Speedy LB's at the Combine!
I'm sure we will end up with one of these guys. I just wonder which one.
The NFL's annual job fair is just about over, but we're going out with a bang. Linebackers worked out, and I must say this may very well be the fastest group of linebackers ever. There are guys that ran as low as 5.45 and a bunch of guys under 4.65. Teams will be licking their chops come April after this eye-opening experience.
Of note, five linebackers really made an impact thanks to their times in the 40-yard dash. Auburn's Dontarrious Thomas (241 pounds), Oklahoma's Teddy Lehman (240 pounds), Washington's Marcus Cooper and Kansas State's Josh Buhl all ran under 4.6. Notre Dame's Courtney Watson, however, beat them all and ran the 40 in 4.53 seconds. Outstanding results.

Thomas' time was the biggest surprise. He definitely earned money today!
