He also took a small tumble towards the end.

The legend of Shamarko grows! 4.38 even with a face plant!

He will improve on that in the next run. His drive phase was a little sloppy. Think he will be able to go sub 4.35.

 

[moten21]

No mention of the face plant he did at the finish line?

Think he will run even faster his second attempt - he reached a bit early at the end.

 

[AAM62]

Prime time showed him love!

The NFL.com commentators said Shamarko's concussion history is a big red flag for his draft potential. I hope he runs a sub 4.35 2nd time.

 

[jekelish]

Someone else ran a 4.35 so Shamarko is only the second fastest safety right now. That's going to fire him up and he'll run a 4.33 or a 4.34 to regain the lead.

Face plant wasn't pretty, but he's gonna get PAID so who cares.

I doubt Shamarkos second time will be faster. That tumble will prevent that IMO. He will be fine though.

Also remember these times are unofficial, official times are almost always slower and usually around 0.05 slower than the unofficial.

You lost me. How does the tumble affect his next try or "prevent" a faster time next one?

Why is this "unofficial"?

 

[Old hank]

the nfl doesnt release the actual times until after

So who has "released" 4.38?

The unofficial is Charlie Casserly using a stop watch. The official is the laser times that get released at the end of the day.

As for the tumble, it's going to off-set his body's balance, and couple that with the fact that in the past 5 years of me watching the combine, nobody who has tumbled on their first run has improved their time the second run (which is admittedly a small sample size of tumblers), and the general concept that the second run is about 75-80% of the time slower than the first anyways. What tends to stay consistent is the 10 and 20 yard splits. Long-speed fatigue tends to show through on the second run in form of about 3 hundredths of a second.

If I were a betting man, Shamarko runs a 4.40 flat this run, and his official comes back as a 4.42.

 

[Libero2]

And his second 40 is a 4.41

Ding ding ding called it, a 3 hundredths of a second difference.

 

[jekelish]

4.41 on the second run. That's not too shabby.

And Mike Mayock just talked about how explosive his butt is, or something. So good work on that, SHAMARKO.

took his braids out!

OFFICIAL TIME: 4.42, the fastest of all safeties.

 

[SoBeCuse]

Mayock and Charles Davis really like him.

 

[jekelish]

Right now, Shamarko is:

1st of all safeties in the 40
1st of all safeties in the bench
T-1st of all safeties in vertical
2nd of all safeties in broad jump

That's why he's #SHAMARKO

Unofficially

Thanks for the explanation.

Called the official 4.42 as well. Damn I'm good at this.

SHAMARKO! is getting a pretty big fan in Primetime right now.
