Not to math-dork out here, but if you have two guys who measure similar 40 times, and both are running towards one point.. if one starts 15 feet behind that point (5 yards-- J.Best as HB), and the other starts 5 feet behind that point (1.6yd --TMays).. and they meet one yard before the LOS.. how does that really prove anything? It's straight-line speed, and it's about what you'd expect.. nothing a safety's expected to do is displayed there. I just don't understand how that's a compliment to Mays as a safety.
