David Bruton

[dyrtdogg]

Has anyone heard anything about how Bruton is performing in Senior Bowl practices? I went to NFL.com and skimmed some of their Senior Bowl videos but didn't hear any reference to him. Has anyone who has paid more attention than I have know how he's doing?

Dang! I dont know by who. But whoever it was just made a ton of money.

[dyrtdogg]

Yeah, I just watched video of the recap of Day 2 of practices. There's a nice shot of Shawn Nelson (TE from S. Miss) steamrolling Rey Rey. And I sighed contentedly.

some premium board that I don't have a membership too has a thread title that suggests he is not doing well at all -- in fact, it indicates that his stock is taking a "nosedive". But, again, I can't actually read the thread to see what the issue is.

[sreepointer]

I was scouring the web today looking and couldn't find much. If it is true that his stock is taking a nose dive, that is fine for now, because athletically he is freak. If he goes to the combine, he will impress people. Plus, he will make his name in the NFL on special teams at first anyway.

I just found this article and video over at WNDU.com:


David Bruton hits the gridiron hard in preparation for Senior Bowl (http://www.wndu.com/sports/headlines/38125219.html)

[Jonny Angel]

I was listening to NFL radio and waiting to hear something, anything about David. Nothing at all. They showed the practices on NFL network last night and still no David. I'll check again today, and if I hear or see anything I'll post it tomorrow.

[SpanishElite]

Hopefully he has a great combine. It looks like he might need it.

"Notre Dame’s David Bruton really looked bad in the one-on-one matchup taking too many extra steps and showing a slow drive to the football. He appeared to be getting on himself after each of those catches he allowed which shows some passion and competitiveness. "

Can't look away from signature.:drooling:

[robertsgolf]

He'll be fine. It is what it is...He will be a solid special teamer and as he learns the game more a decent dime back.

[SanDiegoIrishFan]

Love trhis thread, even if just for Ownz pic and RGolf's avatar! Bruton should do well at the combine but still wont be a very high pic. But he will play in the NFL and could get a shot if he plays well on ST.

[ND_Ownz!]

I love Bruton, he hails from Miamisburg (Dayton) so I'm all for him succeeding...c'mon David step it up man!

[kak7304]

He's putting up some great numbers at the combine.

[NDGirlzRock]

How good are we talking about?

[wicket]

dude is earning some good money at the combine today

unofficially ran a 4.43 the first time and a 4.42 the second time.

UPDATE:

David Bruton
Height: 6'2
Weight: 219
40 yd: 4.46 --- 2nd place for safeties, tied 2nd place for DBs
Vertical: 41.5" --- tied 1st place for safeties, tied 3rd place for DBs
60 yd shuttle: 10.96 --- 1st place for safeties, 1st place for DBs

He tore it up from a measureables standpoint...the knock on him though is tight hips causing him to struggle a little bit in man to man coverage.

amd the fact he cant catch very well which will cost him a bit interceptino wise

[notredomer23]

those meausurables might have moved him from a 4th to 5th round pick to a 2nd to 3rd.

[NDGirlzRock]

Yeah I agree 23....and I'm so happy for the guy!

I'm rooting for David to start cashing NFL paychecks. That way he can afford to buy a decent chin strap.

Seemed like every game his helmet would come flying off.

Would love to see him in a Bears uniform.

[NDGirlzRock]

Da Bears!!! Sorry but I don't share your enthuasism for the bears. I'd love to see him in Cleveland!!!

[wicket]

come to the saints david

[ND_Ownz!]

I wouldn't mind seeing him in a Bears uni ;)

[lags24]

I agree with Ownz...better than have a SS playing FS

[Murf NDawg]

Better a Bear than a sit on the bench (like Brady) Brown.

Amen, would love to see him in a Bears uni. No matter what, even at league minimum, I will love to see him start cashing NFL paychecks. He is a young man with his head on straight, he worked hard on and off the field to provide a good future for his son. Good luck to him.

Bruton has been a special teams Ace in Denver. Beats constant double teams as the gunner. Forced a game winning fumble this week but was hurt on the play.
