Insane... guy ran it on 4.24 unofficially... that's as fast as Chris Johnson (you may have heard of him) ran a couple of years ago. And Mays is a 230-pound safety.

I may have been a bit premature, there are rumors the real time is more like 4.34, which would still be beastly.

But if he ran a 4.24, I think Al would trade all of his draft picks to move to #1 and pick Taylor there.

You guys with rumors of false times, where are your sources?

I saw a 4.24 and a 4.34, unofficial.

ya it is officially listed as 4.43

the 4.24 was the result of human error.

watching the combine live on nfl network and it was big news. ps in his next drill he completely whiffed the interception. he jumped in the air and the ball was at least 4 feet to his left. awful.
BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

Simply put.. you can put a stopwatch or tape measure on the football ability of a player.. there is no substitute for watching film, watching them play ball with the lights on and opposition hunting..

That is a concept I believe that at least a quarter of the NFL personnel people either don't get or are looking for shortcuts in their scouting.. I would put very little stock in the combine numbers unless they throw red flags in the interviews or physical.. the rest should just be padding on what you already know.

I heard how some folks are disappointed in a kid like McCluster at the combine.. his 40 time.. yet if you watch the kid on film he pops.. his elusiveness and cuts just pop out... he looks really fast between the lines..

Mays seems to have a low football IQ on he field, poor ball skills and takes a number of poor angles but makes up for it with athleticism.. at the next level that isn't going fly.. hence you need to spend some time with the kid and see if he is coach able.. if not.. off the first couple round of our board he goes..

USC has a number of fine coaches.. but look at their secondaries.. they don't churn out many back there.. is it a coaching issue? Can you coach up this kid and reteach him 15 plus years of habits and reactions he has learned?

I am not sold on Mays in the 1st at this point.. from what I have seen of him on the field.. combine numbers aside.

40 time is stupid...Greg Jennings and Chad Jackson are proof of that ( if you dont know go look them up and see who is still in football)

I have always wondered why these players are not doing things that translate to the field..

Pushing sleds, running with the ball in the 40, or the cones, or doing all this in pads
