Ted Ginn runs in the 4.3's at his workout. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/draft0...ory?id=2833744

Not to bad after he injured his foot a few months ago. Would have liked to see what he would have been able to run if he was 100% healthy.

So he actually didn't disappoint? Nice. Could be a potential top 10 pick. His hands through aren't exactly as large as teams would wish for the WR role, so I guess I won't be suprised if he does eventually end up on the CB position. The next Hester of the league.

If I had a mid to late round first round pick, I would take Ginn in a hearbeat. As Hester proved last year or Tony Horne for the Rams in 1999, or Andre Coleman for the Chargers in 94, etc etc, return touchdowns can break the back of the other team, not to mention anytime you get big time plus field position due to your return game, it can make a HUGE difference in the game.

Pac Man Jones ability to get big returns for the Titans last year, provided a short field for them to work late in some games that made it much easier for them to get late victories last year. Field position and turnovers are imo, the top two factors in a teams success on the field.

I just don't like how raw he is as a prospect.

California RB Marshawn Lynch is a cinch for the first round.

Think Pacman Jones' year-long suspension won't impact where teams have Lynch on their draft boards? Jones was involved in one off-field incident before the Titans selected him with the No. 6 pick in 2005. The organization researched it, and concluded that Pacman was not at fault. The same argument has been made for Lynch's involvement in a drive-by shooting at Cal and a sexual assault charge police failed to pursue just after the Bears' season ended. But throw in an embarrassing 4.58 short shuttle, two forties in the 4.5s, a reported bad back, and we have a mid to late second-round prospect.

Ginn's ankle was only 75% healthy by the way. Also he had some problems running routes (ankle problems). I think it was obvious by the workout, Ginn wasn't scared and thus didn't work out, he was actually injured and couldn't have.

Rutgers TE Clark Harris got a 40 on the Wonderlic. Which obviously means nothing but damn that's pretty impressive. It was on a blog at Draftdaddy, got it from a Rutgers forum. Don't know if it is accurate or not.
