This is considered borderline slow for a LB & may be the direct result of why he can't keep up with TE's, speedy RB or WR's .

In this respect, those combine times & cone drills mean everything for a linebacker.

Which is why I am selling the Perryman pick now. He is basically a younger version of Lofton, but with the slow 40 times there is no way he is covering NFL talent. We need more speed at ILB.
