times for OL are so relevant. Lol at the people saying he just earned MAJOR cash. He may get drafted higher than most of the retards on here thought when he declared, but it won't be because he has a good 40 time.


Bull, quick feet are a major plus for an o-lineman

You're right in saying it won't earn him major cash, but it does say something about his athleticism which is always a plus for scouts. I think his combine performance/interviews could jump him up a round, but I always had him pegged for a 3-4 rounder anyways. Not really a big difference.

You don't think athleticism helps his standing? You can't be serious.

I'm sure all these highly paid NFL coaches and scouts are lined up watching OL run the 40 for absolutely no reason at all.

If the OL 40 didn't mean anything they wouldn't have them do it.

Dumbass.

Yeah no shite athleticism will help. But there are better test of athleticism for an OL than a 40 time. Any OL that ran slower than Trai could be quicker in other drills which would be more relevant for an OL. So a 40 time alone isn't earning him MAJOR cash

40 times alone doesn't make anyone MAJOR cash.

Depending on the position, yeah they certainly can. OL isn't one of them though.

You realize their was only one person in this thread that said his 40 time was going to earn him "major" cash right?

I think I saw 2. And those were the ones I would be addressing. What's your point?

The announcers just said Trai didn't participate in the cone drill because he pulled something during his last 40-yard dash

My point is that while you're trying to bust some chops, your so called "all the people" was just one person. You made it seem like...

"Wow, look at all these morons who think he just landed a FAT payday"

...but if you had read the actual posts, that just wasn't the case.
