** Official guess Mike Hughes 40 time at the combine thread **

[Mikesi]

Will wait after he runs it for the official confirmation.

I’ll go out on a limb and say 4.28.

 

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

4.39

 

[Mikesi]

4.39

The only thing I’m concerned about is that it may take him awhile to get to top speed. May be ymore of a 60 meter or 100 meter guy than a 40 yard guy.

Quincy McDuffie was very fast, but didn’t run an impressively fast 40.

From what I’ve seen it’s that first step. Guys that take a long stride usually have a fast time.

[Boston.Knight]

4.38 . First thing popped in my head

 

[Stormthecourt?]

4.41

 

[UCFloridaTech]

Which direction will he be running?

Into the wind

Guys. This is serious business. It’s the “official thread.” Not to be confused with imitation threads since this is the best board on the planet.

You can talk penis sizes and IQ’s in another thread. Let’s have some real guesses

Fine. 7 flat but only because he runs it twice.

 

[jlwucf]

11 parsecs. We’re talking 2013 Baylor fast.

 

[Knight_Light]

4.38 . First thing popped in my head

Same here.

 

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

What’s the guess on Griffin today? Mine is 4.52. Hopefully faster.

 

[Mikesi]

That’s a good guess. Doubt he’s faster than his brother with the added weight. I say 4.48

 

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

If he can get 4.49 or lower he goes up more teams boards.

 

[G8RLegist]

4.46 is the fastest any linebacker has run since 2008. Just throwing that out there for comparison's sake. People tend to get unrealistic about 40 times.

Yes.., but I’m sure that hardly anybody thought that Smith would run a 4.49. Why can’t he break 4.50??? He’s not one of those other linebackers since 2008

Honestly, he’s the twin of a guy who ran 4.38 or whatever. Add a tenth for his weight and I say 4.48. He’s fast on film and Auburn said that he had the fastest closing speed of any LB that they faced. Doubt he runs slower than 4.55

Former track guy too. He knows how to break out of gate fast.

 

[Mikesi]

Rashaad Penny from San Diego State ran a 4.46. I maybe wrong, but I just don’t see a guy like that pulling away from Griffin in the open field.

 

[Knightrodamus]

I'm guessing 4.20; he's gonna blaze it

 

[Mikesi]

Hahahaha. Isn’t the combine record 4.24 by Chris Johnson? That may have been tied or beat last year.

 

[G8RLegist]

Hahahaha. Isn’t the combine record 4.24 by Chris Johnson? That may have been tied or beat last year.

John Ross from Wahington beat Johnson last year with a 4.2.

 

[Knightrodamus]

John Ross from Wahington beat Johnson last year with a 4.2.

I thought he ran a 4.22?

 

[G8RLegist]

I thought he ran a 4.22?

Correct. I mistyped. Here is the link to all of the past times. http://www.nfl.com/combine/top-perf...&position=QB-RB-WR-TE-S-EDGE-DL-LB-CB-OL-SPEC

 

[Mikesi]

That’s right 4.22 and he was drafted way too high IMO. Didn’t catch a pass last year. Maybe he was hurt. Perriman ran a 4.2 something, but guys always seem to run faster on their Pro Day

 

[Knight_Light]

Don't see Griff running that low...as it's his instincts and drive that make him so valuable.

 

[Mikesi]

I’m sticking with 4.48. If I’m wrong, so be it. I’m going to go down swinging. Mike Hughes 4.28.

Alright, thank you for the awesome link!

 

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

Griff ran 4.38.

 

[Nyght Shadow]

4.38 - best linebacker time since they started recording the combine in 2003

 

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

4.46 is the fastest any linebacker has run since 2008. Just throwing that out there for comparison's sake. People tend to get unrealistic about 40 times.

There goes that.

 

[Mikesi]

 

[Mikesi]

Just amazing!!! Didn’t want to say how fast I really thought and get laughed at. I should have. Never doubt this player

 

[Mikesi]

I guess twins run the same 40 time. Can’t argue with genetics. It’s science!!!

Oh well.

 

[Mikesi]

So Griffin runs a 4.38 at 227 and Barkley 4.40 at 233. So UCF basically had one of the best athletes in all of college football

A 3-Star recruit?

 

[Mikesi]

“Oh Adrian. Come on” Oh Dear! Stop with this nonsense. Stop motivating big bad Auburn from the SEC. See Auburn has seen mere mortal linebackers from Clemson, LSU, Georgia and Alabama that run 4.5 and 4.6 40’s, but nothing like this Griffin guy. He’s in another galaxy
