    "While he definitely showed some stiffness in his workout, he definitely showed the athleticism to be productive playing from a two point outside linebacker stance in a 34 scheme and a source at the workout told us that in his view that is clearly his best position in the NFL."

    (Akeem Spence)

    "A source at the workout stated that Spence moved around like a linebacker during the drills despite weighing in at 306 pounds. Do not be shocked if a team that plays a 43 scheme drafts Spence in the second round as he reminds us a ton of both Drake Nevis and Glenn Dorsey."

    (Hugh Thornton)

    A naturally powerful man, Thornton showed explosiveness in his movement and impressed with his ability to maintain base while moving around so easily during the workout. Thornton looked so athletic Thursday that sources at the workout told us they would not be surprised if he were tried as a right tackle before being tried at guard in the NFL"

    Spence is a guy I've been wondering if Miami would be interested in in a Geno Atkins type role.

    Big Hugh Thornton fan here. Would love to see Miami grab him.
