4.66 isn't bad at all, especially not with his size.

Truefully speed is over rated in the NFL. Not sure why it is brought up that much by news guys. I mean the difference between 4.0 and 4.66 is .66 of 1 second lol. Thats not a huge difference.
Also doesnt matter if it cant be sustened, endurance, like cooks can do. To prove that point the great Walter Payton ran 4.84 second 40-yard dash.
Im not sure alot of test in the combine are worth much.

WHAT!?!?!

Speed is not over-rated! That is just crazy talk. Speed Kills... why do you thing the pats gave up a 1st rounder for Cooks???

Let your 4.66 guy try and chase down Cooks - good luck.

Its obvious he's not a Dont'a Hightower, but I'm convinced its an upgrade to playing Robertson in the middle.

At worst I think he'll be NFL average with a decent ceiling. Thats better than what we've had lately.

Craig can now go back to WLB and thrive.
