seanskins Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 I am shocked that Ahmen Green ran that fast, I had no idea he was that quick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js161 Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 I would like to see him as the return man. Morton can go back to the Jets. Does anyone know what Darrell Green's fast 40 time was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCS Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Ok...so Brown is fast , ( "Wow. Fast." "Yeah. Sounded like it". ), and if one takes a few games last year into account, he's a threat when returning and could spell the end of Morton's career with the Skins, ( such as it was). Now, about that thread title. ( Just going with the trend here). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingchris626 Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Randal Williams! That's just ridiculous. But who was the fastest ever? Wasn't it James Jett? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavy Jumbo Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Originally posted by MCnDaHouse With all the clamor when we originally signed Morton, I wonder why there has not been much talk about trading him? Guess you haven't been around long enough. I seem to remember there being a lot of threads suggesting we dump Morton a year or so ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flexxskins Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Originally posted by Paydirt Darrell clocked the 40 in 4.15 seconds. Where did you get this info? I ask because I remember Darrell Green himself saying that his fastest time was a 4.26. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamJT13 Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 The fastest hand-held time I've ever seen Green credited with by a legitimate source was 4.18 seconds. From Len Pasquarelli's column on March 27, 2002 -- "Longtime league general manager Bobby Beathard, who once timed Redskins cornerback Darrell Green in an astounding 4.18 seconds ...

Paydirt Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 http://darrellgreen.sportscombine.c...&nHL_Page=1 "While running track at Texas A&I during the 1982-1983 season, Darrell Green recorded the fastest time in the world in the 100 meter dash. " "Over the course of 25 years, Darrell clocked a 44.3 second 400-meter dash, 20.5 second 200-meter dash, 10.08 second 100-meter dash, and a 4.15 40-yard dash. In the summer of 2004, at the age of 44, Darrell showed that his techniques still work when he recorded a 4.36 40-yard dash during a running demonstration at a youth summer football camp."

jrfriedm Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 When did Portis make this comment? I agree that Morton days as a Redskin are numbered, and that Brown will probably take over return duties, and I don't think that he could do any worse.

Paydirt Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I think we need to make sure we keep a capable backup plan in place in case Antonio can't cure his case of dropsies. Now, that plan doesn't necessarily have to include Morton. It could, I suppose, include Santana Moss. But, I think I heard he had an off year in that department last year. And, I don't know what might be needed as a plan B for kick versus punt returning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSF Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 And the current NFL players who have been HAND-TIMED in 4.18 seconds or less in the NFL or college, as reported by legitimate sources -- Randal Williams 4.04 Joey Galloway 4.15 Randy Moss 4.15 DeAngelo Hall 4.15 Trung Canidate 4.16 Laveranues Coles 4.16 (Deion Sanders 4.17 -- not a current player, yet) Donte Stallworth 4.17 Ahman Green 4.18 Antonio Brown 4.18 ------------------------- Man, whoever timed those times was a little jumpy. Every one of those is low, and Randall Williams running a 4.04 is complete BS. The guy most have stopped the clock at about 33 yards.:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phanatic Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Hand timed? Those are quite imaginative numbers but then again, "hand timing" has always led to the imagination.:jerk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingdomBankcard Posted May 6, 2005 Author Share Posted May 6, 2005 He's quicker than lightning. That boy's quicker than a hiccup," cornerback Shawn Springs said afterward. "He's blazing fast." Shawn Springs talking about Santana Moss at practice yesterday and A. Brown is just as fast. I don't know what D. Patten speed is but I know he was the fastest on the Pat's, he was there deep threat.

Paydirt Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I think this kind of speed may serve us well at WR and kick returning. Can you say "Smurfs II"? I think we've got some TE's and other WR that can serve as "possession" receivers. I'm kind of warming up to our WR situation a little more after hearing Springs' comments.

Paydirt Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I'm not highly excited about Jacobs. I am hoping he can take things to another level this year. It takes most WRs several years to develop into something useful in the NFL. I think because Jacobs was a fairly high draft pick, most folks are hoping that will pay off. I don't think that everyone is falling over themselves to get a glimpse of him, though. I think that's a bit exagerated. On the other hand, I wouldn't totally discount his potential at this point yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paydirt Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I was assuming that "sonsofwashington" was alluding to my comment about us having some WRs that could serve as possession receivers. If not, I think you're right. He's lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
