According to NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah, he was told that Notre Dame S Kyle Hamilton ran in the low 4.7’s in the 40-yard dash at his pro day last week.
This is contrary to the reports that Hamilton (6’4/219) ran a 4.56 in the 40-yard dash at the Notre Dame pro day. At the combine, Hamilton ran an official 4.59-second 40-yard dash, but the report from Jeremiah told a different story. Even though Hamilton plays faster than his reported times, running in the 4.7’s isn’t exactly a great addition to his resume. The Athletic’s Dane Brugler chimed in saying that Hamilton ran 4.70 and 4.74 in his two attempts. Brugler also noted that his teammate Kyren Williams ran slower than his combine time. This will be something to monitor moving forward as his stock could take a hit.
I brought this up well before the combine and the Underwear Olympics… but Hamilton’s lack of ball production and tackles for loss really look suspect if he isn’t able to run a decent time.
Lot of hype there… but where is the actual production that has people so excited about him?
Okay i am fully on the cine/hill/brisker at the end of the 1st or to start the second. Stand by my walker/tibz followed by leal/dean/harris followed by hill/cine/brisker… just dont see hamilton as a 2 overall player and certainly not passing on the potential of walker or tibz for him, and i would love to get an ed reed level eraser just dont think that the athletic profile is proving itself out to be at that level.
I always thought the hype around hamilton resembled the hype around a certain DB being touted for #3 OA but was a huge disappointment. But okudah mattata Whatever will be will be
