Elijah Holyfield did not improve 40 time at pro day.

[ryantlanta 826]

He had good college production seems faster in pads. Maybe a late round pick?

Sheesh. Had a good year at Georgia too. Hopefully someone picks him up and let's him develop. Feel that he could still be a really good power back in the NFL

maybe the UGA homers will stop with the love for this kid. No thank you

[Falconsin2012 11,533]

They should run the 40 in pads and helmet.

He's definitely powerful no denying that but I wasn't sold on him to begin with either. I'd much rather a recovering Bryce Love before him or even that RB from penn state

UDFA

Highly doubtful he gets picked at all imo

Agreed!

Yeah analyst were banking on him having a much better pro day because he had a bad combine. Sucks but sometimes on field success just doesn't translate

Develop his 40?

[metatron360 286]

Elijah isn't your speed player but he can block and his avg in the NFL will be 5.5 to 6 ypc with a high after contact. 

Turner the burner wasn't blowing down the field either but watching him was alot of fun

[FalconFanSince1969 9,103]

I'd rather trade a late rounder for Jordan Howard... 

[B_84falcons 285]

I meant develop in general. He seemed to have some very good success at Georgia I can see him being a bruiser back. He worked with Christian Coleman the track star (holds 40 yard dash indoor record) so shocking he didn't improve his time at all

[B_84falcons 285]

Josh Jacobs ran a pretty underwhelming time as well 4.63-4.67 which wasn't expected

4 different 40 times all in pads:

• One on grass
• One on turf
• One on grass with cones (cutting).
• One on turf with cones (cutting).

[Falconsin2012 11,533]

A 4.9 is awful

Howard rotating in on 1st and 2nd down with Freeman on all downs...  I like...

Something like that.  When do you ever run 40 yards in a straight line during a game

Huh? 

[TheHeartless 192]

Guy should transition to a FB putting that time up

Perfect. Gives you a overall analysis imo. You could be a blazer but not translate to having pads on

He planning on leading the NFL in ypc?  This isn’t the SEC anymore

[hjerry 21,921]

I'm not sure why it matters really

Still take with a late rounder

Turner had breakaway speed, don't know what you're smoking. That's the reason he was called the Burner.

Zero chance he has 5.5-6 ypc.

Holyfield just isn't that good.

[FinalScore2.0 679]

Michael Turner ran a 4.49 at the combine at 237 lbs. That's why he was the burner
