    Dawson ran a 4.93 at the combine!!! I don't care how instinctive you are - if you can only run a 4.9 from the LB position?? You can't play in the NFL.

    He ran a 4.76 at his pro day, but that isn't much better.

    He looks very good on tape, but I'm a better athlete than he is, and I'm racked with arthritis!!

    That said, he'd be the perfect TT pick... "... just a good football player". Will give TT the opportunity to say that 26 times during his presser.

    Numbers according to NFL Draft Scout

    Chris Borland: 4.83 40 (4.81 at Pro Day), 114" broad, 31" vert, 27 bench
    Denzel Perryman: 4.78 40, 113" broad, 32" vert, 27 bench

    Never say never. Dude looks like a carbon copy of Borland. Both highly productive in college too. Of course, we passed on Borland, so Perryman might not have hit the measurables that TT desires. Say what you will about Hawk, but he was at the top when he was drafted in measurables.
