Bowe ran a 4.40 at his Pro Day. Latimer put down a best 4.39 at his Pro Day after running a 4.44 on his first attempt. That's about as close as you can get.

There was some close competition on the 40 yd. Dash with Dwayne Bowe coming in at 4.40 with Craig Davis close behind with a 4.41 on his second run. Russell clocked in at 4.83, not too shabby for his size.

As I said, I think he's a poor man's Dwayne Bowe. That 4.39 (best case) doesn't translate to the field very well. He can't separate like Beckham or Moncrief. And he's not as good a receiver as Matthews, Norwood, Street, Robinson or the like.
If I'm taking a fast guy with size, I'd much rather have Moncrief way, way before Latimer and Bryant easily before him as well.
He got a third round grade by the NFL advisory board and was only Honorable Mention on the coaches team in his conference.
Dude is stiff. I think he's a #3 WR in the NFL due to his inability to separate and delays in getting into his breaks. Like I said, Indiana really only used him as an outside go and fade guy. He doesn't look like he's got the physical agility to maneuver against NFL level corners.
