Jalen Mills 4.61 40 yard dash

thas not good

Gain 15 lbs mills and move to LB.

He also recorded a 6.86 in the three-cone drill, 4.00 in the 20 yard shuttle, and 11.53 in the 60 yard shuttle, all of which were towards the top of this class.

He also started for 4 years at DBU... so, yeah.

This means his ability to change direction is great, but he lacks straight-line speed.

Sounds perfect for a slot corner, as he is projected by most scouts.

he will be out of the league in 2-3 years.

I'll take that bet! Three years ago I was in his corner when many were saying he wasn't good enough. I still say he's a can't miss pro. I never saw anyone run past him. He was easily one of the top two corners at LSU every year he was here.

A lot of goofballs thought Rashard and Toliver were better, but the truth is that he moved to safety because he could. Dude's a player. You and the NFL are about to find out.

Comparing joe Haden with jalen mills is silly. Jalen struggles in coverage. We tried him all over the field cuz he couldn't maintain a position as a CB. People with their LSU goggles on think he will be great. He was a pretty good player here. But he wasn't great. Let the hate begin.

Dak Prescott planted his face in the ground with a stiff arm two years ago and went 75 yards for a TD. I was at the game. He got beat in coverage numerous times. His best shot is at safety. He is a physical player. I will give him that but he gets beat in man to man coverage

Rich Sherman ran a 4.6 and josh Normans 40 was even slower. He'll be just fine. That injury was a pretty good setback tho.

I compared their speed to prove you don't need to be a 4.4 guy to be a good DB in the league. They play different positions back there, but Jalen is also a good bit bigger and longer.

Point is, he'll be fine with that speed, especially with his size, strength, and athleticism. He's a solid football player.

I think his points were that judging a player solely on his 40 is silly and that one can still be an elite cb with a 4.6

This.

And I don't think he'll be elite, but he'll be a solid role player in the defensive backfield for years.
