COMBINE PREVIEW: Ty Simpson Among Prospects with MOST to Gain in Indianapolis

·31 min·1 clip

Ty Simpson could prove he is a first-round quarterback, or prove he is not.

1. Locked On NFL Six Pack focuses on the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, Indiana, with Brian Peacock and Matt Williamson previewing the prospects most likely to change draft stock. 2. Brian Peacock hosts from Locked On Bucks, Matt Williamson joins from the Locked On NFL setup, and both matter because they frame how combine testing affects team boards. 3. The episode asks which six combine moments could matter most, especially for quarterbacks, wide receivers, offensive linemen, edge rushers, running backs, and tight ends. 4. Ty Simpson is the quarterback the hosts keep returning to because they think his interviews, weigh-in, and throwing session could move him into first-round territory. 5. Fernando Mendoza is discussed as a likely number-one pick candidate who will not throw at the combine and plans to showcase his receivers at Indiana’s pro day. 6. Drew Allar and Taylen Green come up as the other quarterbacks who could help themselves by looking big, athletic, and clean in drill work. 7. Makai Lemon is treated as the most intriguing receiver because his tape is considered tight, but his listed size and speed could cap his draft range. 8. Denzel Boston is presented as a receiver who could rise if he runs well at his size, while Jordan Tyson is tied to the medical testing he has to pass. 9. Offensive tackle conversation centers on Caleb Lomu, Blake Miller, Monroe Freeling, and Max Iheanacho, with arm length and agility framed as major combine tests. 10. Kalen Proctor is the cautionary example, since the hosts say he cannot afford to show up too heavy if teams are going to trust him at tackle. 11. The most memorable Ty Simpson point is that a coach’s son may interview well enough to start generating first-round mock drafts right away. 12. The hosts stress that Simpson’s listed height and weight cannot be hidden at the combine, unlike a 40-yard dash that can sometimes be deferred to a pro day. 13. They also say that standing next to a prospect in Indianapolis can immediately change impressions, especially if the player looks small, light, or underwhelming. 14. Makai Lemon’s case is built around skepticism that a small receiver who may not run fast enough can keep a first-round grade. 15. The receivers discussion uses Jackson Smith-Njigba as the comparison point, with his combine numbers and agility testing treated as the type of profile Lemon would need to match. 16. For running backs, the hosts say the class has a clear No. 1 but a wide-open race for No. 2, with Jonah Coleman, Jadarian Price, Emmett Johnson, and Singleton mentioned. 17. Tight end has a similar shape, with Kenny Sadiq as the top name and Max Clare, Eli Stowers, and Michael Trigg competing behind him. 18. The tone is conversational and scouting-heavy, with the hosts moving quickly between measurements, thresholds, and draft ranges rather than telling a game-by-game story. 19. Listeners who follow NFL draft prospects, combine testing, and team-fit debates would get the most from this episode. 20. Listeners wanting game recaps or fantasy advice probably should skip this one.
