Legarrette Blount ran a 4.74 and ran for a 1000 plus yards in his rookie season for Tampa Bay. Blount also ran a very quick 3 cone drill. His 3 cone was close in time to much smaller backs as illustrated by the NFL Network. The 3 cone drill is just as important as a 40 for running backs.
Ridley is no Blount. Honestly, doubt he will be on an NFL roster.

This is true he isn't Blount, but my point is the 40 is not as important for bigger backs. The 3 cone drill and the 10 and 20 yard split are more important. Ridley is not an explosive back, but Miles doesn't like explosive backs. Miles likes the pounders. Ridley can make a roster on special teams because the kid is very tough and more athletic than Charles Scott.
