I guess you just completely ignored the other two times he posted. You called him slow, I didn't call him a burner. He has more than enough speed to play the position and certainly not one would characterize as slow.

The three-cone drill is based on quickness, change of direction, and acceleration...not speed.

Which is key for cornerback play. They're not running 40 yard dashes out there on the football field. It's not a track meet.

Malcolm Jenkins is not fast.

Meh.

He chased down Vincent Jackson, who looked exhausted and was pulling up. Not to mention he isn't that fast either. Jenkins made some big plays. He's got potential, but this is the make it or break it year for him.

Vincent Jackson runs a 4.46.

Just stop dude.
