good point. Looks like 4.37 was his unofficial time and his official 40 time is 4.46.

some other interesting factoids

Those four receivers were Calvin Johnson, Jonathan Baldwin, Matt Jones and Mark Harrison. Now those numbers don’t have any bearing on NFL success, but it goes to show the type of rare athleticism Harrison possesses.

Kansas City Chiefs’ Jeff Allen and Donald Stephenson are stronger, more confident thanks to offensive-line guru
By TEREZA. PAYLOR
(highlights)

“Individually, I knew I wasn’t where I wanted to be,” said Allen, who finished with a Pro Football Focus grade of negative-12 last season. “So I decided to do something about it.” Not long after that, offensive tackle Donald Stephenson dialed up Bentley, too. After spending 2013 as a swing tackle, Stephenson had already been told he’d be a full-time starter in 2014, and like Allen, he was determined to be ready.

Bentley said about 50 professional offensive linemen attended his center this spring, and he works hard to make sure they get their money’s worth. Each player participates in on-field workouts, strength training and meetings for the duration of their stay. Upon arrival, each receives an evaluation from Bentley, who is one of three people on staff who personally watch game film of each player. “He watches the film, he takes you through a functional moving test, sees what your weaknesses are, sees if you’ve got any joints that are weak, any knees, ankles, whatever,” Allen said. “You see chiropractors, you see a ton of specialists.”

While Stephenson and Allen were both high-round picks in 2012, they received different evaluations.

In Allen, Bentley saw a gifted player who needed to get stronger. “From my perspective, there was so much potential level on the tape that hasn’t been tapped,” Bentley said. “One of the biggest things for him was body composition, getting him in a position where you’re going to put on more muscle mass and lose body fat, which was naturally going to enhance what the Lord already gave him.” Allen, who is listed at 6 feet 4 and 307 pounds, said he now weighs around 315 pounds. He credited Bentley for nailing his nutrition down and Chiefs strength coach Barry Rubin for building a foundation for his strength gains.

Like Allen, Stephenson — who had a Pro Football Focus grade of negative-8.2 in 16 games last season — said he also got stronger after working with Bentley, who can apparently get creative in his workouts. But while Stephenson also made strength gains, Bentley also harped on the mental side of the game to the 6-foot-6, 312 pounder he affectionately calls “The Big Natural.” “When you have a guy that’s so gifted in terms of God-given ability, then you can also lose focus and lose the ability to really learn how to be a true master of your craft,” Bentley said. “The biggest thing with turning him into the best player he can be, just attention to detail and constantly focusing on the little things.”

Bentley’s program is year-round. He regularly watches tape and evaluates his clients in the regular season, and he makes sure he stays in touch with them. “We know what kind of players we can be, but you know, you get tired of people hearing people say you have potential,” Allen said. “Potential means nothing to me, same as Donald. Potential will get you fired. We’re just working on not having potential anymore and turning it into production.”

Hope the work with Bentley pays off.

Both Allen and Stephenson do have a shit load of potential, but neither have even begun touch it.

If they do, this O-Line does have a chance to be pretty good.

Agreed, that was good to read. Looking from the outside in we seem to think our OL and WR corps are weak. But I really think Dorsey and Reid are tapping players that can be developed into good players and that's what building a good foundation is all about. We have tons of probowlers on the defensive side. But we just need the rest of that 53 to be decent.

Mark Harrison is a training camp body. Calvin Johnson is the best WR ever.

Tyler Bray is a scrub.

Jamaal runs nothing like Reggie Bush.

Knile Davis runs nothing like Joique Bell.

Donnie Avery and Junior Hemingway are nothing like Golden Tate and Kevin Ogletree.

Anthony Fasano is nothing like Eric Ebron.

I'm glad they are doing the extra to get better, but its kinda of funny they are going to an outside source to get better . I think is says a lot of what they think of Andy Heck. If your offense line coach isn't a O-line guru then why the **** have him on the staff.
