Ten receiver coaches from around the league showed up in Chapel Hill to watch the workout of Hakeem Nicks and they are likely to leave very disappointed.

Sources have told us Nicks weighed in at 226-pounds, looking overweight and out of condition. By contrast Nicks was 212-pounds at the combine. He looked poor running agility drills and injured his hamstring.

does not sound good, gaining 14 lbs, all out of shape...

This makes me back off his 1st round stock, and increase his 2nd round stock
 
That always throws up huge red flags when a guy can't even keep in shape for his Pro Day. Is he really that stupid that he gains 14 fricken pounds before his Pro Day??!!!

I've seen two sites that contradict the initial report.

I've also read nothing about an injury. Apparently he stood on his combine 40 Time and focused on other things today.

Here's a quote from Nicks himself.

"I felt good about it today," said Nicks, who had 68 catches for 1,222 yards and 12 touchdowns as a junior last year. "I think I did what I needed to do. I just told the quarterbacks to throw it and I would catch it. It didn't matter where it was, I will catch it."

maybe somebody is trying to ruin his stock

Wall street has so many lessons for us
 
I don't know why everyone is so high on Nicks. He has great hands and is big, but he lacks the speed and quickness to separate from DBs at the NFL level. He reminds me of Micheal Clayton on the Bucs. Don't remember him?...not surprising, he had 1 good season and then teams learned how to stop him.

He will make a good red zone target, but will be ineffective until the offense gets inside the 20. He could however make a good complement to Ginn, but I think we can find someone in the later rounds for less $$ that may take a little time to develop, which would allow us to address CB or OLB or NT. Nicks is NFL game ready, but he doesn't possess the skills to dominate like a 1st rd pick WR should. Picking Nicks at 25 is overvaluing him IMHO.

i dunno, maybe this is a shifty report..
I just posted hoping someone knew more about it..
give CK 2 days, he'll figure it out he's all about Nicks, me too.
Praying he's there at 2a.
