Combine RB Thread

[casmith07]

LaMichael James and Chris Rainey tied for the best 40-time, 4.37.

David Wilson just ran a 4.40 and a 4.43.

I like a lot of these RBs. I think it's a pretty decent class.

I reaaaally like Doug Martin. In prep for the zone draft, I researched as much as I could about him. He ran a 4.47 today. I believe he will be very similar to Ray Rice/Maurice Jones-Drew. If we could somehow get a 2nd round draft pick for Felix Jones, I would make it happen.

 

[Gaede]

Me too , JonJon...He looks like a player

James' 10 yard split was 1.60? That's higher than Mike Ball (1.59) who ran a 4.56... Something doesn't add up.

It could just mean that Ball has more explosiveness or acceleration but not more top speed than James. Trust me... when I ran track, I would be faster than anyone in the first 20 meters, but some guys just had more top speed and would catch up, lol.

One of the rb's has massive arms. Robert Turbin from Utah State. He looks huge

Yeah I mean obviously that's an option, I'm just surprised. That's really slow acceleration for such a light guy.

He's a beast. We don't need him, but some team will.
