looking more and more like it...

RookieDraft WR Alshon Jeffery, #SouthCarolina is training at St Vincents here in Indy. Sources say he's weighing 249lbs + running a 4.88 Forty #NFLDraft

yikes.
i'm not sure how long he's been training there, but you'd think it would be long enough tp have gotten in better shape. if it was long enough for him to get in better shape and this is where he's at right now then where was he before?

hello 2nd/3rd rounder?

fwiw, this came out a few minutes later...

@Schottey: Confirmed...Alshon Jeffery has been in Tampa since January 8th. IF he ran a 4.88 in Indianapolis, it was over a month ago.

[Panthro]

This is who I keep thinking about....the USC MW not the Syracuse MW

[jtnc]

Yep he's gonna drop big time.

I know that facts and logic are frowned upon around here but...

His trainer sees things differently. Jeffery is now stationed at the Athlete’s Compound in Tampa where many of super-agent Eugene Parker’s clients go to prepare for NFL Draft season. His training is being overseen by their Director of Performance who has worked with athletes ranging from Ndamukong Suh to Derek Jeter who he personally trains in the MLB off season. Jeffrey is currently facing a regimen of 9-hour days that looks like this:

Day 1: Track Work
Day 2: Position-Specific (Routes, 3-cones, speed cuts, etc)
Day 3: Early Lift, Mild lactic acid breakdown, Rest/Regeneration
Day 4: Track Work
Day 5: Position Specific
Day 6: Early Lift, Mild lactic acid breakdown, Rest/Regeneration
Day 7: film / relax / extra massage, recovery, etc.

A lot more in this article that addresses some concerns about Alshon...

Tight end, anyone?

[Jackofalltrades]

I'd take him as a TE.

[rayzor]

or a fullback. lol

He's a Red Zone threat, inside the 20 he'd be lethal, we need that. This is great news, if he falls far, he'd be a steal at a later round. Also, I doubt he runs that poorly in the combine.

probably because he won't run. he might at his pro day, but he's going to want to put it off as long as possible.

[Ivan The Awesome]

True, very true. If he's smart he won't run at the combine. But he might go against the grain and do it anyway.
