Draft Scout Joique Bell News
05/06/10 - RB Joique Bell, who signed with Buffalo as an undrafted rookie from Wayne State, is an intriguing addition to Buffalo's running back mix. He was the Harlon Hill Award winner in 2009 as the best player in Division II football. He rushed for 2,084 yards and 29 TDs as a senior. For his career, his 8,055 all-purpose yards and 576 points place him ninth and fifth, respectively, in NCAA history regardless of division. With No. 1 pick C.J. Spiller, the Bills have two of the most productive college running backs ever on their roster.
03/24/10 - Wayne State running back Joique Bell made the trip up to Mount Pleasant to go through a full workout, including position drills. Bell, who has had disappointing 40-yard dash times in the 4.6 and 4.7 range at the NFL scouting combine and his pro day, ran another slow time Wednesday. One scout had it at 4.82 and another in the high 4.7s. "Jerry Rice and Walter Payton ran slow 40 times too," Bell said. "Did you ever see Jerry Rice get caught from behind? Football speed is a completely different thing. It's like you have that extra gear to run away from guys. "I just hope people look at my entire body of work and my tape. I was in the top 3 percent in nearly all the other drills at the combine." One scout said Bell (5-11, 220) should stop running the 40-yard dash. He'll have at least two more chances to run it before the draft, though. Bell has private workouts scheduled with the Chiefs on April 1 and Lions on April 14. "I've been hearing I can go anywhere from the third round to the sixth round," he said. - Tim Twentyman, The Detroit News
03/21/10 - PRO DAY RESULTS: Wayne State (Mich.) running back Joique Bell is doing everything he can to dispel any negative notion there might be about his NFL potential. Bell might be one of the top small school prospects, but he knows that isnt any sort of guarantee of being taken in the NFL draft. And so on top of working out at the NFL Scouting Combine and on top of performing at his pro day on March 15, Bell will be back at it again March 24 for another workout at Central Michigans pro day. For now, though, hell have to stand on the combine and his pro day, which took place at Grand Valley States indoor facility in front of 17 teams. Bell (5-foot-11, 217 pounds), ran 4.72 and 4.68 seconds in the 40-yard dash and did 16 bench press repetitions. He did position drills and stood on the rest of his numbers from the combine. Bell had a personal workout with the Indianapolis Colts. Gil Brandt, NFL.com
03/15/10 - Wayne State running back Joique Bell of Benton Harbor, the 2009 Harlon Hill Trophy winner as the top player in Division II, showed up (Grand Valley State Proday) to run the 40-yard dash after posting an unimpressive time at the NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis last month. He didn't help himself, posting times of 4.63 and 4.68 seconds in his two attempts. - Brian VanOchten, The Grand Rapids Press
03/02/10 - Wayne State running back Joique Bell could be a surprise on draft weekend because it appears there are a growing number of teams who are watching him carefully. "You'll see a lot more teams watching more film of this kid after the combine. He raised eyebrows at the Senior Bowl and if he runs a good 40 time here, his stock will go up,'' an NFL assistant coach said. How fast would Bell have to run? Bell himself said he hopes to light it up. "While preparing for the combine, I was running 4.4s consistently. A couple of 4.3's,'' Bell said. "I'm aiming here to get a 4.4. Anything less and I'd be disappointed. I'm very confident I'll get it.'' The assistant coach set the bar a little higher than that (or lower, depending on your point of view). "His speed is going to be important, but he's such a good back and he can do anything you want him to do,'' the assistant coach said. "I think he'll be in good shape if he runs in the 4.5's.'' In the low 4.5's? "Anywhere in the 4.5's,'' said the coach. "I think he could go in the fourth round. We'll see how he runs.' - Tom Kowalski, MLive.com
