Aren't these draft prospects taught how to run the 40 for the combine and pro days?

and jenkins did not improve his 40 going from the combine to his pro day

OSU's track is known as an insanely fast track, usually resulting in 0.15-0.2 decreases

malcom jennings ran the same 40s (4.55-4.60), which means he may have run amazingly at the combine and he's really a 4.7 guy

So if Ty Law was so horrible, then why did he have 8 picks with the Buffalo Bills, not the Patriots, in his mid 30's, when you claim that he was horrid? Scheme? Luck? Some other lame pointless argument that you are ever so famous for?

Get out of here, you dont know squat about athleticism. A guy who runs a 4.5 40 can be considered more athletic than a person who runs a 4.3 40.

Top speed is only one facet of a person's athleticism. But you also have to factor, quickness, balance, change of direction, ability to change speeds, acceleration, hand eye coordination, short area burst, strength, etc. Chris Cummings was one of the fastest LSU corners ever, and played for the Saints but he was garbage.
