i'm just saying, Julio was this big 220 lb WR, and Ark had these speedy guys. Except by the tale of the tape Julio was a good bit faster. Maybe that shite is part of the reason Ark hasn't been Bama since 06'

It may not be the most functional exercise, but it shows how strong you are at pressing movements. A strong bench = strong chest and strong triceps...which defenintely come in handy when you need to push someone away from you to create seperatio
But bench press is very misleading in determining strength.
For one you are bressing against the bench so it doesnt factor in core strength which is much more important in football.
Secondly, players with shorter arms have an advantage in bench pressing. Show me a position in Football where having short arms is an advamtage.

Taylor 4.5
Kirkpatrick 4.43 and 4.53
He seemed to be slow outof the gate for the first ten yards on his 2nd attempt.

one observation about high school times and the NFL times for the same guys. in most cases the high school 'guy' weighed 20 lbs less. My college roommate ran a sub 10 second 100 yard dash as a 9th grader in a meet in Lake Charles. He never came close to that again.
The truth is very simple. High School times are wrong.
The Truth About Speed, NFL Combines and the 40 Yard Dash!
Speed is the stuff of urban legend. Deion Sanders supposedly showed up at the NFL Combine, ran a 4.2 and went home. We routinely hear of high school kids who purportedly run 4.3's and 4.4's.
The stories of "reported" speed have gotten out of control. This would not be a problem in and of itself. Most of us could look at it and say "so what" people lie or people embellish. The real problem is that the lies seem to be setting the standard. One of the reasons that I no longer train athletes for the NFL Combine is the unrealistic expectations of athletes and agents based on these "urban legends".
Here's another angle on the whole "speed" thing. Ben Johnson and Carl Lewis ran split times of 4.67 for 40 meters.
The split times are below.
1.84 10 yd
2.86 20 (1.02 split)
3.8 30 (.94 split)
4.67 40 (.87 split)
40 meters is 43.74 yards. This would make the distance approximately ten percent further. This means we could reduce the time by approximately .36 seconds to account for the additional 3.7 yards. This would mean that in constant acceleration mode the best sprinters in the history of the world, using blocks, ran 4.31 for 40 yards. Does it seem plausible that high school football players can run faster times without blocks? No, it's impossible.

Lots of bullshite on that list. Just like any other list that reports 40 times that aren't laser times.

Mo Claiborne - 4.50
Slower than I expected, but he has football speed. I still think he's the #1 corner. You have to think that the NFL scouts love his ball skills and value his return ability.
On a side note, I'd love to see Onterio McCalebb get invited next season just so we can see how fast he runs the 40. I have no doubt it'll be in the 4.3 area. He might even set himself up to be drafted, although it isn't likely.

Has Casey Heyward, CB from Vandy, ran yet?
Posted on 2/28/12 at 1:47 pm to TTsTowel
4.57

LB 232 Ryan Baker LSU 4.88
Guy was a Special Teams beast his first two years here as a gunner. He slipped on his 40 time. Not sure why they're counting that pass as his official time.

DL 298 Fletcher Cox MSU 4.79
absolute beast. State will miss him for sure, I don't care what their DL class looked like. No one is replacing him this year.

Just saw it, not too bad. I hope Denver grabs him in the 2nd or 3rd round. I wouldn't be opposed to grabbing Mark Barron in the 1st if we don't grab someone on the DLINE.

I think Dallas gets either Kirkpatrick or Barron.
Posted on 2/28/12 at 2:01 pm to UASports23
I don't see Barron going at #14, so I'll lean towards Kirkpatrick...

It is Dallas. You never know.
Dallas gave up what 54 draft picks for Roy Williams ? Dallas and Oakland are weird.
