Quote:Cant tell if sarcastic or not, but theres no "elite" receivers without downfield speed. Blackmon is is physical and can break tackles, but hes not running away from anybody like all the top WRs can. 

 

lolz.......what was Jerry Rice's 40 time?? 

 

Another combine clown that doesn't trust his eyes/ game footage, I see...

 

Quote:I've not really noticed where his speed is a problem.

 

Thats because its not, nor has it ever been. 

Quote:He's got multiple long TD passes where he's out ran the CBs/Safeties.. including the one vs STL a few weeks ago and a couple vs HOU last year. 

 

Yep.....Blackmon didn't seem to get caught from behind on those long runs, so I have no idea where this speed issue is coming from. 

 

Quote:Hmmm.... jerry rice, Brandon Marshall, Fitzgerald etc... all elite but probably don't have "elite" speed. Point is you don't have to have outstanding speed to be elite. More so you need to know how to seperate your self and catch consistently.

 

Yep, more good examples. 

 

According to the clowns though, I guess they'd rather have guys like Matt Jones & Reggie Williams, who timed at 4.38 and 4.45 respectively, yet played slow as poop on the field. 

 

Gotta have those good combine/ pro day numbers, you know?!!! <breathes through mouth>
