Bob Hayes was a backup
and Jimmy Graham not playing a sport for years then deciding "Well, guess I can't make the NBA, might as well become an All-Pro in football" is hilarious. I played baseball, doesn't mean I have a baseball background.
nikka if you're an incredibly exceptional athlete, dont be surprised when nikkas like Jimmy Graham and Bob Hayes who were SICK in their main sports, turn around and become sick at another sport. that shyt isnt to hard to understand.
You're clearly not a math head that much is evident, there is no approximation of Bolt's speed in the NFL, nobody is close, it would be like me trying to argue that someone in the NBA has the jumping ability of a world class high jumper, nobody does and there are no parallels to draw from that come close. You're bringing up all these names, nobody in the NFL has seen Bolt speed or anything close to it, why is that so hard to understand?
Again, his average speed over the length of 2+ football fields was 23mph, that's factoring in that the race starts from a dead stop and he has to accelerate up to and past 23mph.
yes nikka i know usain bolt is fast, but how does that determine whether he'll be a standout NFL wide receiver
? Usain is not racing people, he's trying to catch a football while not getting his head knocked off. Can he catch a football while getting cracked, can he catch period, can he run good routes, can he block, can he memorize the playbook, is he tough etc
Bob Hayes already knew the ends and outs of football, combine that with his speeds and yeah he went on to have an HOF career. Jimmy Graham also played football in college, youth and high school, while also playing forward in basketball, which has many of the same intangibles a good tight end has to have. it wasnt much of a stretch for either of them at all
