[QUOTE="Boomergump, post: 52374, member: 639"] Dwyer was never caught by anybody who didn't have an angle. Never. Not that I remember anyway. So the word "almost" can probably be removed. You are quite correct when talking about speed. Probably the most effectively fast player in the secondary of the game of football was Deion Sanders and even he didn't have amazing 40 times when compared to others. However, if you timed him from yard 5 until yard 45 he would blow away the field. His closing speed was ridiculous. What do football players really need to have in terms of speed? Well, I guess it depends on position. I will say this much though, a guys ability to change direction and accelerate over 10-20 yard distances, in short bursts, will be tested 20 fold over his top end speed during the course of any contest. It is just the nature of the game. [/QUOTE]
