Mehhh Matt Elam ran that this year and only got an 88 speed.

he is faster than he looks out there because of his stride and size.

check out 1:21 of the video



also, RG3's 40time is with no pads on. Kap is bigger than RG3, so there is a chance that he is faster or just as fast on the field (wearing the pads). Also Kap ran that 40 at not 100%. I know excuses, excuses...but what is known is that RG3 is comming back from a pretty bad injury and we have to see if he still has the same speed. But I'm sure Tiburon still has him at 93.

but RG3, Russell Wilson, Vick all are more agile than Kap...no question there. But straight line speed, imo Kap is faster or just as fast as RG3. Also Vernon Davis said Kap is one of the top 3 fastest players on the team.

They still need to work on the difference between striders/sprinters and short burst accelerators.

Kaepernick has a higher ACC than SPD for example. This makes little sense. He's not getting caught from behind, but he doesn't have Vick-like acceleration.

Ratings seem better so far than M13's end of season rosters though. A lot more spaced out in skill ratings such as Route Running, Block Shedding, Tackling, Catch In Traffic, etc.

Wow, he is faster than he looks.

RG3 was 'unofficially' clocked at 4.3 with no pads. He's not much smaller. He weighs 223 compared to CKs 230.

Maybe they should bring CK up a couple points in the speed department.

yeah sorry about getting weight wrong, but the way most fans talk about RG3 you would think he was like 210 something. So I made the mistake of presuming as well.

if they moved Kap up to 90, I'd be fine with that...and just see how the season goes if there needs to be more adjustment afterwords.

the only reason I say that is because this past off-season Kap was working with Olympic runners in Atlanta to improve his speed. To not have any wasted motion when he runs. He said he feels faster, so we'll have to see.

what's funny is that I don't even run with Kaepernick when I play. I'm a pocket passer and I play 99% under the center. All this lobbying I'm doing is just out of respect of what an amazing athlete Colin is...but it will also probably bite me in the behind, when I face 9er teams online that constantly run with Kaepernick...lol.

The greatest thing about M25 is that you don't have to settle on Donny Moore's ratings. If you feel Kap is faster, make him fast. No one is right or wrong when it comes to ratings. Madden share will have plenty to choose from after a few weeks of release.
