I always thought that Pat Angerer is a much better ILB prospect than Spikes. Angerer is a superior tackler and Spikes doesn't even have an athletic upside compared to him.
Via a website that reports Pro Day results:
Goodbye 2nd round statusBrandon Spikes has run an unofficial 5.02 and a 5.08 in the forty.

LOL, I run faster than him!
Suck it Tom
Yeah that's truly pathetic. When he couldn't run down Tony Pike in the bowl game that's really when the speed really became an issue. I was expecting 4.8, but 5.0 is just ridiculously slow for a LB
I guess the SEC isn't at fast as everyone thinks...
also, this is at ****in' Florida where the 40 times are notoriously fast
his combine 40 would have likely been 5.1-5.2
Yep, you nailed it. The SEC is slow because Brandon Spikes is slow.
I think you are just misreading the stats. It was actually a .52 and .58 because after all this is the SEC.
