Does anyone know how fast Zeke is at the moment?

[SFloridaCowboy]

In the 10 yard sprint and the 40 yard sprint? What is his maximum running speed on longer runs?

 

[CWR]

I can't imagine he's faster than a 4.7, 4.8. I thought he was a 4.4 out of school, but the game has taken its toll.

[mardwin]

Slower than when he was here

 

[jwitten82]

Every play on the team except DL and OL are probably faster thsn him. He's a sucka

I wouldn’t want to have to outrun him to the morning donuts-put it that way. He can run when he has to.

 

[jazzcat22]

As long as he gets 1st downs and TD's. Who cares?

He will not get the break away long TD runs. But then again, how many do you really see from any RB? Not as many as some think they do.
However we still need that RB with speed and power.

If he gets the dirty yards, keeps the ball moving, gets those 5 to 10 yards runs. And gets a few 15 to 20 yards runs. That is good enough. Dowdle, maybe Peat has that speed to get some of the longer runs.

I would say he can run much faster than 95%, if not 100% on this board that are around his age, or younger.

When was the last time anyone timed themselves on the 40?

 

[Hadenough]

I think Zeke use to have 4.45 speed at the combine. He is so freaking slow now, I would have to guess 4.9 or even 5.0
Even that midget RB they drafted haa 4.6 speed. I think Dowdle is 4.5 and Davis is 4.6. What a slow group of RBs

 

[JBS]

I think he recently ate 10 pounds of wings in 9 mins and 52 seconds

Dude slow in the NFL is fast pedestrian. Zeke being faster than people in this forum ain't saying much. But those of us who are fortunate to be able see well with our own eyes can see that Zeke is pretty much done.

He ran a 4.47 at the 2016 Combine.

2000+ rushes later….likely 4.6+

He’s not as lean now. Added more muscle.

He’s a “power back” now.

Well, probably many on here need glasses or better ones. As we have no idea how fast he is.
He was not brought in to be that guy with break away speed. His role will not be that, as MM stated that his carries would be less than when he was here before.

Zeke would make a great fullback at this point in his career. That's not meant to be a knock but he can still catch, block and run but he just lacks speed.

yeah true. But I still think he can be an asset and mentor. Not just to the RB group but to the young OL as well.

Wasnt there just a thread recently where they said they believe he can be the lead back?

 

[Whyjerry]

5.3 to 5.5 if I had to guess.

This was where he was missed on short yardage situation and scoring in the red zone, inside the 5. 12 TD's were a lot to miss. Two instances when Pollard did not score, or could not, and Luepke's fumble against Miami, could have been won with Zeke in there.

I do not have high expectations of Zeke gaining 100 yards a game, heck maybe not even 60. But what he can do is keep the ball moving for 1st downs and TD's. Though there will be times he will be stopped as well. Unless the OL is improved.

There may have been. But was that from the JWB coming out of Jerry's lip service?

Pretty darn fast.
