This only confirms my belief that Taylor Mays

[Brasky]

Is the finest physical specimen at Safety you will ever see. He ran a 4.2 40 today.

 

[jedburks]

Too bad he will ultimately be a CB in the NFL. He isn't physical enough to be a safety.

Jed i'm not sure I just read what you typed correctly.... NOT PHYSICAL ENOUGH!!!????

His official 40 time was 4.43

 

[Brasky]

4.24 was his unofficial hand time apparently

 

[jedburks]

I am sorry, I had a brain fart and switched my college safeties. Eric Berry is the one that will probably move to CB and isn't physical enough to play safety..

Taylor Mays is a guy that can hit but can't cover a WR the way the elite safeties can like an Ed Reed can. Not saying that he sucks but he is a little one dimensional.

what did larry run

He ran a 4.67

ek..... not good

 

[iruletheskool]

there's a difference between football speed and 40 speed, but 4.67 is not good... hopefully he gets a shot though.. as for the thread, I don't understand why this was posted in the nebraska board.. I don't give a shit about taylor mays

 

[landon410]

i agree.... sounds like someone has a man crush on mays

i tried to move the thread to the general board but cant, and dont feel like deleting it

 

[iruletheskool]

meh, lets just hijack it and talk about Larry.. I honestly think he's a practice squad safety at best in the NFL, love the way he played here, I just don't know if he's got enough talent and the right head.. If I had to pick one, I'd say O'Hanlon got a shot before Larry did.

 

[Brasky]

larry also ranked about 35th in the bench press with 14 I think. I haven't heard a word about Dillard. What the hell.

 

[landon410]

thats odd because asante looks huge

 

[AHFox]

the 40 is in a strait line. How a db can backpedal/plant/turn and get to the ball to me is more important than how fast a kid is in a strait line how fast is that kid at 10 yards and 20 yards. Mays has got a lot of question marks about his instincts as a football player he's more of an athlete than football player. I see him as a bust.

larry also ranked about 35th in the bench press with 14 I think. I haven't heard a word about Dillard. What the hell.

Lincoln Journal Star- "As for Dillard, the 6-foot, 245-pound linebacker had a 40 time of 4.64 seconds, which was one of the better times among his position group. His bench results were not immediately available.

If they so choose, both Asante and Dillard will have a chance to improve their testing numbers later this month at Nebraska’s Pro Day."

 

[landon410]

4.64 for Dillard isnt bad, i was thinking he would be a 4.7 guy

Asante needs to only work on speed for the pro day, he NEEDS to get his 40 time down
and yes i agree 40 speed is not football speed, but if he wants to get drafted in the first handful of rounds he needs to do it

 

[Brasky]

I didn't realize mid 4.6's were fast for LB's...
