Drafted RBs by Bengals since 2010 - 40 times
#1
A lot of talk has been had about certain prospects not being fast enough.
So I decided to go look up the 40 times for all the RBs the Bengals have drafted since 2010.

Jay Finley - 4.51
Boom Herron - 4.66
Rex Burkhead - 4.73
Gio Bernard - 4.53
Jeremy Hill - 4.66
Joe Mixon - 4.45 (he don't seem that fast)
Mark Walton - 4.60
Trayveon Williams - 4.51
Rodney Anderson - N/A
Chris Evans - 4.52

Outside of Mixon, the Bengals have targeted someone in the 4.5's or 4.6's in this window.

One conclusion might be that most of these guys might have stuck around longer had they been faster.
Another conclusion could be that a guy who runs in the 4.5's (especially between 4.50 and 4.55) is plenty fast enough.

I'm of the latter opinion, but I can understand if people want a RB who want the RB to be faster than that.
4.50-4.55 is fast enough for my liking, as long as the RB can be durable, pound the rock, catch, and block some.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Patience has paid off!
