Cook ran a garbage 40 which tanked his value. I assume Guice’s draft position was before he blew his ACL in the opener of the preseason.

Huh...?

Yeah, Dalvin's 40 was sub 4.5. It was the 3 cone, 20 yard shuttle, and vert/broad he did not do well at. 3 cone is great for sinking guys who sink their hips really well, so to speak, which Dalvin doesn't. Heard Matt Waldman use a mathematical term for Dalvin which is bang on. Curvilinear Motion. It's motion that occurs when a particle travels along a curved path. He excels at that. That's why you see him on a football field looking like he is an elite athlete without testing as one. The 3 cone measure a very specific type of agility, which he lacks, same with the 20 yard shuttle. He does not use those movements, typically, as a football player. Dalvin excels at switching direction subtly at very high speeds, along a curve path, not at hard angles as the combine tests.

Yes, accurate. Misremembered what he tanked at the combine.
