2013 Steelers Draft Discussion Thread [No Spoilers]

His usually come in at like 6.1 or 6.3 or something like that. Deion actually ran it BACKWARDS along side him and was barely trying. Although Rich is wearing a suit when he does it though. I watched a documentary about the draft process and they were actually giving guys lessons on how to run a good 40. It's crazy the amount of detail they pay attention to.

 

So Im about right......If yinz are under 60 and in any kind of shape yinz can run a 6.0 40??

 

Yeah go over to the watercooler and watch the video I put there of Rich doing the 40. It's absolutely hilarious because it makes fun of Ray Lewis and has a special appearance by another legend as well.

 

i see 4.40 at the combine and 4.45 at his pro day. i've seen two sites with 4.40 combine numbers on him. walters has him at 4.45 at the combine.

 

Todd Haley said Wheaton plays faster than he's timed there are discrepancies in his 40 yd times no big deal he's fast enough.<a data-cke-saved-href="http://youtu.be/wY_G2PWoTMw" href="http://youtu.be/wY_G2PWoTMw">[video=youtube_share;wY_G2PWoTMw]http://youtu.be/wY_G2PWoTMw[/video]

 

If he's 4.4 legit that's fast enough to be a deep threat in the NFL he's not as fast as Wallace but not many are, he seems to fight for the ball something Wallace didn't do.

 

i know i'm late to the party, but i kinda like the Wheaton pick. he reminds me a lot of Wallace when he didn't suck. the dude can get open.

one benefit i saw someone list earlier is that he FIGHTS for the ball, which should make him better than Wallace if they use him right.

 

Wheaton did 20 reps on the bench at the Combine. Most of the top WRs did 11-14. He's a strong guy and that translates to the field when he fights for the ball.

 

Who cares. We need to get better here. I like his aggresiveness when he runs

 

Wheaton looks like AB to me. I guess that wouldn't be bad to have two of them out there.

 

Wheaton is a great pick...great kid...great receiver. I think people are getting a bit too caught up with the 40 time. Yeah, it is nice to see a guy with 4.3 speed but they are rare and most of those guys are only that, fast. Just as important and where I think Wheaton is better than Wallace is with his quickness. The guy is so quick he looks like water out on the field sometimes. Good pick!

 

Great video. But I don't see a single catch or run against Oregon or USC. Hmmm.

 

Names I'm looking for

Phillip Thomas
Earl Wolff
Khaseem Greene
John Simon
Barret Jones
Denard Robinson
Quinton Patton

 

Barkley gone. Probably gonna be a run on QB's here.

 

Chiefs took Nico Johnson. Good pick.

 

Tampa traded up for Akeem Spence

 

Boyce to NE.

 

they got a good one. he's a clone of wheaton. ours is better though.

 

any ideas who the Stillers will pick next?

 

Hopefully they'll go with a safety or ol.

 

Hi everyone again!

We're looking today for:
Safety / WR /OL / ILB

And a QB ?
