Posted by Aaron Wilson on April 1, 2009, 5:42 p.m.
The much-anticipated USC Pro Day workout that is the center of the NFL universe today has been headlined by some good 40-yard dash times, according to Mike Mayock of NFL.com.

Mayock reports that linebacker Clay Matthews ran a 4.57 in the 40-yard dash with linebackers Brian Cushing and Kaluka Maiava turning in 4.68 times, respectively.

Defensive end Kyle Moore was clocked in 4.76 seconds with wide receiver Patrick Turner turning in a 4.63 effort.

Quarterback Mark Sanchez didn’t run the 40-yard dash, and linebacker Rey Maualuga is scheduled to run his 40-yard dash later today.

As for the roll call of NFL brass with 30 of the 32 teams represented, here are a few of the bigger names in attendance: Arizona Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt, San Francisco 49ers coach Mike Singletary, Minnesota Vikings coach Brad Childress and personnel chief Rick Spielman, New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton, Detroit Lions coach Jim Schwartz and General Manager Martin Mayhew, Cardinals General Manager Rod Graves, Green Bay Packers General Manager Ted Thompson and the New Orleans Saints’ Mickey Loomis.

Plus, Cardinals owner Bill Bidwill is in the house.

[B]The Houston Texans and the Denver Broncos are reportedly the only teams not in attendance.

LOL...exactly what I thought.

Besides we brought Rey in for a private workout didn't we...who cares whether we took the trip to USC.

Re: Which USC linebacker would you like the most and why?
 

Clay Matthews apparently looked great at the Pro Day today. He easily has the best coverage skills of the three. Mike Mayock thinks Cushing will step in and contribute right away at SAM.

That said, I'd still take Rey. I've been saying for months I think he'll be a pro-bowler for 10 years, and we're gonna need a replacement for Fletcher sooner rather than later.

Per SS Rey doesn't look like he's on our radar :(. Oh well, i hope we just land an OLB or a LB, or maybe both) who can truly be starters from day one and add something to the team.

Re: Which USC linebacker would you like the most and why?
 

Ya guys it's gonna be oher, but if we get an LB it'll be Matthews I want maualuga, but the problem is I don't think the skins are that high on him either...then again all this about who we'll draft won't matter if we get cutler, who I do not want

Re: Which USC linebacker would you like the most and why?
 

I was just reading on Matt Terl's blog that Chris Wilson will be looked at for the strongside LB position. At least Blache is[B] looking [/B]at it. Wilson's pretty excited about it.

Re: Which USC linebacker would you like the most and why?
 

Can we just lock up this and any other draft related threads, sh!t we're going to give up all of our picks to get Cutler. :soapbox:

[quote=johno;540695]Clay Matthews...is a hands down NO. Here's why:

A "good bloodline" does not change that the guy as 10 career starts. Why waste a 1st round pick, 13th at that, on a guy who hasn't played a full year in college? No thanks.[/quote]

Do not underestimate what an good bloodline can say about a player.

Clay Matthews is the real deal. He is a 3 down linebacker that can rush the passer in a 3 point stance. He even out performed the other USC linebackers at the pro day. He is in now way a waste.

I was Jordy Nelson's biggest fan last year, and I now dub Clay Matthews as this year's version of Jordy Nelson!!! He was a walk on. He changed positions, and still managed to get on the field at USC. He is a hard working and athletic LB that can do a lot for a defense.

But don't take my word for it. Check out this video from nfl.com

Nice post man. Matthews has met every challenge put before him. I like him.

Dude, You are so right! I was discussing this thread at dinner with my son-in-law, and family, and was going to suggest as a joke, Bobby Bouchette with his NCAA record 17 sacks in a game. Then I see this Cutler mess the FO is contemplating.

Can't they just get the GM of the Patriots or the Steelers in here instead of a gutless VC and a greedy DS?

Don't forget that it was a former Pats coordinator that F this up. If stupid McDaniels had stopped acting like a fool and worked with Cutler from the get go, we could still be discussing who we can pick at #13.

Somebody tell that fool McDaniel that unlike Boston, in Denver football is the #1 sport. And that his dark master Belichick can do whatever the hell he wants in N.E. b/c a.) he's won 3 SBs and b.) as long it doesn't involve the Red Sox, fans are not going to question him.

Re: Which USC linebacker would you like the most and why?
 

NFL network sure made Mathews sound like the second coming of Brian Urlacher.

Well now i can't find the post (your post) but in it u said they'd take Oher @ 13 and then maybe look @ Matthews...I'll keep looking.

Anywho, doesn't really sound like any of that matters no does it...what's your take on the Cutler in DC era?
