Jimmy Johnson built a multi-super-bowl defense predicated on leopard-cat speed. He approves this message. I swear I felt his breath on my neck while typing up this post.

- Micah Parsons is one of the fastest defenders in the league (4.39). And, LOL, Micah's no little-man corner or safety! (Speed killz.)

- Sam Williams is perhaps amongst three fastest 260 pound battleships in the galactic federation (4.46) (Speed killz.)

- Anthony Brown --he's so better than some clowns acknowledge- flashes electric speed you aren't keeping up with (4.35) (Speed killz.)

-Kelvin Joseph was one of the fastest in his draft class (4.35) (Speed killz, but then so does stupidity.)

- Stefon Diggs (4.46), Donovan Wilson (4.5), Kearse (4.6), aren't positionally elite in speed, but they ain't no slouch. LVE was top 20% of his class in speed.

-And then what landed in our lap from Planet Krypton? A speed-superman in the 5th round?!? Can Damone Clark out-run Micah? Early reports indicate: maybe!? (Speed killz.)

Where did you get Trevon Diggs’ forty from? He didn’t run it at the combine or his pro-day.

Hooker is another that looks pretty quick but I haven’t seen a 40 time.

You have Stefon down, instead of Travon FYI. Speed without purpose is not useful and not all have the ability to see that purpose without processing. I do agree with your sentiment.

Yes. Speed and effort makes up for a lot you may be lacking. They swarm on defense.

If they have so much speed, why do I see RB's running down the field so many times?

Speed is great, and swarming to the ball is great. But it leaves a defense vulnerable to counter treys, reverses and lateral passes to the back/vacated side, like Chicago did.

Expect to see it more.

Fastest defense since the JJ era.

Not too shabby but did you really put LVE into the convo?

Anthony Barr...2022 forty time 6.0...

There was a 3rd and 4 when the QB rolled left and Barr was in pursuit.

Damone Clark would have made that play but Barr was a step too slow.

At the end of that play is when Barr injured his hamstring but that was after the QB was out of bounds and not the reason he could get there in time.

Totally agree. Experienced this in high school. I scored 4 TD and my full back had 2 TD. Speed can be defeated with brains.
