4.39 isn't blazing fast, man I am getting old. 

I only said that for sake of argument. A few players can hit that 4.2 mark now. 16 Men have run sub 4.3 during the Combine era.

1. WR Xavier Worthy: 4.21 seconds (2024)
2. WR John Ross III: 4.22 seconds (2017)
3. CB Kalon Barnes: 4.23 seconds (2022)
4. RB Chris Johnson: 4.24 seconds (2008)
T-5. RB Dri Archer: 4.26 seconds (2014)
T-5. CB Tariq Woolen: 4.26 seconds (2022)
T-5. CB DJ Turner II: 4.26 seconds (2023)
T-8. WR Marquise Goodwin 4.27 seconds (2010)
T-8. WR Henry Ruggs III: 4.27 seconds (2020)
T-10. WR Jacoby Ford: 4.28 seconds (2010)
T-10. WR J.J. Nelson: 4.28 seconds (2015)
T-10. CB Jalen Myrick: 4.28 seconds (2017)
T-10. WR Tyquan Thornton: 4.28 seconds (2022)
T-10. CB Nate Wiggins: 4.28 (2024)
T-15. S Zedrick Woods: 4.29 (2019)
T-15. CB Javelin Guidry: 4.29 (2020

Needless to say though---should be anyway---McConkey and speed are not a problem.

If for whatever reason he doesn't work out, he's a UFA in 2025 which would be a positive in the compensation formula, possibly netting a third round pick.

However, I'm hopeful he can return to career highs and the Panthers can resign him.

lot of players have trained very hard for that 40 or are track kids.   It’s overblown to an extent.  Football speed matters more and they aren’t exactly the same things.  

I mean I follow the Clemson boys pretty well.  Lot of studs at WR there.  Fastest is random Jacoby Ford.  Just track speed.  Track kid.  Wasn’t a good WR vs all the others

There is a new test they are having players have gps monitors on during route drills and gives them fastest playing speed data started just last year and rams good rookie wr had the best football speed during it

Yeah Antonio Brown ran close to a 4.5 as well, he had no trouble getting open before he lost it. 4.5ish is fine if you know what you're doing and are quick off the line and don't get pressed

I remember the outright fascination with Jon Ross. He was a disappointment.

The blazing fast 40 time players are rarely the best football players. It's fools gold to lock in on the fastest players.

Then we have the top receivers last year:

Hill: 4.29 

Lamb: 4.5

St Brown: 4.61

Nacua: 4.57

Brown: 4.49

Moore: 4.42

Ayuk 4.5

Collins: Collins 4.4

      FLA showed everyone it’s not about superstars. they bullied the best line in the NHL into obscurity. they played hard, were in the right positions, and ran over everything that got in their way.

      That’s really not what you said and when I even expressed doubt as to your intentions with the post you doubled down and remained unclear on whether you were trying to drag Dean Smith for whatever reason. You just got the facts wrong, which if you don’t follow the local college programs like you say then maybe you just were mistaken and thought Smith didn’t win championships or have legit superstars, and that is ok, but you just doubled down when my first post was more corrective than anything. I’m not sure what you expect posting objectively false things like “RBA has a lot of wins with nothing to show for it like Dean Smith” (paraphrasing) on a message board with plenty of UNC fans. I’m not taking it as a personal affront, we can agree to disagree, Dean Smith’s legacy fortunately will not be affected by this conversation. Screw the (Florida) Panthers?

      Bring in the free agents and trades.  Florida is the best team and unless Tulsky makes it happen, it’s more of the same…which isn’t bad…but it’s time to win a goddamn cup.
