You're missing the point. Show me other 4.88 edge players in the NFL with good shuttles that are getting sacks. I'm not interested in DT prospects in this draft with shuttles that align with their 40 times. You're making my own point for me

How about I show you prospects who had really good 40 times yet they haven't produced squat in the NFL. Deon Jordan, Keke Mingo, Randy Gregory are just a quick few who come to mind. Remember Martez Wilson? His 40 was 4.49 & he was dog shite as a pass rusher. Why? Because he was inconsistent in college despite his physical gifts. Randy Gregory is a head case. There is more to selecting draft picks than combine measurables which you seem to be infatuated with.

Martez Wilson (LB31)
HT: 6'4" WT: 250LBS.
POSITION: OLB
SCHOOL: Illinois
ARM LENGTH: 34 5/8"
HANDS: 9 3/4"

40 YARD DASH: 4.49 SEC
BENCH PRESS: 23 REPS
VERTICAL JUMP: 36.0 INCH
BROAD JUMP: 124.0 INCH
3 CONE DRILL: 7.04 SEC
20 YARD SHUTTLE: 4.28 SEC

Ok, Mr. 40 yard dash. You said the short shuttle always matches similar with the 40 times. I've proven that to be incorrect. My point is the short shuttle is more important than the 40 when looking at pass rush prospects or defensive linemen period.
