Lacks elite top-end speed


This is so dumb to me. The guy ran a 4.43. While that's not necessarily mind-blowing speed, it plenty fast for the NFL, even at his size. Plus, he's very quick. Just watch his TD vs. Kentucky his Freshman year to see an example of his ability in open space.

There was never a question to who the most athletic player on offense was. That's why he was involved on offense and special teams. He had a great day. He still does not get the love he deserves across the board on here for the work he has done at wr, but I don't think anybody ever questioned his athletic ability.

I read this the other day, and I thought that it was very head scratch worthy. 4.43 is elite speed. It isn't Deion Sanders or Chris Johnson speed, but there's still a chance that Beckham could be the fastest player on the field even at the NFL level.
