People have gotten desensitized to 40 times by the constant over embellishment of recruit information IMO.



Absolutely. Those inflated high school numbers don't help.

Yeah, I don't believe many people realize how few can actually run sub 4.5 40's. I can hand time myself at a sub 3.0 if I want but it still isn't accurate.

I think he's a high 2nd round pick given that he won't test incredibly high physically, and this year's WR class is freaking loaded. Also, while 4.5 for Randle isn't bad, I also don't like the Bowe comparison.

Blackmon, Wright, and Floyd are undoubtedly higher prospects than him. Then you put him in the Sanu, Jeffery, Hill group. Personally I think if anyone could motivate Jeffery you'd have a top 15 WR, but he's got more bust risk then the others simply due to questionable work ethics. Hill can absolutely fly and his 40 time will really help him.

Regardless, late first or early second is higher than I would have expected for Randle going into this season so congrats to him.
