[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 663379"] What concerns me, and why I didn't look that close at him in the first place, is that he broke his wrist in December and then skipped the Combine workouts. At his Pro Day he was suffering a hamstring. He did lift at the Pro Day showing 13, which might indicate some residual wrist issues. He had a private workout in mid-April, which looks pretty good for a guy who didn't train for it, 3-cone notwithstanding, but he evidently did not try to improve on the lifts, which is a concern. [URL]http://draftwire.usatoday.com/2016/04/13/jeremy-cash-posts-workout-results-at-private-pro-day-95-healthy/[/URL] I'm highly skeptical of these smaller guys. be they college SS or ILB, playing even semi-regularly at ILB. It's just a rebranding the of the box safety concept.
