in sports ā€¢Ā  7 years agoĀ 

News Flash šŸ’„ Saquon Barkley is a Pretty DAMN good Athlete

If you have not had the opportunity to Watch Saquon Barkley this Weekend at the NFL Combine You absolutely need to Watch The videoā€¼ļø ā¬‡ļøā¬‡ļøā¬‡ļø

Hereā€™s Saquon Barkleyā€™s Combine Numberā€™s
Height-6ā€™0
Weight-233lbs
40 yard dash-4.40 seconds
Vertical Jump-41 Inches
Bench press reps with 225lbs-29 reps

To put those absolute ridiculous numbers into context hereā€™s a comparison found by @NFLResearch on twitterED6EB9E9-8294-46C8-8E52-42A18D0A2D02.jpeg

Ok heā€™s athleticšŸ‹šŸ½ā€ā™€ļø..but how does that translate all to the fieldšŸ¤”...you may ask?
Well...see for yourselves (*insert Mic drop gif)

Saquon has drawn comparisonā€™s to LaDainian Tomlinson, Barry Sanders, to a more recent rb in David Johnson

Letā€™s take a look at some of those comparisons:

First well take a look at Elusiveness and Receiving ability

Saquon showing off those hands and Absolutely Ridiculous Juke move he hasšŸ¤§

Now lets compare that to LaDainian Tomlinson ā¬‡ļø

As you can see Both Saquon and LT are excellent at being able to take on a defender 1 on 1 in the open field and able to Make the defender miss without losing speed and staying balanced

Next letā€™s take a look at Barkleys visionšŸ‘€ to find the hole then you will see what separateā€™s him from everyone else and thatā€™s his Barry Sanders type lateral agility. Saquon juke cut is absolutely one of the nastiest Iā€™ve seen and really separates him from all other rbā€™s

In conclusion Saquon Barkley is going to be a Super Star in the Nfl and continue the trend of great rbā€™s to recently enter the NFL and although he may not go #1 in draft due to personal needs with the Browns. Make no Mistake Saquon Barkley is The BEST Player in this Draft easily!

Tomorrow will drop my thoughts on this past weeks NFL combine so stay turned and drop a like and follow if you enjoyed this article.

Great content! Absolutely agree on Barkley. this kid is so special his talent is crazy I try and look for a flaw but I can't find one! shits crazy!

Appreciate it! Barkley is a canā€™t missed prospect in terms of measurables...better then any of the past few stud rbs to come in the nfl which is crazy when you see the production theses guy put up already.

Only thing that could possibly hurt Barkley is he tryā€™s to do too much, the Barry sanders effect gain 10 yards but the next play give it all right back trying to make a play, as long as he cuts that i think heā€™s basically a perfect rb
