Pretty shocking. Always thought the combine was more for guys with question marks than anything else. I'd think a lot of teams would want to get a look at him.

Guess this just leaves his pro-day and senior bowl?

The NFL is not in the business of giving hand outs.

It’s a great story but I don’t see him as ever being an NFL player.

I figured everyone who had a decent shot at being drafted was invited and he definitely does. Odd

I mean, Jason Pierre-Paul proved playing without a hand is possible...

JPP has a hand, he just has weird arse fingers or nubs.

Missing hand =/= missing finger

While your point is correct, i'm pretty sure JPP is missing more than just a singular finger.

Yeah, but he played with a cast on his hand for a while. Kind of the same thing.

Griffin is also really small for a LB. They listed him at 6'2'' 229(likely fudged) since they had him at 6'1'' 213 the year before.

Like a caveman's club vs the tip of a cane. Maybe he's a special teamer in the NFL but if he actually works his way into consistent time at LB at his size and with his disadvantage it's basically one of the greatest stories in NFL history.

Yeah, but maybe he can wear a cast too.

But I get it, not really worth using a draft pick on him.
