Glad to hear he's working hard, but that 40-time isn't going to turn many heads. He'll need a low 4.4 or better to avoid being a mid-round pick.


not sure if serious. If he runs anything under a 4.5 at the combine somebody will pick him up in the 1st 60 picks that's a guarantee. I don't care what they say because in the end no one in the nfl gives a damn if you smoked weed in college. Half the nfl players smoke weed in the off season. justin bieber and michael plelps smoke weed 2.

everyone smokes weed.

I think he could have helped his draft status a little if he would have played somewhere this past season though.

there is no one projecting him as a top 2 round pick. look at a guy like montee ball. guy rushed for over 1800 yards and 20 tds the past 2 season, was a hesiman finalist, and won the doak walker award, yet no one is projecting him higher than a 3rd round grade. why? because he's undersized and has average speed for his position. this happens all the time. there are plenty of studs in college that don't get drafted high, or at all, because they flat out don't have all the natural tools nfl execs want. and it would be stupid for a gm to waste a high draft pick on a player who's ceiling doesn't project as highly as others still on the board.
