What did he run? Owen Schmiddt is the man.

Haven't seen numbers yet. Most of what I've read expects him in the sub 4.7s. He also comes in with 8% body fat, which for a 240 lbs running back is fairly impressive.

Will there be combine reports/updates reported anywhere? ESPNNews?

You can check NFL.com. This link was posted on our board showing highlights from Saturday. Felton was the #3 highlight putting up 225 lbs 30 times.

Just a quick update from today.

San Diego QB Josh Johnson ran a 4.4 flat in the 40

App State WR Dexter Jackson ran a sizzling 4.27 40....sick

I'm not sure if the RB's/FB's have done the 40 yet. You can watch a live stream of the 40's (and other events I think) on nfl.com

[FUwolfpacker]

Felton did a 32.5 in. vertical jump.
Other Fullbacks:
Payton Hillis - 30.5 in
Jacob Hester - 27.5 in
Owen Schmitt - DNP

Montana RB Lex Hillard did 32 in.

RB's 40 yard dash is still to come

Wow! J Train is looking impressive!

Wow. That is fast.

Wow. That is fast.


Shouldn't come as much of a surprise to those of us who've watched him play these past few years.

App certainly is going to miss that type of game breaker.

I am so glad he is gone from furman. I can root for him now to tear up the nfl. He is a load and should do well especially if he gets in an offense that uses the fb.

Impressive, but the thread title should have been "Felton TIED FOR Strongest Back At Combine"

I wonder why they don't separate the Fullbacks and Tailbacks. I wonder how Felton compared to just the other fullbacks, as that's what he will be looked at upon as far as where he is drafted.

Johnson's official 40 time was 4.55, fastest for QBs

Jackson's official 40 time was 4.37, 3 way tie for second fastest among WRs.
