Even if this kid you're talking about is only in 7th or 8th grade, there's nothing wrong in bringing him up for discussion. We even have a thread on a 2011 kid (of course, he's also a BP member).

I agree, unless you are an unbelieveable talent, you start making your name at combines before and after your junior year or during that junior season. But these days, combines are the way for players to get noticed. So much is put into assigning numbers on a kid's strength and speed, that those numbers are what get your film looked at most of the time.
