Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 871189">Another thing to consider is what happens with a player between the time he's a college junior or senior and where he is after a couple years in the league.  Sometimes with better training and nutrition he can pick up some speed.  Or you could look at a guy like Kittle who appears to have gone the other way.Kittle ran a 4.52 at the Combine at 247 lbs and measured 6' 4".  Sternberger ran a 4.75 at 251 lbs. and measured 6' 4".  Now look at last season's tape and how big Kittle looks compared to Sternberger.  He's maybe carrying 260 - 265 lbs.  And he doesn't look like a 4.52 runner, more like 4.7ish like the guys we're discussing here.  Adding weight can reduce the speed a guy had at 21-22 years old.  You wouldn't say that's a problem with Kittle and what he gets done on the field today.</blockquote>
