Defensive Backs Combine Numbers

Talib is the big question mark now after those 10 reps on the bench.

He probably won't be there at 22. Right now, he's the fastest kid in the building. Just like speed raised Hall's stock, you think 21 teams will pass on the "second coming" of Antonio Cromartie after his season last year?

Talib ran a 4.48 though, so much for everyone saying he's slow as dirt. And a 38" vert, some people are gonna have to eat some crow about his athleticism.

Talib, 4.48

Has he always used that hyphenated name or did he just add that for the draft???

Time: 4.28 DRAFT HIM!

No way this kid escapes the first round at this point. Holy crap.

Wow!!!!

Wow, Talib runs a 4.48 40, and had a 38'' (or 48'') vertical jump. Wow, explosive! If he shows well in the agility drills, he'll erase any doubts that he's a true CB and he'll go high.

There's no stopping Cowboys Blog's infatuation with Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie now! The kid just clocked a 4.28 in the 40-yard dash, which continues what has been an unbelievable postseason for the Tennessee State corner.

For more on Cromartie, go here.

Wonder what Jerry's thinking now? How could he pass on Antonio's cousin after passing up on Antonio himself hurned him two years ago? This kid is cementing his spot in the first round, and justifying every nice thing we've said about him.

I reasoned to one NFC GM earlier in the week that Kenny Phillips was the only safety worthy of a first-round grade -- the next in Miami line that includes former first-rounders Ed Reed, Brandon Meriweather and the late Sean Taylor. Phillips, by the way, just ran an unofficial 4.55.

The GM pointed me to NC State's DaJuan Morgan as a physical marvel who could sneak into the Top 32.

Well, turns out this guys was on the money. He did 21 reps on the bench and ran a 4.52 40, according to the Network numbers.

Cromartie's stock just flew through the roof!

Exciting stuff.

it's possible, just saying that all hopes of taking Cromartie at 28 are done

I actually hope that Cromartie's success pushes McKelvin to us at 22

I'm hoping like heck he's there at 22 AND that Jerry takes him, I'm scared to look at the mocks and see how many teams need CB before us.

We need to do whatever it takes to draft DRC because not only is he lightning fast, but he put up 17 reps on the bench, which is amazing considering he only weighs 185. Jerruh, DO IT!!!

Talib? He'll be there at 22. And I hope we DON'T take him, unless Jenkins, DRC, Cason, and McKelvin are all gone.

Did Mike Jenkins run?

[DaBoys4Life]

aqib talib fell from my graces but now he is back still dont think he's within our grasp after this perfomanced and the bpwl games. 4 CB's will go in the top 20 MIke Jenkins DRC Leodis MCkelvin and Aqib Talib
