He said it was before then and tried to push through it. Which can viewed as even dumber due to the already existing questions regarding his height.

If you know people are doubting you. Why give them any validation to doubt you? Just say "my film speaks for itself" and don't run to put any further doubt out there. The only way running a 40 could've helped him is if he was running sub 4.45s.

There's also the outlook that the young man is willing to run through a brick wall if needed.... There's no way to really know if he was getting drafted regardless if he ran or not... too many factors at play.... But we do know the young man got a ton of heart and isn't afraid of anything thrown at him.... Stuff like that will keep him a spot on an NFL roster for a spell....

I have a feeling they don't teach our players how to conduct interviews. Like, you gotta learn to flip the narrative on these mfers

I saw the dolphins in the end zone when in high school. I think the ticket was $1.

not sure they are worth $1 anymore. GM Grier is a joke who can’t be fired. HC Mikey is a one or two trick pony who DCs quickly figured out.

And today the fins drafted a **** gator. I’m trying to move on to a new team. Maybe TN
 
Their second best draft pick is an UDFA. Amazing. Home run of a signing. This is in no way a knock on the other dudes they drafted, by the way. It's the instant chemistry he gives you with your rookie QB that is invaluable.
 
Look its better to be UDFA than a 7th rounder.
And if he truly was injured when he ran his ****** 40, then I'm confident he will earn a spot on the team. Because if he's actually a 4.55 type of guy, then he's got the film and talent. Its possible this actually works out in his favor. He'll be on a 3yr deal instead of 4 year deal and open to extend after 2 seasons. Year 1 he'll likely be Wr4/5 in rotation, and hopefully next season wins a starting job. And then he's already negotiating a new deal

The bad news is they spent early 4th on **** so he's making team. Ridley, Jefferson, Lockett are the top 3 Wrs. Ayomanor was very underdrafted and should make the roster. So that's 5. Teams typically don't keep 7. So that means he's competing with Treylon Burks (former 1st rounder, but different regime and he's been complete ***), James Proche, and a few others. I think its down to Burks and Restrepo for 6th spot. Also Burks is probably the same role Ayomanor/**** would be filling so thats a good thing too. As well as the fact he has a head start on the connection with Cam already. Also wouldn't be surprised for him to be a PS guy or have a "season ending injury" that puts him stashed on IR for a year. Lockett is probably just a 1yr guy, Burks aint going to be back unless he breaks out.

If people were drafted solely based off of work ethic and production it would be different and I agree with you but strength of character and willingness to work do not mean much in the NFL. Running the 40 1000% dropped him from late round to UDFA. It's technically impossible to say for certain but I will not be convinced him running a 4.8 did NOT ruin his draft stock.
 
He's always been an underdog. He has that warrior, survivor mentality. He will make the 53 man roster for the titans.
Already the best hands on the team, and he knows Cam inside and out & vice versa.

I probably care more that he went undrafted than he does.

The NFL drafted a lot of players that won't be as good as X in the NFL. He's slow as ****, unfortunately, and he had a misguided off-season process. He can still play football. I think at an NFL level.

Cam took care of him and will make sure the Tennessee staff sees Restrepo shine in practice and pre-season games with him. But I thought a lot if the top QBs would have liked a guy like him to at least get a draft pick...I guess he just has to prove it with Cam. The 4.8 really sucked. But as was pointed out, he was slow doing combine drills too. Always looked just fast enough to me.

Legit question , not bashing but you think sitting out the bowl game hurt his stock at all ?
