| 0:04.8 | And now, Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. |
| 0:11.1 | Hey, friends, welcome back from Indianapolis. |
| 0:13.4 | This is Move the Sticks, as we get set for day three of the scouting combine on-field workouts. |
| 0:20.7 | We are looking back for you today on day two. |
| 0:23.8 | Red Lewis, Bucky Brooks, Lance Arline, back here for you. |
| 0:27.2 | And, you know, I think this is an appropriate way to begin the conversation by telling you it is time for hot or not, presented by Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage. |
| 0:37.2 | That track, when the DVs got on the field, hot, buddy. |
| 0:42.5 | Hot. |
| 0:43.0 | And it didn't matter how big or small you were because they were putting up some fast times out there. |
| 0:48.8 | And I don't want to toot the old horn, but somebody on this set yesterday said Maxwell |
| 0:53.1 | Harrison probably going to run the fastest 40 time. Somebody said that. Somebody said it. Oh, really? I don't remember who. Do you guys remember? It doesn't matter. It came from that side of the table. This side had a fast guy, but not that, not the fastest guy. 4-28, our first and only 4-2.40-yard dash so dash so far the combine comes from kentucky's |
| 1:13.1 | maxwell harriston who was terrific on tape too especially in 23 when he had the five picks |
| 1:17.8 | but let's talk about a few more guys who uh ran a blazing fast 40 time here buck what stood out to you |
| 1:23.5 | i mean look one just overall group just the the athleticism that is in the DB group continues to impress. And a lot of times we talk about DBs as if they're second class citizens when it comes to the wide receiver class. But DBs have talented athletes. I've told them I like to talk about them as decathletes. And I think we saw a bunch of talented guys. You can talk about Harrison. We can talk about Marin. |
| 1:45.0 | We can talk about so many guys that have great tape and great athleticism that they put on display. |
| 1:50.7 | And whether they worked out or not doing the drills, to me, the measurement portion of the event allowed us to have some of the sizzle that we all covet when we come to this combine. Right. And, you know, they're getting aware, you know, you're starting to have to split hairs. Okay, this guy's fast, but how did he jump? You know, when you're just, now once again, that's only, this is just the athletic portion of it. But then you go, what do you look like in the drills? And there were some guys that ran fast that did not look good in the drills. So, you know, there's a big difference between being a guy who can run fast in a straight line and being somebody who can get out of your brakes can, you know, can plant and drive quickly on the throw because that's where you get your ball production. That's where you break passes up. It's great that you can run fast, but can you play football? |
| 2:37.2 | So there is a combination. |
| 2:39.0 | The Underwear Olympics thing is something that sometimes annoys me |
| 2:43.0 | because there's way more than that here at the combine. |
| 2:47.2 | But it is interesting to see the speed, then the explosiveness, and then the football |
