Benjamin's Combine 40


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

 

His profile page lists his time at 4.61, but on the tape here he runs a4.59 on his first attempt and a 4.53 on his second.  For a guy his size, that's pretty good.

 

What strikes me more watching this clip though is how much ground he covers.  Watch the slo-mo and you'll see him covering close to two full yards with each step he takes.  Those big long legs make a difference.

 

For another perspective,, check this clip...

 

 

A little after 1:25, you get to see how it looks when he's running straight at you.  Gives you the same feeling you'd have seeing a freight train bearing down on you.  Even just watching on a computer, I had the urge to dive out of the way.

 

Looking forward to seeing that in a game for us :)

He really is a physical specimen!  The physical talents are pretty much undeniable, it's the consistency that gets people.  I look forward to the work he does with the coaches during the off season and seeing what he can do in the preseason.  We signed a lot of vets this season for a reason.

 

But I am totally looking forward to him running over someone!  I hope we get to see that!

"He ran a 4.6 40 at the combine... I don't care." - Mike Mayock

 

That guy is such a dipshit. After all the hype he built up for Blaine Gabbert, I don't know why anyone here still posts anything he says.

The guy is pretty decent for the most part. Gabbert was probably the biggest mistake of his career.

 

Not defending the guy but I doubt many could do better.

He's a hype man, that's pretty much it. I don't even know that I'd hold his opinion over the average huddler.

    • Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!
    • How do I activate said Krispy Kreme deal? I'm stoned man you can't be playing with me about this...
    • When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
