we’ve got all the numbers the players will be wearing so you know who to watch.
