Yeah that's a legit time, too. He just didn't look like a good runner. I don't know if that makes his tape more or less impressive. He looks quick on the field. Could be that he packed pn 15 pounds for the Combine and is slower because of it.

if we get him in the second round i could care less lol

I don't think you should take combine numbers as gospel as far as draft stock. It can definitely put some little known players on the map and confirm/put to rest any concerns you may have from game tape, but tape is where it's at.

At no time in any of their careers will any of those guys line up on the blocks. Some guys have amazing quickness and get up to top speed very fast, but just don't have that high of a top speed. For most LBs, that quickness is where it is and an average 40 time won't trump what you're seeing on game tape.

From what I've heard, most GMs have their boards set before the combine and typically don't change them too much after.
