Here's part of his take on the combine:
Anyways, on to the updates. If you remember awhile back one of my goals was to weigh in over 300lbs. Well, I can check that one off as I weighed in at 304 lbs officially. Nice. I also measured 6' 3/4". That is actually a quarter of an inch TALLER than Sedrick Ellis. Not sure why I get dinged for my height and Sed doesn't...but oh well. So I was happy about that.
Today was a trip too. Started off on the bench press. Again, I had set a goal of above 30 reps before the combine...and I can check that bad boy off too cuz I put up 35 reps!!! I am pretty pumped about that. It can be intimidating walking into that room and seeing everyone just staring at the bench. I focused though, and just started pumping myself up. Funny thing happened as I was doing that...the dude that was counting and helping with the bench started getting into it too...and started yelling at me "show em what you got!!", then he pulls out "show em what you got WOLFMAN! Show em WOLF!"...I was like WHAT? I went with it though and absolutely destroyed the bench. I actually tied for 2nd among DL only 2 behind the leader. Some other notables...Kentwan Balmer got 33, Sedrick Ellis got 34, Demario Pressley got 28 and Red Bryant got 20. So I'm pretty proud that I beat all of those guys.
