Hawk looks good at Pro Day

EB, I know we disagree here -- you think Hawk is slow.....But game and 40 time evidence just refutes this.

I agree all the 40 times are weird at OSU.....I've stated this for a long time.....But his official 40 time at the Combine was 4.59 -- outstanding for his weight (over 250)....

Don't get too caught up with 40 times.....I was watching Stanford all season, for example, and Combine star J. Alston got a ton of praise for running a 4.44 40 at Indy for a linebacker.

But you want to know the truth?

Alston's a 215-220 pound safety project, who spent most of his career playing standup defensive end in college, just blitzing the QB...

He has almost zero refined linebacking skills (coverage; run stopping), based on the way he was used in college. He's just fast and aggressive. Good prospect, but let's not go to overboard on 40's, either way.
