Combine notes for the Warriors

HA Note: "Yesterday at the National Football League Scouting Combine, quarterback Colt Brennan and receivers Jason Rivers, Davone Bess and Ryan Grice-Mullins took the Wonderlic, a 50-question quiz that measures personality and intelligence. There was a time limit of 12 minutes."

About the Wonderlic, Bess said:
"It was intense." (HA)

HA Note: "Each answered at least 30 questions, which is considered to be a good amount considering the time restrictions."

Colt said that he felt he did well:
"But you never really know because they don't give you any feedback." (HA)

About the wonderlic, Rivers said:
"It was OK." (HA)

HA Note: "Rivers and Brennan did not participate in the weight-lifting sessions. Rivers said he will lift during the April 1 Pro Day in Carson, Calif. Brennan said he wanted to focus on today's passing drills. He said he was told quarterbacks are not judged on sprints or weight-lifting."

About how the passing drills are the most important for QBs at the combine, Colt said:
"It's on-field decisions that matter the most." (HA)

About benching 225 pounds 17 times, RGM said:
"I'm kind of disappointed with that. I think I could have done more." (HA)

About how he benched 225 pounds 14 times, but one of his lifts was disallowed, Bess said:
"Put it down at 14." (HA)

About how he had not had more than 9 reps until he started training in Arizona last month, Bess said:
"I'm stronger and more confident." (HA)

HA Note: "The receivers face a key workout today in the 40-yard dash, what has become the standard measurement for speed. Rivers, who has run the 40 in 4.45 seconds, hopes to run in the low 4.4s. If he can break 4.4, he might elevate into a first-day prospect. The first two rounds of the NFL draft will be held April 26; the final five April 27. Rivers said he will wear Nike Mercurial Vapor cleats. Each shoe weighs about 6 ounces."

About Rivers' 6-ounce cleats, agent Leo Goes said:
"They're light as a feather." (HA)

HA Note: "Grice-Mullins and Bess also chose light cleats. The RCA Dome has the same type of FieldTurf as Aloha Stadium."

About the importance of his 40-yard time today, Bess said:
"The knock right now is my top-end speed. I have to show them I can run." (HA)

HA Note; "Bess said he had past problems with his start. He believed he was ascending from his stance too quickly."

About trying to correct his previous start problems, Bess said:
"The key is to start low and drive through." (HA)

HA Note: "He said better technique might shave a tenth of a second. His goal is to run the 40 in under 4.6 seconds. Bess and Brennan have been asked to participate in individual workouts for NFL teams. Bess said he has spoken with the Cincinnati Bengals and Denver Broncos. The Bengals are seeking an inside receiver who can return kicks."

About how the Bengals want a slot WR who can return kicks, Bess said:
"I'm here. I'm on the market." (HA)
