I still can't figure out why he could never get separation deep if he was that fast.

He did plenty of times, unless your definition of separation deep is 10 yards behind the corner which doesn't happen without a break down in coverage.

And also the reason Beckham was able to get open almost at will on comeback routes was because of how much teams feared his ability to blow by coverage deep. It was easy to see Beckham played with elite level speed.

I agree. Teams do their scouting, know who can beat them deep, and coach their secondary up to keep the receiver in front of them. That is why the "stick" routes were always so wide open for OBJ.

I also think we underestimate the speed of an SEC DB. You really have to be an elite track guy to simply just run by an SEC DB by 10 yards on a 9 route.

As far as Trey, I think if the NFL combine were today, he would run between 4.45 and 4.48 official laser time. The sub 4.4's he has run were hand timed I beleive. Now, four years from now? Who knows, I beleive sub 4.4 laser is very possible given his work ethic and Coach Moffit's system.
