That's not too bad.

I figured he wouldn't run a ridiculously fast 40. However, a 1.62 is pretty solid. Basically that means that he can accelerate quickly, but he doesn't have a very high top-end speed.

He did not.

He is planning on doing that at ND's pro-day. IMO, he'll probably re-do the 40 and broad jump.

I would be VERY surprised if Arthur Brown goes in the 1st round and ahead of Alec Ogletree, Manti Te'o, or Kevin Minter. I like him as a prospect but his game is nowhere near as complete as those 3 guys, and I personally also prefer Khaseem Greene as an ILB prospect. I know he is well liked by a lot of people in the scouting community, so perhaps he could prove me wrong, but from what I've seen he slots in more with the 2nd group of ILBs in the class.

I wouldn't be unhappy if the Ravens drafted Brown with their 2nd round pick, but taking him in the 1st or early 2nd would be a reach IMO.

And I'm still on the Gerald Hodges train. He's a good player.

Same here.

Just watching him, it seemed as though he reached top speed by the halfway point.

its the more important number imo. Linebackers don't run 40 yards in one go too often. A 20 would be more beneficial

Pretty disappointed that Brown isn't doing anything today.

well see. I think he has everything you want. Reminds me off bowman and Washington so much.

Agreed. This is why its good to see Teo ran a pretty good 10 yard split for his size.

**bmorecareful** · 02-25-2013, 03:06 PM

Te'o's time is adequate, particularly his split. Not outstanding, but adequate. It won't help or hurt him.

Another guy not really being mentioned, more of a mid-round prospect, is AJ Klein. Very productive and well-regarded, but questions about his straight-line speed and athleticism (similar to Te'o). Well, he just ran a 4.68, 1.6 split at 6'1 250. Definitely good numbers and could push him up a bit.

I would love to have him as a 3rd or 4th round guy.
