    Taylor Mays 4.24 / 40 time
    Taylor Mays S from USC ran an unofficial 4.24 in the 40 yd dash at the NFL combine. Supposely it ties the record held by Chris Johnson of the Titans. Anyone think this makes him a top 10 pick now in the upcoming NFL Draft?

    Needs to show more than just speed. Didn't look great at USC last season.

      That was an unofficial number and now they're saying it was a 4.34

        I agree, senior season wasn't too good. I still think Eric Berry will go higher and be the better overall pro!!!

          looked awesome at some points in his college career and last year at times the whole defensive unit was struggling plus he sustained an injury that he has since recovered from.

          i think this kid will help a team for sure

            They're saying it was a 4.43. NFL network was way off. Berry and Earl Thomas from Texas will go before Mays.

              Yeah, unofficial, 4.34 was his 2nd time which is more accurate. I was thinking holy shit when he ran that 4.24, that guy is a freak, no way he could be that fast and he isn't. I agree with him being the 3rd safety off the board as well.

                  Thought this sounded way too fast for him. I mean I knew the kid was quick, but there was talk about how much it'd help him if he was able to run under a 4.4 previously. A 4.24 would have easily made him a top ten pick IMO.

                      Even if he runs a 4.34 its going to move him up in the 10-15 range

                        These NFL scouts are stupid. A forty time is over 50 % why they draft a player. 40 time is so overrated. Football speed and 40 time is very different.
