\"\"As expected there were some blazing times at the NFL Combine on Sunday as the running backs and wide receivers took to the field for their drills.\u00a0 Many anticipated the times of CJ Spillers, Jacoby Ford and LSU specialist Trindon Holliday and they did not disappoint.\u00a0 Ford turned in the fastest official time at 4.28.\u00a0 There were some reports that Ford clocked in the 4.18 range on some of the scouts clocks in attendance.\u00a0 Trindon Holliday turned in the 2nd fastest official time at 4.34 and CJ Spiller clocked a 4.37 with an unofficial time of 4.28.<\/p>\n

Aside from those blazing times,\u00a0 there were some other impressive performances on the 40 yard track.\u00a0 Pittsburgh TE Dorin Dickerson laid down a 4.40.\u00a0 Did you hear what I said?\u00a0 A Tight End just ran a freakin 4.40.\u00a0 We are getting closer and closer to being mutants in the World of athletics.\u00a0 Dickerson measured at 6’4″ and weighed in at 226 lbs.\u00a0 Oh yeah,\u00a0 I am shaking my head.\u00a0 I am also shaking my head over Miami Tight End Jimmy Graham being 6’7″ 260 lbs. and clocking 4.56.\u00a0 Sounds like a bunch of guys suped up on Madden 10.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Also have to give props to Cal running back Jahvid Best laying down an unofficial 4.33 and Fresno St. running back Ryan Matthews cranking out an unofficial 4.41 weighing 218 lbs.\u00a0 Matthews,\u00a0 in my opinion,\u00a0 is the most underrated player in this year’s draft pool.\u00a0 I feel about him the way I felt about Vincent Jackson when he was coming out.<\/p>\n
