4.62 at the combine. Now 4.7s at his pro day. How far does Tabor drop?

Foreman is my favorite RB in this draft. I'd love Big Mac to acquire an additional 2nd to grab him.

I know it can be done because they do it for accident reconstructions. Game speed is all that matters. How fast does a guy run in full equipment on a field with 21 other guys. Some guys are fast in their shorts but tentative, unsure, and much slower on the field in full gear. And still other guys "play" faster than would be imagined based on their straight line 40 time.

I'm praying some other players rocket up the board or that at least 2 of these not very good QB's are taken in the top 5 because, right now, Adams is not dropping to #6.

HawkeyeJet what do you think of Riley McCarron from Iowa? He just put up some really good numbers at his Pro Day. 5'9, 185lb, 4.36-4.38 40, 3.99 shuttle, 6.57 3 cone, 40'5 vert, and 10'4 broad.

Riley also beats him in everything else except the shuttle 3.92. These numbers scream Pats WR. He also looks to be a decent returner, but Iowa didn't use him there much.

I honestly have no idea who he is, never heard of him but I tend to watch more SEC ball.

There's almost nothing on him out there. I'd have to watch full games on youtube. I wonder what they're putting in the corn there. Kittle upped his vert to 38.5 and ran the 3 cone in 3.78.

Not a pro, in my opinion, at WR at least. Doesn't have the hands or route running ability to make it at WR in the NFL. Iowa is a bit notorious for having a fast track when it comes to Pro day 40. With that said, he is a very good athlete,as his other tests indicate.I just don't think he's polished enough. If he gets a shot as a UDFA, I could see him potentially making a mark as a ST ace. Has the attitude and fire to make it work if that's his only way in. King was Iowa's main returner the past two years. McCarron went back when teams started trying to keep it out of his hands. Had a few nice punt returns.

I will add this, as far as Iowa's testing. Iowa's strength coach, Chris Doyle, is the best strength coach in the country, bar none. Just my 2 cents.
Iowa is a developmental program. They bring in certain molds of players and build them into their prototype player.
Kittle is a perfect example. He had zero other D1 offers. He was a HS WR. He would have been maybe able to play at Iowa as a WR, but they saw the "starter kit" of a great TE, so they bulk him up, and he goes from a low end athlete at WR to a high end at TE. They do it as good as anyone in college football. They produce NFL ready players. The elite level superstars may be few and far between, but they provide a lot of solid NFL contributors, and don't get enough credit for how many they produce.
