Definitely not a good look for Foster.

Curtis Samuel just ran an unofficial 4.31. John Ross with an unofficial 4.22! Chris Johnson is sweating lol.

Reuben Foster of Alabama Crimson Tide booted from combine over argument

I haven't been as high on Foster as most. But I am high on Cunningham, he is just a blue collar type with really good athletisism and smarts. I'll take that day in day out.

Did you actually watch any of his drills?

Rankins wasn't the best DT in 2015 cfb season. Neither was Thomas the best receiver but their combine performances put them over the top. Furthermore, if a RB can't bench press he's going to be missing games due to injury. His stock is going to be lower than Fournette and Cook's because of that. If they draft him it will be because Payton wanted him. Usually players have to show something in workouts to be drafted by the saints as evidenced by Robinson not getting drafted over Rankins.

Yes I'm aware of his combine numbers. But what good is that if he's constantly hurt like Reggie was?

He was also faster than LF and cooks though
