40 times don’t always correlate well to game speed and quickness, and some guys just don’t test well when tested in these weird artificial ways like straight line sprinting and all the stuff they do at the combine. If this guy is a good football player, I’d say draft him. While I like our receivers, I still feel like we don’t have a true #1. Pittman is a possession receiver, Campbell is true wideout but ceiling is as a #2 type guy. Pierce needs another year to get a feel for what he can do. OL and pass rush are bigger needs but I wouldn’t necessarily pass on someone who can be a true #1 wideout assuming that is true for Jr.

Anquan Boldin is a prime example. Ran a 4.7 40 and fell to the 2nd round. Ended up playing 14 seasons, winning a Super Bowl, and making 3 pro bowls

One of the best wide receivers of the 2000’s.

Harrison has not made up his mind yet as to whether or not he will enter the 2023 NFL draft, or stay on for another year at Ohio State.

If he's getting 1st round money in NIL deals, why stay?

I don't know. Maybe he likes being in college.

Patrick Ewing won a national championship and an Olympic Gold Medal in 1984, and he chose to go back to Georgetown for another year instead of being the #1 overall pick in the NBA draft. When he was a star for the Knicks in the NBA in 1988, he said that he sometimes wished that he were still in college.
