Combine - QBs, RBs, and WRs

Hello Darren McFadden.  4.33 40, unofficially it was 4.27 and everybody freaked out.  As if 4.33 is too slow now.  Jamaal Charles 4.38, Mendenhall 4.45, Felix 4.46, and Jonathan Stewart rounds it out with a 4.48.  Chris Johnson of ECU led the pack, and the entire group of players thus far, with a scorching 4.24.  Cool him off, yo.

Mario Manningham runs eggZACKlee like me.  Same mechanics, burst, everything.  Only thing is, that's bad for him.  Last year I ran a 4.6 just dickin' around on the softball field.  Today he was clocked at 4.59 and 4.62.  Oh yeah, I forgot to mention I'm 30 YEARS OLD and haven't played sports in 12 years!!  Yeah, he didn't help himself at all today.  That's disappointing cuz I root for the Michigan guys.

D.J. Hall ran a 4.55.  That's a pretty good time for a "good route runner".  Keith Brown, had he kept his head on straight during his college career, could have put up some pretty good numbers at the combine.  Maybe we'll see him in the supplemental draft or AAFL.

As for the top dogs, DeSean Jackson hit 4.35, Andre Caldwell (surprisingly to me) hit 4.37 as did Will Franklin of Missouri and Dexter Jackson of Ap State, and Eddie Royal of Va Tech clocked in at 4.39, also doing the most bench reps of the wide receivers with 24.

As for QBs, who cares.  Josh Johnson of San Diego blazed a 4.55 though.

Keenan Burton of Kentucky boasted a 38.5" vert, Royal with a 36 and Limas Sweed hitting 35.

I got some drama in my life right now, so that's all you're getting today.  And no picture, either.

After reading your "Cool him off, yo" I take it you watch The Wire. Greatest ferking series ever.

To try and keep this on topic, Matt Ryan threw 19 INTs last year. That sucks. So will he.
Joker, not sure if you're still a Dolphins fan but what would you think about them drafting Ryan?

Never watch The Wire, I'm enough street as is.

Don't care one iota about the Dolphins anymore. No Marino, no Joker, so obviously it's been this way for a while. They could draft Ryan, but they pretty much need help everywhere. And with only one legit threat at WR coming into his second year, I see bad things next year. Even Ronnie Brown can't save a dying franchise.
