supposedly correlated with explosiveness for dual threat QBs.

Ridder just ran an UO 4.50 in the 40. His athletic metrics would actually put him at the #8 WR in the combine so far.

Pierce 4.33 unofficial in his first run.

Not. Slow.

Pierce combined athleticism numbers are Top 10 draft pick level... RAS only scores on a 10 point scale...Pierce at a 9.98 is sheer insanity.

Love to see this

Should Dez switch to WR?

Good luck to all the Bearcats!

Quote:Initially, the NFL reported that nine wide receivers had broken the mark, which would have been a record. But overnight, Alec Pierce of Cincinnati saw his time adjusted to 4.41 from 4.33, leaving the previous record intact.

Quote:The other 40-yard dash that might have caused the biggest stir was that of Cincinnati quarterback Desmond Ridder, who -- at 6-foot-3 3/8 inches tall, 211 pounds -- uncorked a 4.52, or better than 12 wide receivers who ran Thursday.

Des helping himself out with his measurables at the combine. Pierce is the athletic freak we all knew he was.

How do they switch a time overnight? That’s weird.

Lots of comments about that...there were a ton of issues with start times being caught by the laser due to the various 3-point stances this time.

It's crazy how an NFL MVP who is considered one of the most elusive QB's in the game, looks incredibly slow on that clip.

Jerome Ford official 4.46 forty...not as fast as many thought, but still a solid time, especially considering he bulked up to 212.

Who thought he was going to go faster than a 4.46? Lol Hardly any running backs go much faster than that.

Maybe RBs are just getting faster over the years but 40 times seems kind of suspect to me this year. It's literally like the fastest class ever by a long shot.

Many draft experts thought he would be one of the fastest RBs this year due to his tape. Plenty of blue checks on Twitter saying Ford's time was surprising inan off way based on his breakaway runs

Is 4.46 not one of the faster backs?
