Michael Floyd's Stock Just Went Up

[A Pac]

He just ran a 4.42 at the combine. He may be working his way into the top 15 picks. Sucks for me, I want the Browns to get him but he won't be there at 22.

 

[irishmarine]

So proud and happy for him. He's made some mistakes but ha rededicated himself and it's showing.

 

[koonja]

Whoooooa. Is that official? That's solid!

 

[A Pac]

Wow there have been 4 or 5 guys who have run a faster time than him and he is still all Mayock is talking about. A guy just ran a 4.3 and Floyd is still the star. I didn't think Michael had it in him.

 

[RyCo1983]

Awesome! #3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Not official. Don't release the official until all run.

He just ran again and got a 4.44

Doesn't matter. That just confirms to me that his 4.42 wasn't a fluke. Dude can burn.

 

[tadman95]

Wow. Good to see. I always thought he was faster than his running style looked. I am impressed. He's having a good combine I think.

 

[Me2SouthBend]

So many mock drafts have had the Bears taking him at 19. He won't be available. Way to go Mike. Go Irish!

Yup. Lol at the people that said 4.6

This. He just went from top 20 to top 12 which doesn't seem like much but that is a lot of money

 

[SoJerseyIrish]

C'mon Mike......I want the Eagles to draft you, if you keep this up you won't be around.......

 

[BobD]

Thats a great time but I don't know if it will move him up. There are a lot of fast people in the NFL and speed alone doesn't score points. 19 seems about right to me.

 

[QuarrelsomeIrishAmerican]

WOW. Go Mike! I'm sure Longo had a lot to do with this.

Al Davis (RIP) just rolled his eyes at you

 

[notredomer23]

He looked really good on the gauntlet. This dude from Georgia tech is going to be a steal

 

[Junkhead]

Floyd looked fast, this year especially. I'm not really surprised at a 4.4, he looked explosive when he took off, but to have 4.4 speed at his size is rare.

he looked f---ing amazing in the gauntlet.

that low ball snag was bliss.

 

[pumpdog20]

Good for Floyd. My Bears need him badly!

 

[IrishLax]

Nice......

I think the Lions should trade Johnson and pick up Floyd. Johnson is going to become unaffordable.

PS: The Browns by all accounts are looking to deal with St. Louis to snag RGIII, which would probably mean first round swaps, plus the Browns #22.

Dont count out the Skins my friend.

I'm told by people within Redskins they are prepared to offer picks 1,2 and 3 this year, at least a 1 next year to move up to get RG3 at 2

I'm still hoping, most likely in vain, that Floyd might possibly drop to the mid 20s, where my Steelers could pick him up. With them not bringing back Hines Ward, they could use a guy like Floyd. Even with their stable of young guys who appear to be maturing into solid NFL receivers, I'd love to see Floyd in Pittsburgh.

 

[ohara831]

I know the Panther are interested in a WR at #9, but that would be more sure if Blackmon was still available. He will be long gone. Not sure is Floyd will be considered as high as #9. He and Wright from Baylor will follow Blackmon, but not sure when they come off the board. But I know Cam Newton would love to have Floyd as an option.

I only want RGIIi if he is there at 4 which he won't be. I want Rochardson at 4.

As much as I would also love to see Mike suit up for the Steelers, he'll be long gone. They need so much help along the O Line, D Backfield and even D Line before thinking WR again. They need to re-sign Wallace.

 

[NDPhilly]

SMH at Blackmon who didn't run the 40. He would have ran like a 4.55.

O line has got to be a huge priority for them. But that doesn't mean that I can't imagine the sweetness of seeing Floyd in a Steeler uniform. I think he would be a perfect fit for them, too. Blue collar, high acheiver, hard worker, humble.

NFL combine analysis rates Floyd 89.5 and Blackmon 93.5. If you read their actual analysis, it seems as if Floyd should be rated higher anyway. I know who I would take!
