The Strongest Player

The NFL Scouting Combine has a lot of interesting stories. I think many players are over-hyped by the draft "experts". They fall in love with some of their workout numbers.

They must really like DT Stephen Paea from Oregon. He set a new Combine record for the bench press by doing 49 repetitions with 225 pounds. I wonder what he did for a vertical jump.

It's interesting to note that he was born in New Zealand and spent early years on the island of Tonga where he first started to play the game.

He is considered to be one of the top defensive tackles and a likely first rounder.
