Niners in the NFL / Pros

& a slight update to the tread title. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Felt like he was underrated. Had HR potential on every play.

Grant didn’t struggle with anything at Charlotte. That’s why I knew he would eventually play on Sunday

How many players are invited to the combine?

324 in 2022.

I think they usually invite around the top 15 or 16 at each position (x2 for WR) plus a couple of specialists.

Ben Deluca is on the roster for the St. Louis Battlehawks.

There is someone else Ogunjobi praised with the Steelers turnaround from the 2-6 start to a 9-8 finished, and that was Coach Mike Tomlin. Ogunjobi said playing for Tomlin was one of the things he enjoyed most last season, taking in his overall approach and his day-to-day personality.

“It’s his level of detail and understanding, his leadership,” said Ogunjobi. "He played a pivotal role not only in my own personal development, but the development of the entire team, along with the coaches, support staff and ownership. It’s a first-class organization that’s been run the right way for a really long time.

"When we started off 2-6, Coach T said something in the meetings that he is not going to be a moving target. Any time you want to be great at anything, consistency is the key. He was always consistent, always coming into the morning meetings with the energy, sending a message that we’re still in this thing regardless of where we are right now. He always said we’re not going to blink. He told us to smile in the face of adversity. Stand tall, find a way to get it done because the only people that can fix it was us. And that was one of the important messages. That is just the type of person he has been for everybody to just watch and emulate.

“You know he’s not going to play around with you. He’s going to keep it completely honest, but I think that’s what you need to do. You need clarity, cohesion, honesty, because when you go through relationships, real conversations, it leaves room for real growth. I think that’s really important.”

7th round ? That’s gotta be because they figure he won’t be available so they wasted a low pick as a flyer.

I think the teams in the USFL were basically drafting for future purposes - i.e. it doesn’t work out for a given player in the NFL.

He went 55th overall, which would be 2nd round in the NFL draft. Grant is probably a day 3 pick, a good combine/pro day could get him up to R4/5.
