NFl Combine

Peterson ran a 4.38, he was the 2nd fastest running back there. Lynch was in the 4.5 area.

Greg Olsen ran a 4.45 which was one of the best times for a TE in the history of the combine.

The combine still uses stop watches but you cant get any kind of rolling start. You have to be in a still position for at least a half second.

I didn't know they still used stop watches in the combine.

I thought they used electronic timing, and I thought they had some sort of motion sensing device that started the clock on the first movement.

That sounds more like it to me.....That is what I was thinking.

[imported_Coach]

they had a great segment on sportscenter about how important the 40 is at the combine.

[imported_trio]

hmm maybe I was looking at lynch, thats more like a peterson time though

David Clowney ran a 4.36...could move him into the first day

[Rich_Kotite]

Its hand timed, all the coaches sitting in the stands have pretty precise instruments to allow them to get the 10 time, the 20 time, and the 40 time. Its a little more extravigant than a stop watch but its basically a stop watch. Mike Mayock had a segment on it. Thats one reason they never have offical times right away.
