squirrel white ran over a 4.6 at his pro day. there is some rumor out there that he ran a 4.28 in 2024, but with the pro scouts watching, and looking him over for the draft, it was a 4.6+

I don't see him making much more than a practice squad player to be honest. He has decent 10 yd split and lateral quickness, but he doesnt have a route tree and being smaller is a injury liability. If we need a returner to get by, maybe he gets elevated.

right, and we have Kalif Raymond and Zavion Thomas for those roles. Squirrel might go to the practice squad, I agree, but that's all he is at least until he develops over multiple years.

But in no world does he run anything like a 4.28, or even a 4.5

Im not sure where that came from. Ive seen he was clocked at 23 mph or something but no official 40 times until combine. Im all for checking him out, be great if he can be a Tank Dell, but not holding my breathe. I think we are going to need another big WR to challenge Odunze next year.

Jahdae Walker is 6’3”. Or are you saying he won’t develop at all?

He's just trying to win "the most posts award".

Me? I dont post a lot, draft time sure.

My post was about finding an Odunze replacement next year. Walker might be it, but until he shows more, hes not a #1 X WR. Fill-in, yes.

There is some questions but barring injury we are going to have a talented WR room. Lots of fans and pundits were cheering DJ Moore leaving so Burden and Rome can get a larger role are the same ones saying we need more at WR. Kalif Raymond will have a bigger role than expected. He wanted to sign with BJ over being the third WR in Detroit. BJ will find plays for Zavion Thomas. I can see him getting some snaps at RB considering his speed and the other speed we have on the team.

Squirrel White was a second place Alabama 100 meter sprinter when coming out of High School. As a prospect he was listed at 4.37 speed. In 2024 while at the U of Tenn, he was clocked at 23.4 MPH of which they used their GPS system on all their players. If you watch tape he looks more like a 4.3 player than a 4.63 that he did at his pro day. He had a 40.6 inch vertical. It is reported that before his pro day he had a PCL strain he was nursing that he got working out for his pro day. I couldnt find collaboration about the 4.28 report but he is definitely a 4.3 speedster.
