I ran a 4.55 at 13. As long as he can run without tripping and jump around 3 1/2 ft in the air then I'm cool.

 

That is fast for 13.  Wow.  You are right-quickness out of breaks, body positioning and control, and going up to catch the ball at its highest point are the skills we need.

Cam tends to sling it, and the throw to Ted Ginn comes to mind. That was a rocket. We need more guys who can make that catch if the ball were to come off a bit higher because that's where those throws from Cam typically end up.

I played soccer at that point, proceeded to be hit by a car. Nerve damage was a result of that slowing me down to a 5.1 and at 160 that doesn't cut it in any sport.

Good point on the deep passes.  I think that we get a burner in the draft--Beckham or Cooks

Tough break.  I was a pedestrian hit by a drunk driver my JR year of HS.  He was going about 40 mph when he hit me--I was on the sidewalk and he never hit the breaks.  I dented his hood, broke his headlight, and cracked his windshield.  I jumped a second before impact, and it saved my life.  I walked away with a few cuts and bruises.  your sitaution sounds worse.

Yeah I was on a bike and went through the windshield where the car proceeded to hit a tree going 45 with me stuck in safety glass. No broken bones, only a severed femoral artery and tibial nerve underneath my right knee. Without that slice I would've walked out of the hospital after a week, insteD I was in a coma for a week.

We should start a Wounded Pedestrians Project.

We both have reason to be very thankful.
