To Lockette's advantage, faster -- and sometimes fastest -- is the manner in which he is most accustomed to operating.
A former Division II 200-meter national champion, and one of the nation's premier prep sprinters in high school, Lockette was clocked at 4.37 at the combine workouts. That tied for the fastest 40-yard time of any of the wide receiver prospects and was the fourth-best time of any of the players who auditioned in Indianapolis. It likely is his blistering speed that provides Lockette, who played only two college seasons and is considered by scouts to be very raw as a receiver and route-runner, a chance to stick with an NFL team.
