Can someone please helpout and post 40 times for our wide receivers.

I also believe Dez is our least quick receiver. Not sure how to back that up with stats...maybe the cone drill numbers?

Injuries also play a role. Cone times during the combine dont take into account how players move in pads, age, and injuries.

Some players workout great in shorts but put the pads on their times are slowed. This effects certain players more than others.

Not the slowest, but he's not explosive off the line, and he runs lazy routes.

He also tires quickly. I think it's because he spends so much emotional energy before the game and in the first half.

They need to figure out ways to get him isolated more.

Antonio brown is going to go down as one of the best all time wrs. The cowboys are a fringe playoff team with their Qb...who is out right now. People need to stop comparing them to the all time greats.

Slowest as far as running? no
Slowest as far route running and turning? Before injury? No. After injury? Seems like it.

Dez ran a 4.52 at the combine but would have a tough time running under 4.60 now. He played faster than he timed earlier in his career. He had a catch and run up the sidelines for a TD a few years ago and a defender had an angle on him and he ran right past him. He can't run like that anymore.

Amazing how Antonio brown goes up against josh Norman, Deangelo Hall all game with safety help and still wreaks havoc all over the place

AB is definitely the best. His coaches make it difficult on the opponent as well by moving him around in formations and with the assortment of routes he runs.

And he's the best twerker I've seen in a live football game. LOL

He doesn't have the burst off the line of scrimmage he once had and can't get out of his breaks as quick, it was very noticeable during Sundays game.

Dez gets very little separation. He is a big target though so separation is not important in his case.

Dez isn't in AB's league. Dez will be hard pressed to gain elite status.

Dez had elite status after the 2014 season practically everyone had him in their top 5 receivers but not anymore. He's going to have a difficult time putting up a 1000 yards this season. Imagine Antonio Brown came out in the same draft with Dez as a 5th round pick.

These guys couldn't catch him... How fast are they?

I meant regain but the point still stands. Right now he is just anther guy who is vastly overpaid.

Lol... He breaks his foot.... Comes back and plays on it. Plays 1 game during a new season... "He can't run anymore".


What kind of logic did you use to come up with that?
