3. Sergio Brown is the next David Bruton... as a gunner. We confess. We did not commit to memory the identities of the various special-teams gunners tried out by the Irish during spring practice. It will never happen again. At least until next spring.
Not sure how well Mike Anello will recover from a busted leg suffered late last year, and it just makes sense to have Brown, one of the most athletically gifted members of the defense, screeching down the field toward preoccupied punt returners. Arcane as this is, don't underestimate the value Bruton and Anello have provided, field-position-wise, in those gunner roles.

A 4.65 40 is slow?
Joique Bell, RB, Wayne State - Player Profile - NFL Draft Day Insider
You might be surprised to learn this buy Emmitt Smith and Jerry Rice ran between a 4.7-4.8 40.
Scott Long signed with the 49ERS
Right. They ran slow 40 times. They also happened to be Emmitt Smith and Jerry Rice: The exceptions, not the rule.
By NFL standards, yes, a 4.65 40 is slow. Had Joique Bell run a 4.5 40, he would have been drafted. (When asked about his 40, he brings up Rice in an interview from a few weeks ago: Q&A With Wayne State RB Joique Bell | Patriots Daily )
I also happen to think in his case that a slow 40 time won't prevent him from succeeding in the NFL. As I said, I wanted the Pats to pick him up.
Me, too. Slow 40 but solid fundamentals.
If any team picks up Lonyae Miller, please post it.

wow are the Pats that bad of a team to want to play on?
There was talk that Sicko might be a late-round pick in the draft.
"I've been contacted by a lot of teams for free agency," Sicko said. "I sat down with my family and talked about it and have decided not to pursue a football career, but to pursue my education instead."
Sicko is a history major with political science as a minor and graduates next month and said he intends to apply to graduate school soon.
"It would have been a dream come true to be drafted and play in the NFL," Sicko said. "But to go into the free agent process . . . I want to be realistic. It's incredibly difficult to pursue a career in the NFL through free agency. I see this as a fork in the road and I would love to keep pursuing my education and further that and develop a career."
