Only hit 225 for 10 reps at the combine...that's crazy weak for a RB. Pretty surprising...that's gonna hurt him I think

That's not the end all be all for a skill guy. His 40 and cone drill will be exponentially more important. That said, I love seeing the NFL combine numbers on guys with benches like that. Something macho about knowing you're stronger than a few guys in the NFL.
It's not the end all be all, but it's definitely a factor. 40 time is def more important. The Oklahoma RB hit it like 30x...dudes a hoss.
Yeah but he'll ace the test, he's got a high motor, deceptive speed, high football IQ, and he never take a play off.
Not a one of you fat boys are benching 225, much less for 10 reps. Only reps you get is that one every morning getting up.
185? Hell no. That weight would get reaped out in the 100s for most of those guys.
There's absolutely
no way that's true. He may have worked out w that weight, but I can say with almost 100% certainty he could max more than that.

I remember Lyndale White for USC a while back. Dude looked like a beast and struggled. What are guys like this doing in college? You would think that they would recognize that they have NFL potential and being able to lift may get them more money.
Better than that time the Brassell kid got one rep. Maybe it was a pro dat and not the combine, though. Either way. One rep. Sad!
Right, I was
speaking of him stating that Tillman maxed on 225 in college.
That's just not right.

To me
that sounds like he's saying, essentially, that's what he reps.
Again, there's no doubt it my mind if someone put 315 on the bar, he'd hit it.

Seriously,
do you honestly believe his max was 225? I would venture to say that of every guy in my gym that goes there daily, 99% of them can max more than that. Hell, over 1/2 of them probably work out w 225. Maxing two plates is most assuredly below average for a gym rat.

Well, he's definitely saying that's his max, not what he reps. I would agree that it sounds like he's probably exagerating for humor and that it's less than he maxes, but probably at the high end or possibly even above where he would normally do reps.
Well,he'sdefi
Yeah I get
that it's what he's saying, but he's gotta be joking.
Again, the vast majority of gym rats that are his size rep that weight, and they probably max 285-315.
