'15 FL ATH Dexter Williams (Notre Dame Signed NLI)

[Luckylucci]

Hey Lucky, what's the O/U on his 40 and VJ tomorrow

Definitely higher/lower than his Sparq testing

 

[Luckylucci]

O/U on 40 I'd say 4.5.

Seems reasonable to set it there. VJ O/U at maybe 38-39

 

[Irish YJ]

Definitely higher/lower than his Sparq testing

ya mean there's no way he hits a 44.5 vert?
where's the faith Lucky?

 

[Luckylucci]

Hey, I hope he runs a 4.4 and jumps 45' and gets drafted in the 1st-2nd rd. Just not very realistic.

Nope, not realistic, but I do think he's going to be a steal for someone, and end up being the best ND back since the Bus.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

I feel like Dexter could get drafted in 3rd round, same as Alvin Kamara. As I think they both had similar college careers and not much tread on the tires.

HUUUUUUUUUUUGE deal for some teams.

They're gonna see his film from last year, see the way he makes the first guy miss and then hits top speed at the second level, and THEN they're gonna see how many carries he had at ND and be in love.

Are there any teams out there that have really good 3rd-down RB's, but could use an early-down back? That'd be the perfect situation for both Dex and his potential landing spot.

i would love if the 49ers grabbed him in the 3rd...

 

[Luckylucci]

If he tests well, I think you could see him get into the 3rd.

 

[#1rish]

Shouldn't it be the other way around; that he has a lot of tread left?

 

[Irish YJ]

RB 40s just started on the NFL network.

 

[ResLife Hero]

4.57 after an initial false start.

 

[koonja]

Interested to see if I'm still an idiot for saying he'll get drafted earlier than Josh Adams, and have a better NFL career than Josh Adams.

I'll sit idol in the idiot seat until we know for sure.

That's rough, shake it off Dex.

 

[Irish YJ]

the comments they made on Dex was that he runs hard, but runs high, and tried to make every run a home run.

 

[Irish YJ]

Holyfield (UGA) was 4.76. yikes.
Benny Snell 4.65. Thought he'd do better.

they just started 2nd attempts

 

[rtrn2glory]

he'll get another chance to run at the pro day worst case scenario

 

[Luckylucci]

Good news is there are a lot of slow times. Makes the comps easier.

 

[Irish YJ]

dex faulted again.... WTF

 

[Irish YJ]

4.58 second attempt.

 

[Irish YJ]

not sure if they corrected (they've done that for several), but NFL.com is showing him now at 4.5, and now 10th

[Luckylucci]

Bummer, those times don't help.

Well, maybe RB's don't need 4.5 speed to be dynamic players in college.

 

[rtrn2glory]

he'll run faster at the pro day.

You're no man's idol, but you can idle in the idiot seat all you like.

did not think weber was that fast wow

 

[Legacy]

Mayock's top 5 RBs' 40 times, 2017:

Leonard Fournette - 4.51
Christian McCaffery - 4.48
Alvin Kamara - 4.56
Dalvin Cook - 4.49
Samaje Perrine - 4.65

Kareen Hunt - 4.62

 

[Luckylucci]

did not think weber was that fast wow

Kind of bizarre, they adjusted down some guys number by a full tenth of a second, including Webers. His unofficial was 4.48 and 4.49.

 

[IrishLion]

Snell probably just cost himself some money, but some team is going to be thrilled to get him late and at a discount.

He doesn't have home run speed, but he's got uncanny vision and elusiveness for a dude who punishes defenders with physicality on the regular. That'll make him an effective early down and short-yardage RB for someone.

 

[notredomer23]

Was hoping Dex might surprise us with something in the 4.4-4.45 range. 4.5 is good but don't think it really affects his stock one way or another.
