Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
But as Profootballtalk.com suggests,
we really can't be sure about Brooks' numbers. It was repeatedly said on SportsCenter Thursday that Richardson registered “a 4.4 forty.” The times relayed by ESPN3?s live broadcast were 4.58 and 4.58, “unofficially.” In his Pro Day review, SI.com draft analyst Tony Pauline wrote that Richardson “failed to run an elite 40 time. ...” While there was no consensus on Richardson’s forty time, he did 25 reps of 225 pounds on the bench and told ESPN’s Merril Hoge following the workout that he was “mad” he didn’t run a 4.3. ... Meanwhile, Richardson, who
had his knee scoped on Feb. 3, has pre-draft private workouts set up with the Cleveland Browns and Tampa Bay Bucs. He is considered likely to be drafted either by the Browns at No. 4 or Bucs at No. 5.
