The longest NFL combine broadjump was 11 feet 5 inches. Max Emfinger said he witnessed Williams do a broad jump of 139 inches (11 feet 6 inches).
"It's a standardized test of power, basically," San Diego Chargers college scout Tom Gibbons said. "It's been done for years, so it gives us a starting point and something to compare the players to each other.
Top broad jumps for WR's from last years NFL combine: Mike wallace, Massaquoi, Heyward-bey, Kenny Britt, Austin Collie.... None of which came close (highest at ten feet nine inches) to William's number
I know its just the broad jump but it sounds like it is a pretty good test of power/athleticism.
Williams sounds like a badass to me, we may have just found a diamond in the rough after all

My high school coach always said the vertical and broad jumps were always the best indicator of natural athletic ability.
