They pretty much always are. They do the same tests for every WR.

Of all of the things ESPN does that I hate, Sports Science might be the most hated from my end. His mere pronunciation transforms me into a state of pure rage. I literally could not watch this.

I watched it but I remembered why I hate Sports Science. For me it's the stupid statistics and the loosely related examples to give a viewer "perspective".
Michael Floyd runs a 4.47! That's how long Matt Leinart's pro career lasted!
When Justin Blackmon catches a football each of his fingers use over 2 pounds of force! That's as much force as it takes to choke a baby seal!
Urban Meyer averages 10.3 lies to a recruit per official visit! That's as many as I tell my girlfriend on Saturday morning!

NFL.com news: Hot 100: Plenty of draft-stock movement as pro days wrap up
Watch the embedded video link. NFL.com has him slotted above Justin Blackmon right now on their "big board" of sorts.
Crazy to think Floyd went from being a 3rd round pick to a likely top 15 pick by coming back to school.

Notre Dame's Michael Floyd Would Fill Long-Term Need for Patriots' Offense If Team Is Willing to Make Draft Trade - New England Patriots - NESN.com
Just an article released today from NESN.

I hate the pats, but I'm a fan of Notre Dame players, especially the guys that stay all 4 years. The pats would be good for Floyd. Floyd would get his numbers with Brady and later with Mallet. Plus, they win, which is something that I wish Floyd could have experienced more of in his 4 year at ND.

I would be shocked if the Pat's traded up in the first. It's much more likely that they trade down.

DId this guy ever pan out? I saw that he signed an LOI back in 08.....
Pats won't take him, like Wooly said, they'll trade down and stock pile picks. It's not their MO to trade up. And it's worked FOR YEARS. Why the hell would they deviate from that now?

I don't think Mallet will ever see the field unless Brady goes down with an injury again. Hopefully it won't matter because hopefully the Pats won't draft Floyd.

I would LOVE to see him go to the Patriots.

There's been talk that this year maybe they do actually trade up to draft play makers/difference makers on D-- something they're desperately lacking, and have been for a few years. The thought being that Bill Belichick might see that stockpiling picks the last several years hasn't helped his team much out recently...and that he may have to acknowledge (at least personally or within the organization) that some of his draft picks haven't really panned out and that that strategy has not worked. Brady, Welker, some of the OL, and Wilfork only have a couple year window to win.
Who knows what will happen in a couple weeks, but some of the talking heads on the NFL Network, ESPN, etc. think that this year may be different than what his MO has been.

I'm hoping some teams cool off on Floyd, so he can fall to my hometown Bengals for one of their picks at 17 or 21 (thank you Oakland, taking Palmer away for so much). Floyd and AJ Green on opposite sides of the field? I could only wish

Floyd is going top 10. Hopefully the Vikings in a trade down. Minnesota kid needs to come back.

I hate the Pats probably more than I like any pro team, but I'd always root for Michael.
Just Michael though.

personally i don't see him getting out of the top 10 either...someone drafts him or trades up to get him

He didn't get Moss back when he publicly supported it.
Belichek gets what Belichek wants, and that is more picks. Belichek has never picked a WR with a first round pick and the Patriots haven't picked a WR in the first round since '96.
I am very confident that you will not see Floyd a Patriot.

Fine by me here. It would hurt me to have to root for the Pats.
I haven't seen one team mentioned that actually want to see Floyd on.
It is too bad that the possibility of him ending up with the Bears is looking slim.

LMAO. I was thinking the exact same thing 2 days ago.I'm in Cincy and would give anything to see him and AJ on the same team w/ Dalton...that would be EPIC!
However...not a chance in hell it happens unless the Bengals move up their draft status to the Top10...it's looking like Floyd will go somewhere between 6-10.

What would that look like in terms of dollar signs? Just curious if you or anyone else knows the difference in contract amount between 1-5, 6-10, 11-20. It's significant, no?
