6'3 200lbs, and lightning fast. He had a great season too. If he runs a 4.3 at the combine, he could be a late first rounder.

Lafell = C. Buster Davis, but Lafell is faster

If Lafell bulks up, he and Bowe will be almost the exact same size

I am interested to see what his vertical is. He can jump as high in pads as anyone i have ever seen. without pads he could be a 43 -45 vert. guy

Some team is going to pick him in the first because of his speed and height.

very few people on earth can jump 43-45"

if lafell gets to 39, he's doing really well

what about his production, route-running, and blocking?

production = good (close to R. Meachem when he came out)

route running = good, on par with Early and Buster Davis

I think he is going to be great in the shuttle drills. Just need to work on his hands.

Lafell CAN produce, and he runs great routes; usually knows exactly when to cut. However, I think he underperformed this year, and it may hurt his draft

Uhhhhh what?

Keep in mind the future first overall pick was throwing Green and MM the ball.

Lafell has AH, JL and JJ

If he runs under a 4.45 I would be surprised..

call me crazy, but I think that Tolliver, C Toliver, Peterson, and Randle (with an experience JJ) can be better than Byrd, LaFell, CM, TT and Lee was last year..

L Seastrunk, in high school, jumped 40 at army game combine. I went to high school with Brandon Dean and he jumped a 46. Lafell can for sure get 39.
