WR Mike Walker UCF ran a 4.28 today?!?

What does it matter, really? Alot of people don't run up to speed on the field. They could be track stars that arent running even 90% on the football field. There is a reason noone recognized this kid as a burner, because he isn't blazing fast on the football field.

Even after the combine... he wont be recognized as a burner. Thats not the type of WR he is. However, if he is doing alot of speed training and getting faster over the offseason... that can really help him... and add maybe the only missing piece that he lacked... a top gear...

Speed training and "getting faster" aren't exactly the same. Its easy to knock off .15-.20 from your 40 time in merely half a day by working on just your takeoff technique ( most football players know this technique, its how you get off a line with a quick burst.. Im talking just regular people like you and me )

There are some tricks to knock down itty bitty things of time off your 40.. and these track stars make a killing by being hired by agents to work with their clients and show them these tricks, because everyone know no matter WHAT position you play, a low 40 time will help you ( hell, look at punter.. Brian Monroe from Buffalo is the #1 punter in the league because of his leg, and accuracy, but every special teams coach in the league knows about his ability to fake it and run up the field.. guy runs a 4.42.. as a punter! )
 
Even if he didn't get a 4.28 the point remains, he may be faster then we thought.
 
He is a good reciever but he would really explode if he had a good QB throwing to Him.
