Falcon drops the "alpha/beta" broscience like its original content... These jokes have been made forever. You aren't cool or clever.

Also serious lol at the you being Vernon Gholston. Your knee is held together by double sided scotch tape, you probably couldn't squat 3 plates if you factored out 9.82m/s^2.

If you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen. Can you smell what teh Falcon is cooking?!

[Integrity28]

That can be worked on as well.

 

Agreed. I am in a 3-nights per week kettle bell twerking class. They told me I'd get my money back if my ankle girth athleticism didn't increase by 1.21 gigawatts within the first 90 days.

I have an Issue with the 40 yard dash at the combine. Why do they let players get in a track stance to run the 40 ? Last time I looked at offensive alignments skill players on offense are always standing up straight which is much different when it comes to quickness off the line. The NFL should change the combine rules to make players do things more football related when it comes to speed. Some of the drills they run are also ridiculous. Are we looking for track and field stars or freakin football players ?

 

I like it.  Run the 40 in shells.  Start off however you want. 

[Greenseed4]

Favorite part of the day: Cutting away from Bishop Sankey and Lache Seastrunk pass-catching drills to talk about Dri Archer's hair.  

 

F*ckers.

Tell me more about real men, this sounds delicious.

Now, look at NBA verts. You'd think their sport would require better verts, but the average is like 28 or something.

[Integrity28]

Not missing much, tbh.

Kelvin Benjamin is not going in the first round. 4.61 with a 32.5" vert.

Not as good as when he tried to get himself banned by posting porn vids but couldn't find out how to link it.

-Jarvis Landry wasn't suppose to test well but still extremely disappointing numbers. 4th-5th round? 

 

-Martavis Bryant could be considered the biggest athletic freak (size, speed, explosive ratio)

 

-Mike Campanaro should be moving up boards with now, great numbers to go along with production on the field. 4.46/39"vert/122"Broad

 

-Lee, Davante Adams and Allen save themselves from bad 40 times by jumping out of the building with strong verts and broads. 

[BroadwayJoe12]

Now, look at NBA verts. You'd think their sport would require better verts, but the average is like 28 or something.

 

Standing vert is different than one's max vert. How often are players standing flat-footed below the basket without being able to take a step?  Additionally, you're still factoring in the 7' 300+ lb Center who's got the leaping ability of a water buffalo. It's better to do it by position.

[HessStation]

-Watkins, Beckham strong numbers across the board (Watkins top 10 and Beckham still somewhere mid to late 1st)

 

-Paul Richardson helped himself maybe move from a 3rd-4th to possible 2nd. 

 

-Kevin Norwood 4.48 makes himself a solid #2 NFL WR prospect imo. 

 

-Mike Evans 4.56/37"vert definitely stays a Top 20 pick but at least, leaves the door open to possibly hanging around until 18 (although slim shot)

[Greenseed4]

I thought Gallon looked good.

Now, look at NBA verts. You'd think their sport would require better verts, but the average is like 28 or something.

 

Basketball players require a lot more endurance. Those guys have to be able to run for a good 30 minutes a night if not more, whereas football's a lot of 5-10 second bursts. Plus the basketball season is a whole lot more games and 2-3 a week versus one. If you have to take endurance into account as you're physically preparing yourself it's going to sap explosiveness. They're still special athletes, but training for and doing different things than football players.

Hell, even the OL usually have around 30" standing verts. Obviously, NBA players obviously utilize running verts more than anything, but they should be able to easily dunk without taking a step. Or at least the guys that are ~6'2"+.

This shows you two things: 1) you can't teach height. NBA players have that. 2) NFL players are more explosive and athletic than you can possibly dream of being.  3) The average individual cannot be as athletic as the average NFL athlete.

[HessStation]

-Jeff Janis now propels himself onto the radar with a 4.42/37.5"vert/123Broad

 

-is Jordan Matthews now a real legit 1st rounder. Had a hard time separating at the Sr. Bowl but runs a surprising 4.46

 

-John Brown could be this years Trindon Holliday

 

-Brandin Cooks the fastest (4.33) Tevin Reese with the best ups (41" vert, which is insane), Donte Moncrief (and Reese) win the broad (132")

[T0mShane]

-Jarvis Landry wasn't suppose to test well but still extremely disappointing numbers. 4th-5th round?

He can recoup by running a -4.5 at his Pro Day. This happens every year, it seems.

-Martavis Bryant could be considered the biggest athletic freak (size, speed, explosive ratio)

Stephen Hill Redux

-Lee, Davante Adams and Allen save themselves from bad 40 times by jumping out of the building with strong verts and broads.

Lee would have helped himself with a 4.4, but didn't hurt himself today. Seems nfl types blame his struggles on Wittek and Kiffin. Adams and Robinson ran where most thought they'd run, and are aided by Brandon Marshall/Jefferies comparisons. The guy who really helped himself was Jordan Matthews with that 4.4, imo

You don't even know my athletic ability. And the AVERAGE NFL athlete does not have a 38" vertical.

Everyone who's been in a weight room throughout their undergrad knows your athletic ability.  You probably wear a lot of Tapout tshirts, drink a lot of muscle milk and think you can be a professional athlete if you just get bigger.
