KJ & NFL Combine Thread

[HugeDeacFan]

Didn't see this anywhere so apologize if a repost. Just saw it posted on Twitter that KJ is skipping the workouts at the Combine today. After skipping the Senior Bowl too, hoping this doesn't backfire on him.

I can't imagine he'd be dumb enough to skip workouts without either an injury or some really good information.

 

[HugeDeacFan]

Hahaha. And he just ran it. 4.52.

Shows what people know on Twitter I guess.

 

[Deac94]

4.52 in his first 40.

 

[IAppreciateIt]

he killed it on the broad jump and vert

Edit thread title? "Internet erroneously believes KJ skipping Combine workout" ??

4.52 in his first 40.

Camp tweeted that he stumbled out of the gate. Interested to see if his next attempt is much better.

I know he wants to be sub-4.5 but 4.52 isn't bad, is it?

Bottom Line
Johnson is a three-year starting cornerback who showed great improvement in man coverage from 2013 to 2014. While he lacks desired weight at the position, his cover skills, athleticism and competitiveness give him a shot to come in and start right away. Johnson can play gunner on special teams.

4.5 is solid speed for a corner taller than 6 feet.

Has Wake's Pro Day been scheduled yet and do we know who might participate?

I saw that J. Winston ran a 4.9 40.

 

[mebanedeac]

Also KJ had a 41" vertical!

 

[Liquid Karma]

4.52 in his first 40.

Using the Josh Harris 40 Time Conversion Chart © that equates to a 4.24.

 

[HugeDeacFan]

4.56 in his second attempt.

I am sure he will want to make sure that he tries to shave off some time in his pro day workout.

Wonder if his push to gain weight made him lose some speed.

The last that I heard it was VERY early this year. One of the first in the country. Something like the 1st week in March. Not sure if that is set in stone though, especially if KJ decides he wants to work out there.

4.52 is respectable. Didn't hurt or help him. The 41.5 vertical and 10'10" broad did help. I believe that the tweet about him not participating in events means he is not doing the drills such as the gauntlet and change of directions.

We'll find out in a min here about the on field drill.
