Philly Brown 200 pounds?

Josh Norman told me he thinks Corey Brown and Colin Jones are the fastest players on the team.

So many opinions with no real information. But I did interpret it as he's been letting himself go.

Eh, Philly has looked pretty fast on the field to me.  He's not like top end Ted Ginn/Desean Jackson/etc. speed or anything... but fast nonetheless.

 

I've read that he's ran around the late 4.2 and 4.3 range multiple times (even recorded a 4.3 or something at his pro day)... just had a rough day at the combine.

 

4.5 is probably average or slightly above average for a WR.  Philly definitely looks faster than "average" on the field IMO.  Honestly, I'm really high on the guy going forward... probably more so than most.

 

Philly stood on his combine numbers at his pro day, so he most certainly did not run a 4.3 at his pro day.

The fact that he decided to not run at his pro day tells me that he probably didnt expect to run faster than a 4.5

Good lord people. 

 

He put on a good amount of muscle through the season last year, so that 180 you see on the Panthers web page was back when the Panthers signed him last spring. At the end of the season he looked to me to be around 190. He has the frame for it. He isn't a skinny little guy like some of you seem to think. 

 

Putting on 10 pounds of muscle over the past few months... not shocking if he is working hard.

There are plenty of fast 5'11, 195-200 lbs WR's in the NFL.

Is it wrong that I never read "pounds" anymore when I see "lbs"? It's always "linebackers"...

I'm not a rocket scientist or anything, but 4.3 and 4.5 isn't that much of a difference. Both times are pretty fast.

A lot of stupid posts up in here

To be fair, in the 40 that's about 5 feet of distance between the times. In a game of inches thats pretty significant.

4.3 and 4.5 are .2 seconds apart

 

1 and 3 don't seem that far apart either... until you contextualize it by saying "draft round"

The people who think this means Philly is getting fat are the same people who thought CJ was announcing his retirement with that tweet.

Very true.

I hope he's gaining muscle not fat. I would hate to see him out of shape come training camp because he would probably loose his job with all the competition at WR.

[Jeremy Igo]

I give up.

we have the most superstitious, pessimistic, paranoid fan base ever...
