Golden is the classic fools gold to me. Almost none of those "fastest 40" guys pan out. 

As Texas fan I loved watching Golden play this year. Dude has that big time feel to him and made big time catches when it mattered. The 40 time is just a cherry on top

Pro day numbers are always suspect but comparing him to Funchess is laughable.

Huh? In what way did I compare them other than using Funchess as an example of pro day numbers improving over combine numbers. Unlike Tet, Funchess did run at the combine so we can see the impact of HFA pro day times. For Funchess it was 4.7 to 4.5 and Tet was unknown to 4.48. 4.5 flat and 4.48 aren’t much different so I’d suspect Tet would have run a 4.6+ at the combine.

Pro Day season is in full swing, and Arizona WR Tetairoa McMillan had his workout today. McMillan ran just one 40-yard dash—it was hand-timed at 4.54, 4.55 and 4.57 on the stopwatches of 3 teams I talked to.

Workout was good otherwise. Big-bodied guy, so times were expected.

That was just 3 of the 40 teams, some had him as low as 4.46

Either way, just as I’ve said all year, he plays with more than enough speed for someone of his size, even the low end of those timings is faster than the plodding big man people on here seem to perceive him as.

He isn't a guy I would take until the late first/early second as a Panthers fan.

Highest upside in the draft.  They said the same about Worthy last year.  I understand the concerns, but gamers step up and have the tape to back it up.  Workout warriors dont.

You might be spot on, but I see him as a mid first round guy--a small trade back and he would be my pick.  I think he has upside and will be a better pro than the other top WRs.  but nobody knows.

TEA LEAVE TIME!!! The coaches (ILB and DL) suggest an interest in TJ Sanders, Hemingway (DTs) and Demetrius Knight Jr. (ILB that nobody has mentioned but is probably a late third, early fourth rounder). No DB coach?  Emmanawori is their best player, a mid to late round S.   Wonder if the ILB coach will watch him as well? 

Note:  While Hemmingway is not their star DT, the Panthers talked to him at one of the bowl games or combine.  Not sure if it was formal, but I read it somewhere.

Per Josh Kendall of The Athletic, South Carolina S Nick Emmanwori has top 30 visits with the Falcons, Panthers, Seahawks, Bengals and Dolphins.
