I am not saying it's hate. I am saying its wrong.

Jefferson wasn't highly recruited because of his grades. Not his fake 4.88 40 time

So what conspiracy theory was involved in sabotaging Justin Jefferson's 40 time?

He looks 4.65 to me but plays like a 4.5.

It's not a sabotage. high school 40 times are never accurate.

Depending on the camp and equipment, they are always either super fast or super slow.

He's a 4.50-4.55 runner on tape. No one will say "oh wow thats fast", or "oh wow he is too slow to play in the league". They will just know that that is plenty fast enough to play in the NFL

Marshall. The reason he doesn't look like he's running fast is because he's so fluid. The more refined he becomes the more dominant he will be. The great ones make it look easy and he getting there in a hurry.

This is why I would say Palmer is the fastest. But who really cares. Jefferson is a technician and one hell of a football player. Can't wait for the Jefferson grandchildren to play in Tiger Stadium!

Rouge, if i started a thread saying Clyde Edwards-Helaire is a 4.47 runner, it would get laughed and downvoted into oblivion

Even with technology there are still issues with accuracy

Marshall easily and it's not as close and some think. Chase and Jefferson arent "fast" receievers in terms of running a 40.

Jefferson has incredible game speed, but his biggest asset which makes him seem much faster than he is is his route running. When you can leave a DB 3 yards behind you due to route running alone, that's impressive.

Marshall ran a 4.53 verified 40 at an opening event, Chase and Jefferson tested a good bit slower than that.

CEH ran that 40 about 25 pounds lighter than he is now. Dude bulked up a lot and uts clear he doesnt have that extra gear at his size now with pads on.

Im looking at the profile now from the opening. 201 lbs. That wasn't 25lbs ago bubba.



Here's another one:

LSU commitment Derrius Guice runs a 4.35 in the 40-yard dash at Tigers' camp


Guice was a 10.92 100m guy. Those guys dont run 4.35 lol


Leonard Fournette on the other hand, was a 10.6 100m guy.

4.40 at like 240lbs. Leads the NFL his rookie year in fastest mph recorded by a player.

Our receiver strengths are complimentary. They all can catch.

Marshall- strait line speed, big target

Chase - ball skills, high pointing the ball (reminds me of L. Treadwell)

Jefferson - route running, getting open
