[Highlight] Texas WR Xavier Worthy runs a blazing 4.25u 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine

Could be a trade back option. Won’t make it past KC that’s for sure.
Tying the 40 record probably locks him in the 1st.
Edit: Official 4.21. Fastest 40 ever. Very tempting but don’t know if Ballard drafts a WR who weighs 165. But, that speed is rare to come by so who knows he might look past it like with Downs last year.
4.22 unofficially, on his second attempt as well!
His size is a concern for me, he measured smaller than he was initially believed to be
Texas had him listed as 6’1 and 172 lbs and he measured at 5’11 and 165 lbs
I prefer Adonis
There are so many potential burners in this draft that if you are looking for someone to attack vertically, you are almost guaranteed to find one in the second. ‘Tez Walker, Worthy, etc. there is so much value to found outside of the first.
Dawg. Would love him in the second but he’ll probably be gone by then
Big thing about Worthy is that he’s not just a blow past you kinda receiver. Dude had 1000 yards as a freshman, mostly catching underneath balls. He knows how to get past folks in the open field. Very Desahun Jackson like.
Imagine richardson’s rocket with a tyreek hill 2.0
Saw a graph on twitter the other day that showed something to the effect of the 40 yard dash being the competition that carries over to WR talent the least. Something like the faster they were the worse they usually were, with Tyreek and DK being two exceptions.
Obviously that doesn’t mean he’s going to be terrible, just an interesting thing I saw that I hadn’t had a chance to bring up yet.
