FULLBACK RUNS LIKE A WIDEOUT
Every year, there are guys not invited to the Scouting Combine who, well, should have been.
This year, one glaring omission might have been fullback Matt Pagel of Wisconsin-LaCrosse. The 5'11", 238-pounder recently ran, we're told, a blazing 4.38 in the 40, timed with three watches.
Of the fullbacks who ran at the Combine, the fastest was Texas A&M's Keith Joseph, who ran a 4.69. All of the others were above 4.8.
Pagel's time also was faster than each of the running backs who ran the 40 at the Combine. Then again, the track at the RCA Dome is notoriously slow.
Still, 4.38 for a fullback is impressive on any track, including a ski slope.
