Going to have to come up big on the second one of he wants to beat the Worthy time.

The Exciting White RB not run a 40?

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Luther Burdens forty was nice and all but what is surprising to me is the guy is actually 6 foot tall. I though for sure he would be an inch or two short than that. I'm not on board with him at 12 but his size is more ideal than I thought it would be.

Golden with a 4.3 forty may have just got my interest at 12. I already liked him but he may be a legit deep threat and intermediate receiver. Blazing fast was not on my mind but I guess now I know why he could get so open.

Also Higgins with a 4.47 at like 6'4" 220 pounds and being ultra productive is really impressive too.

What did he run?

NVM, saw it was 4.41.

I said a few weeks ago that if Golden ran in the 4.3's he'd really be in the conversation at 12 once you got after the top tier of prospects who really shouldn't be there at 12 (Jeanty basically).

At 4.29...yea, strong consideration.

Jarquez Hunter ran way faster than I thought, I thought he was a tough battering ran but with that speed he could be a starter early on.

If Jeanty is there I'm still taking him but we could get a starter in the 3rd without trying.

The thing with Golden is he was one hell of a clutch receiver. Far from just a deep threat. So the speed isn't really driving the stock on this thing. He was a hell of a receiver and the 40 just tells you there is probably even more potential with the guy.

I'm a little behind, but Will Howard and Gabriel looking pretty rough IMO.

Yea that's what I said a few weeks ago, he's a really good route runner and is very dynamic at the catch point. He made a ton of plays this year in contested 50/50 situations and you don't really see that out of speed guys like him.

I might take him over McMillan.

The 40 yards dash.

Most overrated football drill EVER.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

I haven't kept up with it, but why wasn't Golden rated higher before?

Most have had him in the 20's, once I watched him I started thinking he should go somewhere around 15-20.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Jaxson Dart throwing pretty well but he gives off major douchbag vibes. Like the classic 80s movie rich asshole kid.

Pretty much sums it up for me. He's not a slam dunk by any means there but I think he's firmly in the conversation and I might even take him over McMillan given how badly we need speed on offense.

Overrated if there isn't legit production backing it up.

I would. Maybe a bias of mine, but I'm wary of these big guys who don't get a lot of separation.

Yeah overrated if Bond ran that forty for example. Not great WR whose whole calling card is blazing speed. But there is a point to measuring how fast a dude is. It can be helpful.
