NFL Combine: Mike Mickens

Mike Mickens was at the top of every ones list back in September, including the Playboy All American team.  Following an injury at the end of the end of the season his "stock", according to some experts, is dropping.  He left the senior bowl last month because of his knee and according to Mickens he will not participate in drills at the combine this week.  At his press conference he discussed his knee, the competition with his team mates and who was on his high school team.
We talked to Mike about his decision to sit out the workouts and got his thoughts on the overwhelming concern that his stock is dropping.  He is confident he can make it rise when the time comes.
Mickens will have the benefit of meeting with NFL teams this week and plans to go through everything that he can.  His chance to reverse the tide of pessimism will take place at pro day on UC's campus March 19.
