This isn't true at all. He ran a 4.49 at his Pro Day which would have been top 10 for all WR's at the combine. (Ridley ran a 4.46 for reference). He also plays to on tape his time speed if not faster.

Taylor Gabriel ran a 4.27. He is particularly fast.

Anthony Miller is simply in an acceptable range for a WR. Calling him a small, fast WR is not accurate.

4.27 is record/elite time. 4.4 speed is fast. plenty fast. You only have to be concerned when you have 4.5+ times. Calling him "not particulary fast' isn't accurate either. On tape he's got very good explosion.

He's 1 hundredth of a second from that 4.5.

Explosion is another trait and is measured better with things like long/high jump than 40 time.

I'm not troubled that much by the 40 time as he is most likely going to play slot.

Miller is considered to be less fast than average. His whole letter he wrote is all about that. Still, he looks average in pads, though. 40 times don’t always translate to speed when the pads are on.

Looks like he plays fast in pads. I prefer that to the guy who is only fast at a track meet.

Miller also spent yesterday shitting on Lebron on Twitter. You better love this kid or you are going to have to answer to me.

Remember Michael Bennett who played for Wisconsin and then the Vikes? He was a sprinter, but I always thought he looked slow and robotic on the field.

Jerry Rice played way faster in pads than his numbers indicated.

Tom Brady couldn't bench 100 pounds.

That’s why it’s funny you’re pumped. We can’t draft cornerbacks for shit despite multiple attempts every year at it. You guys can’t decelop receivers for shit and when you occasionally do you let them go on 1 year and 2 year cheap deals for no compensation. If this Miller guy is any good he’ll be a Redskin or Bronco by 2023.
You're the guy who says Cam Meredith is pretty good, and the Bears developed him.

Yes, and they let him go on a two year deal without compensation.
