I think Thomas's 40 time was 4.7 (I'm channeling a comment by Silverstein), so he is more like a small linebacker than a big safety. If Thomas were faster, I bet he would not have been available on a practice squad. He is just fast enough, and maybe he "plays fast". Was Richardson faster? I 'spect so. -
That could be, but then he is quickest with his first couple of steps, because he moves around like no other LB except Matthews. And he has covered RBs in wheel routes better than Palmer, who was doing OK.Originally posted by Harlan Huckleby View PostBud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs.

They got a big, fast DB on the PS. Seems the only thing he lacks is experience...(and I would bet a Harlan-like score on the Wonderlic!): Robertson Daniel, 6'1", 209 lbs....Originally posted by Harlan Huckleby View Post

He has an impressive combination of size, length and athleticism that stands out on film, using his long arms to wrap tackle, force fumbles (three) or disrupt the catch point (26 passes defended at BYU). Daniel played mostly off-coverage in college with the thought process of a safety, but shows the skill-set to play nose-to-nose in press. He doesn't have ideal twitch or technique and is always flirting with trouble (suspended for 2014 season opener), but Daniel has the competitive chops, ballskills and toughness to be a developmental option.--Dane Brugler
Player Overview
A no-star defensive back recruit out of high school, Robertson "Rob" Daniel quit football during his senior year at Branham because of constant run-ins with the coaches. He enrolled at De Anza Junior College and spent three seasons there, developing into a FBS-level recruit. Daniel arrived at BYU as a safety, but moved to cornerback and started 22 games the last two years (field corner as a junior, boundary corner as a senior).One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Also forgot Gunter. He's pretty big. But neither he nor Daniel is a safety. Could help with a TE.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.Comment
