Several of the most well-known names at the receiver position ran very respectable 40 times today at the combine. However, a no-name prospect has created by far the most buzz.
Abilene-Christian wide receiver Johnny Knox (who?) ran a 4.25, a blazing time by anyone's standards.
So will Johnny Knox be this year's overdrafted flavor based on incredible workouts? Last year, the Cincinnati Bengals drafted little-known Jerome James in the second round after he posted some amazing numbers at the combine, and they didn't see much of a return on their investment in his rookie year.
Either way, it will be interesting to see where Knox is eventually drafted.

Did You Know?
ReplyDeleteOne of Patriots owner Robart Kraft's 3 Super Bowl rings was reportedly stolen by Vladimir Putin? Kraft made a PR statement maintaining that he gave the ring to Putin out of respect for the Russian people, but several close sources, including Kraft's wife, claim the "gift" was not freely given.
A Putin/Bellichick spat, if it ever happened, would pit the two most undeniably cold-blooded white men of the early 21st century against each other.
