That is the video of Darius Slay running the 40 yard dash.

What I found interesting was, the NFL Network guys weren't talking about Slay, they were talking about the Seattle Seahawks instead. Specifically the Seahawks' terrific ability at finding players later in the draft.

Perhaps it's a sign?

Also, these commentators, who I assume are not Seahawks fans... when Robert Turbin was brought up one of the commentators immediately responded "oh-ah (sounds like he's almost orgasming) THE TURBINATOR!"

I know I didn't start that nickname, but I'd like to think I did my part.

I was hoping we'd draft Slay as our Nickel corner to replace Trufant. Do you think he has the instincts to defend the slot? I think he was mostly corner in college.

I haven't watched him at all, but from what I understand he's not very physical, either against TE run, as a tackler, or in press coverage.

Glad to see Kearly might be on the Slay Wagon, makes me feel not stupid.

I would agree with that. Looks like Jeremy Lane on tape.
