There are many young football players that test poorly at the combine and go on to have solid NFL careers. A less than optimal 40 YD isn’t the end of world especially concerning Kyle Phillips. He’s quick and not fast. Kyle’s smart and knows how to get open, something many more athletic WR’s never figure out. I am happy, I’m not the only one that saw great promise in Kyle Phillips and got him early off the waiver wire. I wouldn’t be surprised, health willing, that Phillips is a top 5 or 7 rookie WR by season’s end.
Nice article, Dan. Keep em’ comin’.
I took him in the second round because I only had 1 pick after the second half of the third round. Glad I did. In another, I got him with the 3.09 in a 12team rookie cause I had more picks but was still not messing around. And I’m so glad I did. Let someone else grab him in a non-ppr league and was claimed on waivers after week one. Also only 20 man roster, so not deep and I’m contending, top 3. Probably the fave.
