is there a 2nd draft after the normal draft?

Yeah, over 4.7 has been the death knell for even LBers in the past. I can't imagine anyone is impressed enough to draft an RB with that time. Don't give me this stuff about vision either, it is assumed that all the RBs have the same intangibles. That is why they have the combine, to distinguish those with the actual physical skills to do the job.

Edit to clarify that I am not saying whether or not he will have a successful career, but that this number number would likely place him in the 6-7 or UDFA range. His second time was a little better. Hope he makes it, and has a good career.
