Or lets see... 40 yards is 120 feet, so if he could some how jump off the 12th floor of a building and survive the fall, he would most likely post the fastest 40 ever.

At 6'3" and 224 pounds, the guy put up good numbers for a TE. He could "stretch the field". Not to mention the fact that if he can catch balls from Eric "I won't play unless I can play QB" Crouch, he could catch them from anyone. I’m not surprised the Packers are interested.

The whole nation claims that WR is not a position of need for Green Bay, but in a couple years it will be. Driver just turned 33 in February and receivers take a few years to develop. Thompson wouldn't hesitate to pull the trigger on a WR if he thinks he's getting value. Last year, they drafted a DT (Justin Harrell) when everyone said it wasn't filling a need. Well, Williams left and now the Pack has a second year player ready to fill in the rotation. It’s not surprising that the Packers were there at all.

Duds are still dangerous and have to be de-activated and disposed of carefully. By extension, "dud" has become a slang word for anything that doesn't work or is defective."

I would hope he had prepared and ran a few timed 40s. Assuming he did, wouldn't have he been better off simply not running? Choose not to run at the combine, then get an "injury" close to your workout date, do all the other drills, etc. Didn’t Kelly run enough 40s leading up to his personal workout to know he wasn’t going to have a good chance of cracking 4.6?
