I found this info from Gil Brandt's NFL.com column. I had previously wanted McNeil badly--anyone know how his physical turned out? An offensive lineman who can't lift weights (because of the senosis, not the hand) is a pretty poor commodity.... *4. Marcus McNeill, Auburn (6-7 5/8, 336; 5.10) He worked out at the Combine but did not lift because of a right hand fracture. He ran his 40s in 5.07 and 5.12. He had a 31-inch vertical jump, an 8-foot-2 broad jump, 5.00 short shuttle and 8.19 three-cone drill. He had no lifts at his Pro Day. He played on both offensive and defensive lines in high school. He also played basketball, baseball and finished second in the state in shot-put. He started six games as a true freshman and 10 in 2003. He made 24 starts over the next two years. He has the size, long arms (35 3/8 inches), quickness and balance you need for the position. He has very good speed for his size and weight. His best position is most likely at right tackle. He's not real explosive and there's the question of how strong he is. He has stenosis (narrowing of the spine) and had not lifted weights while at Auburn. *NOTE: He could be a second-round pick if he can pass his physical. If not, someone might take a chance on him late on the second day of the draft (sixth or seventh round).
Wow, I had no idea whatsoever about this. If this is the case, I may rather pass on him and go for Mangold or Winston instead at that slot. Never lifted weights while at Auburn? How the hell did he stay strong enough to be a good OL in college?
I saw him at the combine on NFL Network last night.....showed some pretty good agility for a gy his size. Surprisingly in the one drill they showed him doing, Max Jean-Gilles showed better agility but less speed......
Ive never like McNeill, hes completely overrated. Some team, however unfortunate, will reach for him in the first round IMO...the Bucs have shown alot of interest... Id rather have Gilles at 35 and Whitworth in the 3rd
