News: Henry Runs 4.51 Elliot Runs 4.46

[Thatkidbob]

I would be shocked if Henry wasn't there at 34, and I'd be even more shocked if we took him.

I'm not quite there with you, but I don't love Henry as much as some of folks here seem to...

Once he gets going he's a hard guy to tackle, but if he doesn't have time to get up to speed he goes down easy. Not just that, but it seems like it's easy to trip him up... His balance is really poor. He still falls forward for yards (because he's huge) but I'd much rather have Ezekiel Elliott.

Did you specifically edit out the part where I said I would take him in the second and I am not worried about his physical ability at all?

I wouldn't call Coker "crappy". He's going to get drafted.

I though you wanted the Henry from Pig Suey, not this one, my bad.

And as they say in the south, "That Coker is dumber than a mud fence!"

Oh, I'm not saying I wouldn't want him on the Cowboys. I wouldn't mind it.

I'm just saying that the RB position has been largely devalued across the NFL so I don't see 2 RBs going in the first, and that the Cowboys have expressed the desire for McFadden to be the main guy again next year.

just watched draft show. Dane mentioned Henry 3 cone was not good. He finished with bottom group that mostly consisted of fullbacks. This shouldn't surprise anyone but I would not be shocked if he slips to 3rd round.

I luvz me sum Henry (reminds me of ZMurray) and Elliot is a BEAST, yes- this years Gurley....except he can't catch a cold and doesn't break a 4.3....still he's worth a top 15 and with todays performance he will.

ZEKE is the safest pick in the Draft after Tunsil.

there is a place for him in a NFl team but he is not a complete Back in the NFl,he cant juke people out of he gets touched in the backfield like somebody like Zeke or AD.3rd Rd is a good place to pick him.

40 does not mean squat when it comes to pure speed... People make such a big deal out of it when humans reach peak speed around 60m. If I'm concerned with a players quickness I'll concern myself with their shuttle time 40 means absolutely nothing if they're running 4.6 and under

 

[Floatyworm]

THOSE 40 TIMES WERE BOGUS. ADD @ LEAST 2 /10TH TO EVERY TIME...EVERY ONE OF THOSE TIMES WERE CLOCKED @ THE 38 YARD MARKER....I'LL POST PICTURES TOMORROW TO PROVE IT

 

[Shinaoi]

I would love to draft one of these guys. No way at #4, but the way I see it, the Cowboys have spent valuable picks to build a great line. We need that dynamite running back to complete the package. Right now we're like an expensive shiny cannon but shooting lousy ammunition.

 

[Floatyworm]

Please explain to me how a time can be "unofficial" when a guy hasn't even finished his 40? Every single 40 time yesterday should be thrown out the window....

Or @ least add 2 or 3/10ths of a second to each time.....

All these pictures were taken during the live running of the event

Talk about the league having an agenda to make these players look great....BUSTED

Do they show times for the first 10 yards? That was one of the main concerns -- explosiveness/initial quickness (and his hillbilly teeth).

Definitely surprised by his speed.

I think they have a different drill for this, for an overall type deal. but is for quickness, agility and such. I forget right now what it is composed of.
I don't think they break down the first 10 yards of a 40. not sure what that may accomplish. As many plays are set up to develop as to just flat out take off running. But I know what point you are making though. And somewhat agree, it would be nice to see that just as another comparison.

Lmao those are unofficial times for a reason, they were hand timed by an nfln guy, players get to self start so and the official time is started and stopped when he breaks the laser, also we can't tell from your screen grabs if you are watching the live part or the millionth run through they showed.

You're funny

Floaty, can you analyze the Zapruder footage for me? I have a few questions.

 

[Risen Star]

O.M.G.

 

[Silver N Blue]

but watch his 3 cone drill and then it hits you...he won't create much but wouldn't be problem in Dallas.

That is the key he has no wiggle and his hands are not on the same level as Zeke. Zeke is complete.

In the Prosise picture top left...live TV

But your missing my point. How can you possibly post the time of the run...before the race is even finished???? And this is live TV.....

I believe I read somewhere there is a slight lag in the video before it's broadcast.

 

[Sydla]

Plus in the end, if everyone is 2/10ths slower it doesn't matter. Because in reality it's a comparison between players not times. So CJ Prosise might actually have run a 4.56 but then Elliott ran a 4.66.

It's all relative.

You have no point because you are complaining about unofficial times and you don't understand how television works. You need to smoke a bowl and relax cause I can't imagine how worked up you have to be to screen grab multiple 40s and just be so outraged at a hand timed # when you know that a laser keeps the real time and is posted 90 seconds later

Both guys are going to be really good.
