Golden Nuggets: Is Smelter faster than a speeding bullet?

Related Topics: San Francisco 49ers, Hamstring

As everyone knows by now, 6’-2” 226 pound DeAndre Smelter has recently joined the 49ers practice squad after recovering from an ACL tear and then hamstring problems earlier this year. Wait a second, he lost 15 pounds. If you happen to see it laying around, you may want to give him a call. Anyway, he is down to a svelte 210 pounds.

How fast is he? nfldraftscout has his times listed as (low 4.42), (time 4.52), (high 4.63) but I think it is all speculation. Bleacher Report calls him “big, fast, and productive”.
