At Nd's Pro Day Today

was it hand timed or electronic? on a gun or when he was ready? hee hee hee, i love seing people bicker about 40 times.

good for him though. he needed a good combine considering ND's offense didn't help his draft status this year.

Man that is good for a big ol tight end. Good on ya, John.

 

[Steve]

i can't remember what he ran at the combine, but i'm pretty sure 4.67 is a major improvement.

i'm gonna try to find his combine results.


EDIT: yeah, this site says he ran a 4.89 at the combine. he recovered nicely from that virus he caught. they said he looked good catching the ball at the combine so adding that to his new 40 time should help him out alot.

I hope so, He is a great player and I think he'll do good in the NFL. It's too bad that this season hurt his draft status but I guess all he can do is move on and try it in the NFL.

 

[IrishGrizz]

Didn't he lose alot of weight from that virus and therefore this workout was much more important for him? Does anyone know what else he did at the workout? Lift, run, do patterns and catch passes, or all of the above?

 

[Junkhead]

Yeah, he had a 4.94 and like a 4.89 at the NFL combine. Much better with the 4.67. Any other results from the day??

Thanks, Junkhead. Looks like he did it all- just not real strong, but still sounds like all the rest of the workout was good.

he proved to everyone that he is as good as all of us irish fans know is. We have been watching him the last couple of years and know he is a great tight end both in blocking and catching the ball and the run after the catch.

I still hope the Bungles draft him, even though they picked up the TE from Indy.

Browns already have K2, but I think he will do good in the NFL.

I don't remember Zibby running a 4.44 at the combine. It was a 4.52.

 

[Epitome]

That was a misprint. 4.44 was the actual time reported to the NFL
