PhatMack19 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Posted February 23, 2014 There have been 5 receivers run sub 4.4 so far. All of those parents in the HS forum that think their kids run 4.3's need to watch this and add 0.2 to their kids time. Quote

I get them not wanting to throw to strange receivers, but why not run? Quote
AggiesAreWe Posted February 23, 2014 Author Report Posted February 23, 2014 Mike Evans just ran a 4.47 40. '6"5 231 lb WR. Not bad! TxHoops 1 Quote
TxHoops Posted February 23, 2014 Report Posted February 23, 2014 Mike Evans just ran a 4.47 40. '6"5 231 lb WR. Not bad! He is going to make someone a very productive at worst, all world at best receiver. He is as close to a can't miss first round pick as it gets. Quote

As for Bridgewater, no need to run. If he's not going to run a faster time than Manziel (which he wouldn't), there is no reason to give Manziel another chip in the race for which of the two is the first QB drafted. Quote
king Posted February 23, 2014 Report Posted February 23, 2014 The left tackle, Robinson from Auburn is makin big $$ right now!! Quote
Peppermint Patty Posted February 23, 2014 Report Posted February 23, 2014 Teams in the NFL are not going to pay him millions to run. His 40 time is useless. Bridgewater didn't run. I get them not wanting to throw to strange receivers, but why not run? Quote
Baba Ganoush Posted February 23, 2014 Report Posted February 23, 2014 Brady ran 5+. Dumb metric for QB. Even with the "new" mobile QB. Quote
king Posted February 23, 2014 Report Posted February 23, 2014 Jadaveon Clowney did 21 reps on bench press! Wow Quote

Peppermint Patty Posted February 24, 2014 Report Posted February 24, 2014 Official 40 time was a 4.63. Johnny rocks! Quote
king Posted February 24, 2014 Report Posted February 24, 2014 Dri Archer from Kent State Impressed me the most out of all the runjingbacks. Next Darren Sproles I'm calling it now. Quote
baddog Posted February 24, 2014 Report Posted February 24, 2014 Johnny Football runs 4.56 40. Fastest among QB's. Didn't I just read where 3 other QBs ran faster 40 times than Manziel's 4.68. UTfanatic 1 Quote
TxHoops Posted February 24, 2014 Report Posted February 24, 2014 Whether Manziel or Bridgewater run a 4.5 or a 4.8 isn't that big a deal from the QB position. Manziel's elusiveness and playmaking abilities are his greatest assets. His greatest weakness is his size. Whether he translates to the NFL remains to be seen. There is not a QB in this draft though that is a lock (as with most drafts not containing John Elway or Andrew Luck). Quote
shovel Posted February 24, 2014 Report Posted February 24, 2014 I read an intersting tidbit about the combine. Baylor has 6 players at the combine, more than UT or A&M. While all 3 A&M players are projected first rounders, none of the Balor guys are expected to be drafted early. Still a heckuva change for 6 players from Baylor expected to be drafted into the NFL!

PhatMack19 Posted February 24, 2014 Report Posted February 24, 2014 @SportsCenter: Jadeveon Clowney ran a 4.47 in 40-yard dash in his 1st sprint at NFL Combine today. Clowney measures at 6-5, 266 pounds. Still unofficial, but that is still flying for a guy that big. Quote

Oh wait they will change a rule to where Watt and The Freak cant hit to hard. Quote

Clowney measures at 6-5, 266 pounds. Still unofficial, but that is still flying for a guy that big. That is offset by a poor performance in the bench press (Poor by NFL terms) of 21 reps at 225 lbs. For his position, which skill set is more important: speed of strength? Quote

Peppermint Patty Posted February 24, 2014 Report Posted February 24, 2014 Ask Michigan how strong he is lol. Most over-rated hit of all time. Let's see him lay a lick on The Nigerian Nightmare ala Steve Atwood. Now THAT was full contact. UTfanatic 1 Quote
PhatMack19 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Posted February 25, 2014 God told him to leave the combine and not workout and he would be selected by the Seattle Seahawks. Hmmmm let me know how that one works out for him. http://m.espn.go.com/nfl/story?storyId=10510240&src=desktop Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote
