    APPARENTLY, THE POINT IS TO GIVE YOU THE OPPORTUNITY TO BRAG ABOUT YOURSELF.

    YOU PASS

    I think i can be an ideal tight end if The gang green gives me a chance. I have good size and strength for my age and i believe i can bring a ring to petrozza and the organization.

    I disagree there, 225 is not an amzing amount but it's not light and I'd say most can't though alot can.

    I believe you guys about the bench presses but I'd probably subtract about .4 second off of everyone's claimed 40 time. taking your all time best time from everytime your friend ever timed you after football practice doesn't count. there's no way half the people here can outrun vilma, let alone santana moss- which a couple of you are claiming.

    My estimated combine scores:
    wonderlic: better than dan marino x2 (which isn't saying much)
    40 yard dash: faster than jason fabini (5.1 seconds maybe?)
    bench press: 0 (though I can put up 225 a couple of times on a decline bench)
    height: 6-2
    weight: less than all but a couple of punters

    I haven't benched in years, and my 40 time is probably about 4 minutes. I may do alright on the wonderlic, though.

    I'd dominate the cone drill, my reflexes and moves are freakish. 40? when i played i'd say i ran a 4.7, i was also smoking at that time too. Now that i quit i run about a solid 5 :lol:

    That is difficult to believe.... sorry. I ran a 4.6 forty in high school.... Hicksville HS, and I was one of the fastest guys in Nassau county division one football. A 4.3 is world class speed. That would get you a free ride in NCAA Division One track.

    I could bench 225, but I don't think much more than 5 or 6 times. What I COULD do, seemingly forever, was the whole rack at the leg bench (I think it was 550 pounds) on the universal gym. It was almost effortless.

    Sounds like a good way to do it...

    Wonderlic: I'd say in the 30-35 range... I'm pretty smart, but I sometimes like to take my time and think stuff out...

    40 Yard-Dash: 4.85.. That's what I ran at the start of this football season... There's no way some of you guys run the 40s you say you do.. The record holder for the 100 meter in my school runs a 4.5... I doubt you guys are that fast...

    Bench Press: 8-10 reps... If I trained to it for a couple weeks we could push that to 12 probably..

    Height: 6'0

    Weight: 182

    Vertical Leap: -12 inches... Haha, I cannot jump vertically at all...!

    Standing Broad Jump: 9 feet 6 inches... there's where the squats make it decent.. No clue why I can jump out but not up..

    I WAS that fast. I ran a 10.1 100 yard dash as a freshman, and then quit track. I know I was sub 10.0 as a senior. Problem was, I was an idiot. I smoked the illegal and legal weeds, got drunk, and cut classes. We're talkin 1973, not many years after Bob Hayes set the world record in the hundred at 9.6. Youth is wasted on the young. Oh, what might have been.

    What I said is not outlandish at all. I am also 26 and was 23 to 24 at the time so its not like I was doing it in high school. I never bragged about blazing speed, and i basically worked out for a living

    LOL, this is funny reading all the horse shit on this thread. We've got a guy with an Ivy League PhD who can lift 300 pounds and a guy who claims he currently runs a 4.4 40!!!!!!

    Both of you guys are 5'8 235 and drinking at least your 5th mountain dew of the day working on that big grab bag of cheetos.

    I ran a 4.25 40 in 8th grade and could have been an olympic sprinter. I decided however that with my 245 IQ, I could best contribute to society by developing my intellect. I'm not sure how many times I can bench 225. That's what I use for my warmup set so I've never tried to max out. I'm also a world class chef and I invented the cellular phone.
