Quote:Except like I previously stated... At the combine and multiple instances in training camp which you completely dismissed and said he has lost his explosiveness since the knee injury.


So I give examples of his explosiveness...things that actually occurred.


You say they didn't and that he hasn't been the same since the knee.


So I provided fact supporting it.


You made a baseless statement denying it.


Which was typical, but I'd appreciate accountability and you admitting you were wrong.

 

Too many fans and draktniks fall in love with the 40 yard dash, I can see why as it's an accurate measurable for <span style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;">long speed

. However, if you truly want to measure "explosion" look at the vertical (38 inch) and broad jump (10ft 7 inch), that's a true measure of lower body explosion, Marqise Lee is an incredibly explosive football player per those numbers, he doesn't have Desean Jacksons long speed (not too many do) but that's ok, he's explosive in short areas, he demonstrated that at USC. I'd rather have a guy that's explosive in short areas (that's more conducive at the NFL level) than a guy that can occasionally
get behind a secondary purely based off his long speed.</span>
