Wan'Dale might make it to 65 or 70 now since he measured so much smaller than expected. But it's not great that he is more likely because he's tiny.

Gonna have to take looks at Pierce and Ty Fry. I think Pierce makes a good pick at 65/70 now and Ty Fry at 102. Not sure what to do with Austin.

Whoa Watson's broad jump at that size is bonkers, gonna have to dig deeper into him too.

Are you kidding me? You put all your emphasis on a meaningless 40 yard dash? I guess Cooper Kupp, Chris Carter and Larry Fitzgerald should have been UDFA's as well, according to your logic.

Meaningless?  No.

But you are right in that the 40 yard dash is not everything.  You have to be able to control that speed.  You have to be able to come in and out of breaks smoothly, set up your routes, get off the jam, and catch the ball.

Teams will see these 40 times and in many cases, review the film to see if the play on tape matches up with the speed.

A good 40 time can move you up draft boards, but if you don't have the production to match that good 40 time, teams will still be wary...at least the good ones.
