Was I supposed to type something here?
Look at his posture and body angle on that run: That's pure Olympic Sprinter form!

Ironically 23.47 was my exact high school time for the 100 meters
I can never understand why at the NFL combine or pro days they time the players in the 40 wearing T-shirts and shorts rather than full padsmax actually ran a faster 200m time in high school, but right now i am taking derius in a straight foot race
derius is one of those rare players whose track speed translates to how he plays football
Isn't one of the freshmen Slot WR's, that's Redshirting (Major Everheart, D J Allen) a "track" guy? How fast are they (for next year)?max actually ran a faster 200m time in high school, but right now i am taking derius in a straight foot race

Have wondered the same thing. It makes no sense.I can never understand why at the NFL combine or pro days they time the players in the 40 wearing T-shirts and shorts rather than full pads

They could run it naked or they could run it with a 25 pound weight on their back and the result would be the same. Whoever runs the fastest is the fastest. It’s just a baseline number. As long as it’s historically constant so they have context it works just fine.Have wondered the same thing. It makes no sense.
All the money on the line and all the ridiculous things they measure and make the players do to supposedly be able to analyze every aspect of their being, and they don't do this basic thing.

I don't think it's too unreasonable to think some guys are able to run and move around easier in pads than others, for whatever reason. Maybe how they are built or something, I don't know, but I doubt if you have 10 guys race in compression shorts and then have them race in pads you're going to have the exact same 1-10 finish. And when you're talking about a tenth or even a fraction of a second sometimes making a big difference in where guys are drafted, every little bit counts.They could run it naked or they could run it with a 25 pound weight on their back and the result would be the same.

You swam 23+ mph??? Impressive.That was about the same time as my best 50 freestyle.

Didn't think that one through. As Rosann Roseannadanna would say, "Never mind"You swam 23+ mph??? Impressive.
5 new plays that no one on the planet has seen!Can we get Davis, Miller, and Jackson in the backfield for a few plays? Whomever takes the ball, it's gonna be awesome.
You want DD to get in trouble for domestic violence?All kidding aside, I seriously hope that after that display of absurd talent, Riley & Meach are working hard to feature DD prominently in the offense. A little national-level marketing of a special talent like that could do wonders for eyeballs and recruiting. Seems like Okie Lite got a bounce in attention when they had Tyreek Hill.
At the same time, we have so many incredible weapons on offense, that we obviously need to spread it around to give everyone a chance. I guess the only fair thing to do is to score about 60 points a game to give everyone their due. Now, 60 is an arbitrary number, and there are bound to be "off" weeks, so probably should start out this week with around 75 or so to take the pressure off.
