Le'Veon Bell News: Bell ran the 40-yard dash in 4.60 seconds at the NFL Combine.
Bell ran the 40-yard dash in 4.60 seconds at the NFL Combine.
A 4.60 is normally considered a disappointment for a running back, but it's actually a relatively strong showing for Bell, who checks in at 230 pounds. Bell's speed was the only question in his game, and he erased any fear of being too slow with what he ran at the Combine. While his speed is still probably below average for a starting NFL running back, he more than makes up for it with his short-area movement, strength and standout ability to see the field and utilize blockers effectively. Bell's superb spatial intelligence allows him to make extremely efficient use of the field, and he quickly glides through any opening that presents itself. We figure he'll go in the third or fourth round.
