2008 NFL Draft Thread

malcolm kelly ran a 4.68 at his pro day.....ooops

Didn't Anquan Boldin run a 4.7?  Didn't TO run a 4.6+ coming out of college?

I hope this pushes him into the second round where the Eagles can snatch him up.

[Rome]

goeagles99 from the EMB told me that 40 time definitely knocked him out of the first round.  Tommy's usually accurate as hell on those tips,  He thinks the Eagles could get him anywhere from 30-35 if they decide to trade up to get him if they can get one of the teams in that range to take Lito.

[SD_Eagle5]

great...trade up for a wr...that doesnt have disaster written all over it

[Rome]

You wouldn't take Kelly at 30-35?

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Chad Johnson ran a 4.58 out of school.  For reference, he's as much quicker as Kelly as Munson is quicker than Chad Johnson.

[Munson]

Further proof that 40 times mean absolutely jack shtein.

[PhillyPhreak54]

The 10 yard dash means so much more.

Put those Romes in full gear and then have them run it.

[shorebird]

I think 40 times can tell you a little, but speed is nothing without the ability to change direction, and make people miss. I think good peripheral vision is almost as important as speed.

[Munson]

Agree with Phreak, the 10 yard dash is where it's at. When it comes to WR's, that's the most important part...you beat the corner within the first 3 steps of your route.

Plus the 40 can really change by a tenth of a second or more on a day to day basis. Chad Johnson is much faster then a 4.58

How did you fair at the combine and what teams are looking at you?

I ran a 4.26 10 just last week.

Actually the local combine is where I got that time. The only school that talked to me was Wesley, and it was nothing big. Just asked me what school I played for and if I was looking to play in college. I was actually considering going to Wesley to make the team but I'm glad I didn't...a few kids from my graduating class went there to play and they say its impossible to get playing time cause the team is like 80 kids deep. But that explains why they contend a lot of years in DIII...And DelTech is about 328524054 dollars cheaper.

a 4.26 10? Demon, you're as good as drafted sir.

[Rome]

Please stop.
