I could be wrong but didn't Ricky run a 4.57-4.59?
That's a prime example of why it is far from an exact science.

I'm really stepping out on a ledge, but sure i'll bet brady is more successful as a QB than Ford is. what's your wager that ford makes a better QB than tom?Want to make a bet regarding the success of Ford compared to Brady?

I'm more concerned about his pass catch rate which was terrible

Bill Walsh's book Finding the Winning Edge, in a chapter about player evaluation, describes exactly what I mentioned earlier in this thread. There is a big difference b/w a player's 40 time - track speed - and how a player plays on a football field - functional speed - which can only be found by watching him play or on film.
There are many strong and fast athletes, there are not many football players. And that's because you can not determine one with simplistic measurements.
You have that book? it's $239.00 on amazon right now :boohoo:
Boy, people are really going out on a limb here proclaiming that a 7th round pick is going to at best end up on the practice squad. No 7th round pick is flawless, but he really does look like a potential contributor down the road. He is "fast enough". He gets open. The kid is the most prolific reciever from a school that has produced a number of good NFL wideouts, and he did it with very mediocre QB's throwing to him. Every draft pick is a gamble, and the later the pick the lower odds of that gamble paying off, but given where he was picked, Ford is a very good gamble. Just don't be surprised if he ends up as our 4th WR when the season starts.

Isaiah Ford - WR - Virginia Tech
He might not be Davis, but Ford could be the possession receiver the Bucs need opposite Mike Evans.
7th round draft pick with 0 NFL snaps is the steal of the draft.
How much sense does this make? How often does the 7th pick in the draft become "the steal of the draft" And why is it fine to call a player "the steal of the draft" if you have never seen play other then on film a day ago...
Exactly. So how could a 7th rounder be the steal of the draft with 0 NFL snaps? Or is he only the steal of the draft because the Dolphins selected him?
