'26 TN ATH Joel Wyatt

[volstudent26]

Squirrel White ran a 4.37 in high school. And NFL draft buzz says he ran a 4.28 but I'm not sure if that is true but he is who I was referencing having 4.3 speed but he seemed to struggle a bit this season with injury and some drop issues. Wyatt is 5-6 inches taller than squirrel so having that speed is impressive but so much of that position is about route running and slight body movements. would be interested to see Cam Seldon be used as a receiving back sometime as well given his 4.2 or 4.3 speed and experience as a WR in HS. But he has some development to work on with running lower and staying balanced.

2/3 of the people touting 4.2-4.3 speed miraculously lose .2 when they get to the combine

Wyatt doesn’t run 4.3. And he’s not going to play WR in college.

Supposedly Eric Berry ran a 4.35 in HS
NFL Combine he ran 4.47

Very few people can actually run 4.3

I'd bet my real life house that neither White nor Seldon run a 4.2. Have you ever seen that speed on display from either guy? Good players, but that kind of speed is super rare.

not really Wright is a 4.3 guy who may have been capable of a high 4.2 Sampson as well is a mid 4.3 guy. I think a lot of the guys that run 4.3's at the combine have run high 4.2's before but don't do it reliably. I'm confident white can run a high 4.2 or low 4.3 although that speed doesn't help white if he get jammed at the LOS and then 40 times don't always translate to on field speed. If I remember correctly Seldon ran a 4.27 at a pretty respected camp but its been awhile since I looked at it.

Well, the most respected camp of all time (the NFL Combine) has only seen like 15 people ever do it in its 43 year history.

Speculating that several guys who have run in the 4.3s might be capable of hitting the 4.2s is hardly proof of anything.

If you want to believe it's commonplace, I won't spend time talking you out of it.

You don’t watch the combine…

Just take a bit and google some typical 40 times.
