At 6'3 263lbs just ran a (4.62) 40 yard dash! So lets put an end to all this B.S that he can't play effectively in a 4-3 scheme as a MLB.

So what's his 40 time have to do with him being able to play MLB ? So fast forty times mean you are a great players?

Game tape does not lie. The guy flat out plays. Would love to land him but that's very doubtful now.

Don't act like if he ran a 5.0, you would be saying your not concerned with the 40 time.

That's a good 40 but it's change of direction you have to worry about with a body that big.

FRG is the most logical poster on this board.  You guys just don\'t like where the logical conclusions take you.

Agree..he'll probably go late 20's.

Actually the problem isnt that Freeman stinks. He is average. He puts up good numbers just often enough to make you think he is better than he is. Bad and great are convincing. But mediocre makes you live with the delusion for too many years. He is just good enough to waste our time and not good enough to get us where we want to go.

Have a feeling Ravens may snag him to play situational ball while he learns from the best.

Ran just as fast as lavonte David and faster than Sean Spence while carrying almost 30 more lbs!

Again, would rather reach for him at 5 than take David or Spence or Brown in the second.

Agreed, but he looked pretty good from what I saw. I was a bit surprised to be honest.

Yeah, I haven't seen what he did in the shuttle or other agility drills. I'm just speaking in general terms.
