Shocked that he doesn't already have a thread. Best center and one of the best interior OL's in this draft. Garrett Bradbury finishes the #2019NFLCombine with one of the highest #RAS for a center ever, currently sitting at 3rd all time. If he were an inch taller, or posted a broad jump 4 inches better, he'd have the top spot all time.*Splits Projected* pic.twitter.com/TcqWX097oY— Kent Lee Platte (@MathBomb) March 1, 2019

That's my only concern, but other than that, he's badass in the run game tho..not a mover or a mauler, but his quickness, lateral movement, and technique is top notch.

I don't even buy that as a criticism honestly, go watch him vs Clemson. He held his own and than some against NFL caliber DT's. I think his absolute best scheme fit is exactly what the 49ers run though. Whether at center or guard, I can see him thrive in a wide zone.

Agree, his film against Boston College is equally good. He's sneaky strong and puts guys on the ground using footwork and positioning. Main problem I see is that he leans too far forward on his pass sets so he's susceptible to swim moves but reps with Bucker will make him get those shoulders back real quick. I don't see strength as an issue here. Decent strength with top notch footwork.

Can I have Bosa, Bradbury, and Isabella with our first three picks?

.@PackFootball @Gbradbury_11 has all the skills necessary to be a top flight center in the NFL. Every team looking for that "anchor" will watch #BCvClemson and the great defensive line. Couldn't find one negative play v the Tigers. #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/T4M0N6UjS1

Sounds like the type of player the pats or saints would snag at the end of the first.

He'd be perfect for us, I can't see him getting passed the Vikings, but if he does we might be in business.

Exactly what I was thinking. Pats written all over him. And they get Isaiah Wynn back from injury. Could be a couple of real good players on their line

I personally don't think we need a center but he can play guard but he's not the best guard prospect for us either. Love the player but I would pass.

Have him play guard for a couple years and then once we cut Richburg move him to Center. That's what I would consider doing. Don't think he will be around at 36 so doesn't matter

After the combine and Senior Bowl, I have a hard time seeing him slip out of the first round. He has a high floor, high ceiling, with the least bust potential of nearly every prospect in this draft. Plug and play ten-year starter.

Teams in the bottom of the first are going to gobble him up. I cannot see any scenario where he would NOT be my second rounder if he is on the board. I have him as my 14th overall best player, and the guys before him will all be first rounders.

He is a type of team leader who can help a new quarterback take over for a retiring legend. Would make sense.
