But not necessarily 100-meter speed.I think it’s over rated for lineman but not for skill guys.

We’ll no but when a guy is really fast over 100 meters he’s usually fast over 40 yards and 20 yards and so forth. It’s a good predictor of straight line speed.
Yes and no. When you’re talking guys with that elite speed, some may be just as explosive at 10-20 yards but don’t clock well at 100m. Some may be more explosive at 5-10 yards. Some guys stop and turn faster than guys that run a fast 100m. Some guys can control their speed far better, make a cut/slant and explode faster. Some guys run faster in pads and cleats and in the 4th Q. Judging speed between really fast guys using the 100m is somewhat archaic in football. Straight line movement over 100m or anything close to that distance in general is so rare except for special teams players, it’s such a poor indicator of ability unless the guy is running ridiculously slow 100m
the whole point was speed not ability and you’re adding a million variables to it. This is really simple. Kids running sub 11 100m are really fast there’s no arguing otherwise. Pena running an 11.05 is fast.
I'm not saying the kid isn't fast. But a half second is a huge difference in the sprints.Can you please explain how that's 'not fast at all' and provide some data?
Maybe you saw what SuTomcast posted for Syracuse 100m times? Anyone running a sub 11 is elite type speed and would be considered in a small group of the fastest football players in the country.
Georgia WR Demetris Roberston is considered one of the fastest guys in the country clocking a 4.35 - 40 and ran a 10.77 100m while on the Cal track team. Jabrill Peppers ran a 10.52 in NJ High School. I mean we're talking a 1/2 second or less difference here.
Trebor doesn't have elite speed but make no mistake he's fast. We don't even know how much effort/training he put into track.
Looks like he's about to flip to Rutgers

watched the NFL greatest player shows and on the DB one the video of darryl green chasing down Dickerson and TD tells me what fast really is
Until bo Jackson anywaysNo doubt. But Darrel Green was long considered the fastest man in the NFL.
That shouldn't be the benchmark against which we measure incoming frosh.
I'm pretty sure most still considered Green to be faster. Bo being as fast as he was at his size was sickUntil bo Jackson anyways
