4.64 is somewhat slow these days for receivers. They are always looking for the 4.4 and 4.5 kind of guy at that position. Sometime I think they put too much into that time though

I was referring to his low time. His profile says he won't get drafted and I doubt he will either.

Yeah low time is OK but high time and the actual 40 time he'll get are not in his favor. Love the guy but the last 2 seasons really didn't help his draft stock. Maybe he catches on as a #4 WR somewhere with a good camp or something.

That sucks. Had some good talent. He would be a good pickup for someone in the late rounds. May not be extremely fast but as some good skills. Hopefully someone will pick him up.

Im pretty sure he will get drafted he is speedy but his great hands and size will get him drafted probably somewhere betweenrounds 4-7

Drafted...maybe not. But he will get picked up somewhere and be a steal as a free agent, what an end-zone monster if he can bulk-up more.

Maybe he will have a good day on Saturday and show a good time for the combine. From what was talked about before he should be running under what this site has for him.

Never put off until tomorrow what you can avoid all together.

He won't be a great special teams player, he's not a very good blocker and some of the articles I read about him in the All Star game said that his route running was terrible. There was an interesting back handed compliment in one. It basically said that he runs terrible routes and DBs are able to stay right with him, but somehow, he still makes catches...

Did you not see how good he was at making fair catches?!? NFL teams can never have enough guys good at that.
In the Rivals videos he seemed to get open a lot in practice during that All-Star game practice.

The way I read it that isn't the combine results. That's just his profile, the results section hasn't been filled out. WR don't work out until sunday.

Tuba on the other hand... is a lock to be drafted and could make it into the first day. Bowen has a decent shot I think.... that site projects him in the 4th.

While I don't think his route running is terrible, it's certainly not good. And I agree with both other points. He simply doesn't fit on special teams and is not a good blocker.
These things will really hurt his chances at the next level.

Wait until after the combine. I think we'll all be able to prognasticate more after. Right now this is one sight's opinion. I think he'll definately go, but I'm reserving how high or low in the draft until the official combine results.
