-- And finally, my heart went out to Miami running back Mark Walton. The Friday workout came on the one-year anniversary of his mother's death after suffering a stroke. Walton's father was murdered when he was 7. Walton did well on the field, then told me he was anxious to get back to Miami to see his 15-year-old sister and infant daughter. "My story speaks for itself," he said. "I overcame a lot of things, and I'm here today. I didn't give up." The hardest part? "Trying to get through the day without seeing your mom, like you usually do," he said. Unsolicited, two GMs told me Walton was a wonderful interview. He also provided another reminder that the combine is about more than bench-press reps and 40 times. Wish him the very best.
