Taylor Martinez Ran a 4.28 40

[Brasky]

@Nebraska pro-day.

I'll try and keep posting 'em as they come out, but the only way to find them out is if the players decide to share.

 

[chucksker]

That was according to his family

 

[Brasky]

According to the LJS and directly from the mouth of Taylor.

 

[Red_Alert]

His foot's better? lel

 

[Fumble_Rooskie]

40 time: 4.28, 4.35
Vert: 39"
Broad Jump: 10'9"
Shuttle: 3.81

just what I saw being discussed on other boards...

 

[NickVT10]

I'd take any 40 time that comes from a school event with a grain of salt. Every year you hear of guys at the combine running 4.3s at their school then run a 4.45 on an official electrically timed run.

 

[Brasky]

Taylor can run 4.2's. Fact.

 

[chucksker]

^only in your imagination dude

 

[Brasky]

LMAO chuck why you such a wet blanket?

Taylor has said many many times that he runs in the 4.25-4.3 range. Is that really so hard to believe?

It's like you want the time to be wrong or something. You would prefer he ran slower.

 

[Tomhusker]

Chuck still made cuz Taylor turned him down when Chuck was hittin' on him.

 

[tometom]

I'd bet someone hand held him at that. electronic was probably a little higher. when/do they release this info?

NFL.com reporting a 4.45

Taylor Martinez played quarterback at Nebraska — starting 43 games at the position during four seasons with the Cornhuskers — but might be a man without a position as an NFL draft hopeful.

Martinez (6-foot 1/4, 201 pounds) ran the 40-yard dash in 4.45 and 4.6 seconds. He had a 39-inch vertical jump and 10-foot-9 broad jump. He had a 20-yard short shuttle time of 4.03 seconds and did the three-cone drill in 6.85 seconds. All of those numbers with the exception of the three-cone would have either been the best among quarterbacks or matched the best among quarterbacks at the NFL Scouting Combine.

Martinez worked out as a quarterback, wide receiver and defensive back at Nebraska’s pro day. Some NFL team will have to take a look at Martinez and decide what to do with him because he’s such a gifted athlete.

Meanwhile SJB is gettin dat money.

Stanley Jean-Baptiste, CB (6-2 7/8, 213) — Jean-Baptiste ran the 40 in 4.48 and 4.45 seconds, had a short shuttle time of 4.27 seconds and a three-cone time of 6.72 seconds. He did not participate in the jumps (he was a top performer in both the vertical jump and the broad jump among cornerbacks at the combine). He has very long arms, is smooth in coverage and displays good ball skills (he originally came to Nebraska as a wide receiver). Jean-Baptiste should be a second-day draft pick.

My point exactly. 4.45. I'm not a wet blanket i was just being realistic. It's extremely hard to put any stock in pro day 40 times.

So

 

[HuskerPower52]

I would be very surprised if 10 players in college could run a sub 4.3

 

[HuskerPower52]

Ahman green ran a 4.17

So

I promise you he's capable of running a 4.2

 

[chucksker]

Ahman green ran a 4.17

Hand timed

 

[Brasky]

Ahman Green is the best open field runner I've ever seen.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Other people are reporting 4.35 now.

I'm going to go ahead and assume he ran a 4.08.

Fuck 'em all. Huskerz fer Champz.

 

[Red_Alert]

He's gonna be an undrafted free agent anyway, right?
