I'm guessing that there is some problem with getting a consistent start because of different heights of the player (i.e. what part of the body triggers the start). However, I am sure they have that figured out in the track and field world. It seems stupid relying on the reflexes of some schmo sitting at the starting line to start the clock, especially when you consider the difference in money that a tenth of a second could mean.

What was Revis's 40 jw? I think we are overrating 40 times just a bit.

Revis ran a 4.38, so not a good comparison.

They're all posted on NFL.com but you can find them on NFLDC pretty easily.

And for the record Revis didn't workout at the combine.

If Berry ran a 4.6 I would still want him at #5. 40 times are overrated

Exactly. You can't compare a hand time at a different event to a combine time. Plus whose time are people talking about? His agent? There are 30 people taking times at pro days crowded around the finish line at different angles. There is no way in hell the 30 people all end up with nearly the same time.

Haden was on ESPN radio today. He said he was wearing the wrong cleats and was having back problems. Even with a sore back he decided to run. He also says he expects to run a 4.3 on his Pro day on March 17th. If he runs a 4.3 he moves back into the top 7.

I have to believe so. We are talking one-tenth of a second. I know corners need catch up speed, but is a tenth of a second going to matter to a CB who is out of position, falls or bites on the out move? Give me a smarter, more agile football player and I'll not care about a tenth or two.
What was Flowers speed at the combine? Anyone remember? |
