4.39 isn't blazing fast, man I am getting old. 

I only said that for sake of argument. A few players can hit that 4.2 mark now. 16 Men have run sub 4.3 during the Combine era.

1. WR Xavier Worthy: 4.21 seconds (2024)
2. WR John Ross III: 4.22 seconds (2017)
3. CB Kalon Barnes: 4.23 seconds (2022)
4. RB Chris Johnson: 4.24 seconds (2008)
T-5. RB Dri Archer: 4.26 seconds (2014)
T-5. CB Tariq Woolen: 4.26 seconds (2022)
T-5. CB DJ Turner II: 4.26 seconds (2023)
T-8. WR Marquise Goodwin 4.27 seconds (2010)
T-8. WR Henry Ruggs III: 4.27 seconds (2020)
T-10. WR Jacoby Ford: 4.28 seconds (2010)
T-10. WR J.J. Nelson: 4.28 seconds (2015)
T-10. CB Jalen Myrick: 4.28 seconds (2017)
T-10. WR Tyquan Thornton: 4.28 seconds (2022)
T-10. CB Nate Wiggins: 4.28 (2024)
T-15. S Zedrick Woods: 4.29 (2019)
T-15. CB Javelin Guidry: 4.29 (2020

Needless to say though---should be anyway---McConkey and speed are not a problem.

Yeah Antonio Brown ran close to a 4.5 as well, he had no trouble getting open before he lost it. 4.5ish is fine if you know what you're doing and are quick off the line and don't get pressed

If for whatever reason he doesn't work out, he's a UFA in 2025 which would be a positive in the compensation formula, possibly netting a third round pick.

However, I'm hopeful he can return to career highs and the Panthers can resign him.

lot of players have trained very hard for that 40 or are track kids.   It’s overblown to an extent.  Football speed matters more and they aren’t exactly the same things.  

I mean I follow the Clemson boys pretty well.  Lot of studs at WR there.  Fastest is random Jacoby Ford.  Just track speed.  Track kid.  Wasn’t a good WR vs all the others

There is a new test they are having players have gps monitors on during route drills and gives them fastest playing speed data started just last year and rams good rookie wr had the best football speed during it

I remember the outright fascination with Jon Ross. He was a disappointment.

The blazing fast 40 time players are rarely the best football players. It's fools gold to lock in on the fastest players.

Then we have the top receivers last year:

Hill: 4.29 

Lamb: 4.5

St Brown: 4.61

Nacua: 4.57

Brown: 4.49

Moore: 4.42

Ayuk 4.5

Collins: Collins 4.4

    • Watching Rams/Eagles. Celebrating the St Louis Rams team that won the SB (Warner, Holt, etc..) while playing in Los Angeles seems wrong.  If I were in Los Angeles, no way I would attend a Rams game.  Probably wouldn't attend a Chargers game either.  Becoming a fan of a team that likes to move around just seems like a waste of energy as a fan.  
    • The only responses I am getting after providing statistics to put opinions in perspective seem to be from people who get angry and attack stats and people whose opinions differ from their own.  Have people on the Huddle ever overreacted, exaggerated, been wrong about players before?  Sure they have, so an alternative opinion with statistical support should not cause you to attack me or my views.  I am sorry your public schools failed you.  But your reactions are very revealing--you are stuck in Piaget's concrete operational stage--learn logic, how to debate a topic, and learn the difference between facts and emotional opinions.  When I paralleled Cam's stats with Jones' to point out how remarkably similar their careers have been to this point, It blew some 40 watt minds.  I think Jones, in a better situation, could be good--that should not upset you--
    • penalties and poor hands is what cost us in the RZ Bryce missing "high" in the back of the end zone is not an issue, you're taught as a QB to throw high in the back of end zone were only the receiver can catch or no one The duo of Ian Thomas and Tommy tremble can both go at the end of the season, both been here for multiple seasons and they've barely developed
