So which one of the workouts is accurate to you? Surely not the bench press or shuttle run.



None of them honestly

What does it matter? Is he gonna be catching jump balls in the end zone?

If he'd come to the combine around 225 he would've easily run a 4.45 or so. The kid is a freak and I'm not sure why some here, who've watched him for 3 years doubted him

The number of people who think the vertical is only so the scouts can figure out how high you can go is just painful to see.

You frickers call yourself football fans?

Ok... I'm just going to say... don't join a back and forth amongst two people and not take the prior conversation into account before putting your two cents in. Obviously you took the post you originally responded to, out of context, otherwise you would have realized why I brought speed into the equation.

And im going to say this is a message board where people jump in and out of conversations in every single thread. Pay attention to what a person posts.

This was my post...

Do you see the words..."WHERE I SAID"?

Good god. At no time did mention the 40 because i wasnt talking about the 40 being overrated. I was talking about the vertical jump and broad jump.
Reading comprehension is your friend.you and how were talking about the 40 being overrated and you mentioned the vertical and broad jump as being overrated. I said those two represent explosiveness. At no point did i says shite about 40 being overrated. The two sentences arent mutually exclusive.

Dude I get it... but It wasn't like I was coming out of left field with the speed thing. For fricks sake you are insufferable.

Where did I ever claim you had? Not everything is a personal attack. I know it is tough to believe, but you don't have to be offended when someone says something that you don't agree with.

When you join an ongoing conversation you join the WHOLE conversation... not just the little bit that you want to pull from it.

I'd've rather him come in at a better weight and run a better time. Remember this guy at 225 had track numbers on par with Hershel and Bo. He tends to blow up in the offseason I wish hedve taken it more serious and ran sub 4.5 but he caught the ball really well and that was a good sign. I don't get the ppl raving over a 4.51 40.

Not Bo but he was faster than Herschel.
His top end is better than his quickness. Not that he isnt quick. Imo anyway

Dalvin cook is considered the speedster and ran a 4.50 at 210. Lf at 240 ran a 4.51. That one of the fastest times.for someone 240 or above. Its not vernon Davis but its damn impressive.
