4.42 is blazing fast. And also if you watch the film, he looks faster than 4.42 on the field. He’s just explosive, he just has that extra gear. If he gets past you, nobody is catching him. He’s quick too, not just straight line speed. I just imagine BOB coming up with some amazing schemes for Flowers.
Also, having Thornton and Flowers on the field at the same time, that would finally give some Defensive Coordinators something they would have to worry about.
Bottom line, what they’ve done in free agency, is just not enough. All they’ve really done is replace the players that left. Now personally, I feel Smith-Schuster and Gesicki are improvements, but more is needed, more explosiveness. Been saying this for years, need more explosiveness.
