The big offensive linemen ran the 40-yard dash on Friday at the NFL Combine.
The 40-yard dash draws more attention than any other workout or drill at the NFL Scouting Combine, regardless of what position happens to be taking part. For offensive linemen, the most important drills are those which measure explosiveness of the lower body and strength in general -- the position-specific drills and bench press always get plenty of attention.
But people still sure do love it when offensive linemen get out there and run the 40-yard dash. While the offensive linemen are typically the slowest of the positions at the combine and it's easy to make fun when watching them run, they'll still obliterate the average joe when it comes to the drill.
Agility and strength are much more important than speed, but that didn't stop most of the top offensive line prospects from running it this year. The slowest player was Brett Boyko of UNCL, who ran a 5.60, while the fasted player was Ali Marpet, who dipped just below five seconds at 4.98 seconds. Top prospects like Brandon Scherff and T.J. Clemmings managed it in 5.05 and 5.14 seconds, respectively. Both of those times are on the high end.
