A couple fo tenths shaved off their forty time is a huge difference in dollars. Can’t these guys or their agents pay for speed training?

If you take a player who runs a 4.3 and Maddog him, he is at least left running 4.6. If you take a slower player that runs a 4.6 coming in, he might forget how to move forward all together.

Cedric Dockery is looking fat and I expect Huey to end up taking a large majority of the snaps by the end of next season. Shipley and The Quan look to have average speed now too.

His 40 time was also the slowest of all the receivers in attendance. Man that's a funny line if it wasn't so sad....what a wasted opportunity Billy Pittman ran a 4.76 at the combine making him the only receiver that Marcus Griffin could conceivably cover.

We had 2 first round draft picks and another playing nickel in the NFL and according to the great Duane Akina, Griffin was our best DB. It's a wonder he is still coaching let alone was promoted to DC for a year. There is a reason why our pass defense was so bad that year and don't even get me started about this past year. Our secondary reminded me of the Mackovic days. Exactly Nordberg.
