Any Patriots fan worried about the team only holding the No. 21 pick in the first round of this year’s draft can rest a bit easier after watching the NFL Combine this weekend. What transpired over the previous four days might have just been the most insane combine workout we’ve ever seen.
In fact, the event produced the fastest average 40-yard dash time (4.71 seconds) of all time and the most players to break the 4.4 barrier ever (31).
But lest you think it was just about 40 times, you also had 340-pound defensive linemen broad-jumping more than 10 feet and measuring in with the wingspans of pterosaurs.
