Edit, Ponds is a teammate of Mendoza's and he was high on the idea of being a continued teammate.
We also had An interview with Indiana's tight end who also played some fullback

This kid is such a stud and an absolute beast as a return man. I think he’s going round 1 though.

I've seen him drop into the top of the 2nd round in some mocks, but mostly considered a mid to late first rounder.

Im actually coming around to the idea of taking a receiver #2 if there is the right one. Its just such a hard position to improve in free agency.

Concepcion is insane in the open field and is exciting af..but he can make a crazy catch then have a few mind blowing drops..frustrating stuff

What did everyone think of Sadiq’s crazy time? Idk..seems small even though it’s an inc or two different from say like,Brock. I just see him getting ate up at the line.maybe I’m a hater.

The combine is the only thing happening but I don't get worked up over crazy 40 times or arm length or whatever. It might shed some light on a guy from a small school who hasn't faced tough competition, but mostly it's just a heightened news cycle because so many decision makers are in one place.

The Raiders drafted 25% of the top 16 receivers on the list of fastest ever 40 times — Ruggs, Ford, DHB, and Thornton. We are lame.

Ford was a really good pick derailed by injury. Thornton is currently a contender for the Training Camp HOF.
