I think we have one of them. Jameson Williams. Might we have the fastest RB in our new guy? Gibbs?
Forget about 40 times.
I think the two fastest guys in the NFL not wearing a Lions jersey are:
Tyreek Hill
Deebo Samuel
I’ve never seen Gibbs play, but his 40 is a sub 4.3
I’ve seen Williams play, and he just outruns the corners.
Hill and Samuel - they are legit speedsters.
So my friends, am I correct?
7-8th game this year, it’s 3rd and long - pick your poison!
Deebo’s fast but I wouldn’t put him in the world class tier. He’s just so aggressive and decisive when he runs it makes it seem like he’s faster than he is. He’s fast - don’t get me wrong - I just don’t think he’s in the same stratosphere as Tyreek, Waddle, Mostert, Jamo, etc…
We have 1 guy who might possibly run a sub 4.3 in Jamo. And we have no proof of this. Gibbs ran a 4.36. The fastest i can find for starling was a 4.37. They said that was slow for him but it was hand timed so… kalif ran a 4.34.
Sub 4.3 is rare. Not even Best ran that fast.
Deebo isnt one of the top 100 fastest players in the nfl lol
Deebo Samuel 40-yard dash at NFL Combine
Officially, Samuel ran a 4.48 40-yard dash at that year’s combin
Gibbs is interesting to watch. He is “world class” in his ability to accelerate and burst in a 20 yard area. Some of the things he does isn’t too far off from CJ2K. But where they differ is once they get beyond that distance.
I never knew Khalif was such a speedster. Has he shown it for us? Deebo ran a 4.48 in the combine? Did he fall at the end and crawl the last 5 yards?
I’m talking game speed!!! JAMO has it. And so does Deebo. I believe I mentioned this was not about combine 40 times. Game speed. JAMO, Deebo, Hill and Waddle have it. Who called Mostert? That’s a great call. He can move.
Mosert is the fastest dude in league. I am almost positive he has the fastest in game speeds the last 3-4 years.
Deebo is not even top 20 in game speed.
I would definitely put Jameson in that tier. I don’t know who is the actual fastest, but there are just some guys who "look different’ when they run. I would say Jaylen Waddle is another guy in that tier, off the top of my head.
