    You need sufficient speed. 4.3 v 4.4 means almost nothing compared to change of direction, mirror, and recognition skills.

      @nflrums: #Alabama WR Jameson Williams told #Dolphins scouts that he really hopes the team drafts him to play with his former teammates.

        And yes if Sauce is there I'm drafting him. If not I've always liked McDuffie.

        You dont pass on a guy with that type of athletic ability. I've got him in the late 2nd/early 3rd range.

        I also like cCollum in the late 3rd/early 4th. Small school guy who tested in the 99% SPARQ. Looking at Barnes in the mid to late 4th for the same reason. I dont expect Barnes to start right away.

          Being a fast athlete doesn't make him a good CB. They can get away with that more in college but not in the NFL. Not to mention he has never played even a full 12 game college season.

          No way he goes 2nd round. Id probably take a flyer in the 6th or 7th.... If there isnt better value out there. I don't expect any of those guys that you mentioned to start right away. You kidding?

          Scouts for teams and GMs are not just looking at guys that can run fast. You.got to have more to your game than just straight line speed. And the ones that are just looking at that won't be GM's very long.

            Agreed! I am all about taking a flyer on McCollum in the 5th after his combine. The reason why, give him 2 years behind Davis to groom and take his spot once Davis hit the open market again.

              Maybe it’s enough for TT to overlook the 2020 sexual battery charge. Wouldn’t count on it.

                Not much of an edge setter either but if they can plug the middle better, that would help.

                I wonder how much leeway players get with Dean on charactor issues.

                  Agree.

                  From past history and current climate, I’d say not much, if any at all.

                    Media always transmits hype going in and coming out of the combine, no wonder good people/fans get confused and mis diagnose prospects draft value.

                      McCollum tested outstanding on 3-cone and the short shuttle: so it is more than straight line speed.
                      He also is a big corner: not a 5'9" 175 pounder who will easily get bullied in the NFL.

                      I haven't seen him, so i don't know how this translates to his college performance.
                      Evidently, it was good enough for him to get an invite.

                      No doubt there are technique issues or he would easily be a day 2 pick.

                        Give it up! William's is the Chief's 2nd round pick. He won't be available in round 3 to so much as tempt Telesco.

                          I'm terrible at evaluating CB's.

                          But I will bet you he goes before the 6th/7th.

                          If I was a GM, because I'm terrible at evaluating CB's, I would make getting a CB in FA a yearly occurrence, I do think Gardner and McDuffie will be very good in the NFL.
