its called football speed

chevis' speed has always been questioned

we are talking a tenth of a second

which is like a step or 2. that's a big difference

good fundementals make up for that

at CB? CBs are the position that require the physical ability most.

I think we all know CB is the hardest position in football. But I believe what he meant was that they had good fundamentals. (ie. Contact on the line, keeping hips lined up with recievers, and basically running stride for stride against some of the best in the league. That's not to say they will make a huge impact in the NFL, but if they can improve their speed, both have a great shot.

CB is weak this year...i think aslong as jackson didnt turn in a 4.7 like simeon castille, he's still on track for an early 3rd, possibly late 2nd selection

theres nothing wrong with 6'0'' 180, 36'' vertical, 4.58, long arms

in other news, rodgers-cromartie- 4.33

nothing wrong with any of that other than the 4.6

you know how many man-corners in the NFL are runnings 4.6s? he's likely been cornered to tampa 2 teams

but i still don't know where he gets drafted. marlin jackson ran a 4.5 and went in the first to indy. he is a lot like chevis

DRC, Aqib Talib, Leodis McKelvin, and Mike Jenkins all had really good combines.

I mean Josh Barrett came in weighing 223 lbs at 6'1" and ran 4.32
