My boy runs a 4.38 40

So you're saying that maybe he could be the next Troy Williamson?

 

well, this is the thing that gets to me about ginn; throw out durability, hands, blocking, all of that, it's his YPC. he's always said to be the big play guy, but when you look at the guys who will go in the first round, he is below all of them in YPC. he's below jarrett, who cant outrun kerry collins.

ted ginn jr- 14.4
calvin johnson- 16.4
dwayne bowe- 15.6
dwayne jarrett- 14.5
rob meahem- 17.1

those are all career averages.

 

robbie meachem ftw

 

If I remember correctly, Johnson wasn't even planning on running the 40 at the combine, but when teams started questioning him about opting out he borrowed someone elses shoes to run it, can you possibly argue that he could have been 100% ready to run that? but he still ran a 4.35

 

Johnson didn't have an injured foot prior to running, nor did he run in the rain. He was in shape when he went to the combine.

If they used laser time, knock off an additional .08 off his 40 to a 4.30.

 

Oh yeah, he did it twice too.

 

Spending the 19th pick in the draft on a Kick Returner who will never amount to more than a #2 WR in the NFL and who flat-out CANNOT block, when we still can't stop the damn run, would be one of the worst draft decisions ever made by this organisation. I don't see it.

His pro-day meant nothing. Every one knows he's fast. If we installed a running track around the field and we were awrded 7 points for each track meet Teddy won, then it might be a different story.
