I thought Wood looked quick and agile. As long as size is adequate, I'll take quick feet any day.

I could not agree more....I don't claim to be the world's greatest scout or anything, but I could even clearly see a difference between Wood and Unger as opposed to the rest of the lineman. I would love to see the Browns be able to land one of these guys in the 2nd. Big, agile, and looking like those boys could flat out rip some heads off, impressive to me.

Unger's not a good fit for the AFC North - he gets pushed back by big nose tackles.

Hakeem Nicks ran a 4.49; that's good enough to go in the late 1st Round.

Deon Butler/Penn State - 4.28, 4.29

He's not that great a player, but runs two sub 4.3s.

Deon, meet Al Davis.

? Aloysius

Brian Robiskie - 4.51, 4.49

Sammie Stroughter - 4.55, 4.56

Mike Thomas - 4.31, 4.34 very impressive

Derrick Williams - 4.58, 4.67 very disappointing

Louis Murphy - 4.36, 4.33

Hakeem Nicks - 4.49, 4.51

Jordan Norwood - 4.57, 4.66

Tiquan Underwood - 4.32, 4.33

Mike Wallace - 4.28, 4.38

Jaison Williams - 4.69, 4.64

Just for some perspective to temper these 40 times...Anquan Bolden ran a 4.72.....just sayin. Also Mike thomas fro AZ ran a 4.31 and Wallace from Ole miss ran a 4.28...wow...he had a td in the senior bowl.

I think the big winner so far is Heyward-Bey. With his size, running that fast? He's in round one for sure now. Maybe even the first WR taken behind Crabtree.

heckofajobbrownie

Lots of speed on display. Holy cow:

Harvin: 4.37

Heyward-Bey: 4.32

Murphy: 4.33

Ogletree: 4.37

Underwood: 4.32

Wallace: 4.28 (Hotty Toddy)

McKinley 4.33

Thomas: 4.31

I agree. It's a little disconcerting that he wasn't that productive in college, but part of that can be blamed on the ridiculously inept offense he was in. Guys like Everette Brown and Robert Francois had career games ripping through Maryland's o-line.

Average vertical for running backs: 36"

Rashad Jennings - 34"

Gartrell Johnson - 34"

Ian Johnson - 33"

Jeremiah Johnson - 35"

Quinn Johnson - 32"

Anthony Kimble - 36"

Marlon Lucky - 33.5"

Marcus Mailei - 35"

Knowshon Moreno - 35.5"

Robiskie is looking very good. So far he has shown that he has the best hands out of the receivers working out. He's probably confirmed himself as a second rounder...which means he's most likely off our radar.

Chris wells killed to Broad jump....don't for the life of me know wht they made him do it 5 times....it Burned him for his vertical jump...his legs were fried.

I figured Maclin would run in the 4.3 range (?). At this point, mid-4.4's looks pedestrian to me.

That's pretty freakin good for a guy with his hands and height mz the pussy. They were speaking about the Steelers staff saying this was the most impressive group of WRs in the 40 they've seen in years so being the mean of that isn't bad if you've got good hands and football skills.

I've seen Britt play and sometimes he looks REAL good and other times he has stonehands. I see a Michael Jackson type of consistency but his size is intriguing as Hell.

Nicks is a guy that's intriguing. And the commentators ALL liked Robiskie. I sort of feel good for the kid because he didn't have the best group of guys throwing him passes the last 2 years. If he goes to the right environment - he could be a steal for somebody like say a Buffalo who already has their SPEED guy in Lee Evans. They'd have 2 WRs that played high school ball in Cleveland.

Britt's a headcase. I'd pass on him.

Solon16

Can't believe the Times Moreno ran....talk about pedestrian....first attempt was 4.63 and a 4.55. Thought he's run much faster than that...wells ran a 4,57

Solon16

Brandon Tate a WR from UNC has injury was a dnp.... but could be a real Steal later rounds.

Solon16

Whoever said Shonne Green blew up to 300 lbs....way wrong... dude looked great at 227! Ian Johnson made lots of cash today second fastest rb.

We're on the same page. THAT was why I brought up the Michael Jackson consistency thing. I'm sick of guys dropping footballs to the volumes we've seen. Between, Northcutt and last season - we don't need another guy who struggles with consistency. Forget the 40s if they have stonehands - 1 Paul Hubbard is enough to carry.

- Tom F.

No RB's ran eye-opening times to me...although Moreno's 4.55 was suprising...thought he was much faster. Wells starting to grow on me more and more. Does (as someone said earlier) look like a young Jim Brown.

The rumor was that he ballooned to 300 during the year he was academically ineligible to play, not sometime between the Outback Bowl and today.
