Was hoping D Williams would clock in closer to 4.5

Truly can't see us spending a pick on a RB unless it's a comp pick in the third day. Seems like you can find some street FA's who would do just as fine.

Jesus, every Cowboy mock drafter in the land is picking Justice Hill for us now...

I knew my boy Gaskin was going to run slow. I'm surprised Henderson was only a 4.5 guy. Edit* As I type it, he runs a 4.37 on his second run. I thought he stumbled a bit on his first run.

A lot of the backs I was interested in ran slow; I wonder how far they stretch now?

I would pick this guy in a second if he fell to 58, and we are desperate at D Line I know.

I will say Gaskin is faster on tape and pads. Wasn't getting caught in the Pac-12 this year from behind.

My pet cat David Montgomery ran a 4.63 at 5'10 222. Doing the math, that's a Speed Score of 96.6.

You usually want to see a Speed Score of over 100, and using a bit of algebra, he would have needed a 4.59 to hit that threshold. I would have liked to see him crack the 4.5s in general, as speed was always the question with him in college and it's fair to wonder if he can beat NFL linebackers to the edge. He's a slippery dude inside, but one-note inside runners are a dime a dozen in the pros.

Dude also had a 28" vertical, which is really sad for an RB, and a 10' 1" broad jump that's about average.

A serious question Steve Smith asked the panel today while workouts were going on.

"Is there a workout that could drop your stock?"

 

[John813]

Singletary improving his 40 run to 4.55 is good for his stock. Didn't expect him to crack 4.5X

Edit, then I see his run still at 4.66 elsewhere...

 

[DFWJC]

Well, right or wrong, Justice Hill made himself some money today.
Darryl Henderson too
Maybe Mike Weber too.

That's disappointing for Montgomery

Henderson is fun to watch. Some team's going to be happy

Gimme Rodney Anderson

Henderson from Memphis is my pet cat.

It's a pretty underwhelming group of RBs but don't underestimate our front office's Lance Dunbar fetish. They probably will look for some undersized 3rd down back who can catch the ball.

 

[Gaede]

I'm watching punter and kicker 40s.

I really have to take an assessment of my life.

I'm surprised this doesn't have more likes!

 

[unionjack8]

Its started.

So many media types with their measurable webs slighting good football players.

Watch the damn games

 

[Mr_437]

Travis Homer could be a late round RB3.
