I'm just thinking out loud here, but when was the last time we had a RB with good top-end speed? We have had guys recently with good quickness and elusiveness, but whenever they get to at least the second level, they end up getting beat down the stretch. I haven't been around forever like some of you guys so feel free to fill me in. Lol

We have a couple of kids now that have clocked with 4.4 40's Jamauri Bogan and Trevor Sweeney. Hopefully one or both will make their mark on the field this year.
Brian Fields was timed also at 4.4 but seemed to be a step slower once past the secondary

Yeah, I'm hoping one of our new speedy guys can become any every-down back and actually use their 40 time when it matters.
