Pitt's Kancey runs fastest 40 by DT since 2006

Calijah Kancey had a 4.67 official time in the 40-yard dash, the fastest time by a defensive tackle at the combine since 2006, when ESPN Stats & Information began tracking the event.

with a blazing 1.64 10 yd split. and he measured in at 6-1. there were gripes about him possibly being sub 6 feet, those gripes have now been alleviated. yeah, arm length a still bit worrisome.

i think he's solidly in the conversation for pick #5 now.

Except being one of only 5 DT to ever have just over 30 inch arms. I’m guessing we have a shot at him at 20 still. If Pete can get over that fact, which he usually can’t.

Almost identical measurables to Aaron Donald, interesting. Depending on who else is there at 5, I wouldn't complain about that pick at all.

Adetomiwa Adebawore ran even faster at 285.

pretty much yeah. as i mentioned, kancey's arm length is worrisome. donald has arms that are 2 inches longer.

Adetomiwa Adebawore ran even faster at 285.

i was ready to create another thread just for him. 4.49. got damn. big 10.5 inch hands, long arms. lack of production / notoriety is what keeps him down a bit. he dominated at the senior bowl though and is shooting up the draft charts. he may go somewhere in the 1st.

Nolan Smith just smoking the 40. If only he had better on field production, he would be a top 5 pick.

Nolan Smith just smoking the 40. If only he had better on field production, he would be a top 5 pick.

Good 40 time very athletic but as a 235 lb DE he is a tweener where would you play him? My preference is Will McDonald IV. I see both players as edges that are a liability against the run but could be good situational pass rushers

one thing to remember when was the last time you saw a lineman run 40 yards during a play

His 10 yard split would be the best ever (as far as OFFICIAL times go) for an edge, and top-5 all time for an LB.

He's also weighed in basically identically to McDonald, who granted may have been sick, but is extremely lean to begin with.

He would play the same spot as McDonald here.

 

[CactusJack]

Kancey is a 4-3 DL.

Nolan & McDonald are the 3-4 OLB prototype.

Smith should be a top 15 pick. Especially after that performance.

 

[Hawkinaz]

I would like to see both McDonald and Smith in LB drills to see how they look in space. So far I see both players as tweezers. Bill Belichick is interested

Except shorter arms, by something like 2 inches, and small hands too only 9 1/8". Donald was 32 5/8" arm and 9 7/8" hand.

Not sure how to use Kancey in a 3-4.
