I've been thinking about this topic for at least the last two or so weeks give or take a few days, and YESTERDAY's performance has prompted me to make this thread about it.

The plays in particular that stood out to me were those two splash plays by Bilal Nichols, who is one of our newest fat boys on the DL. He was incredibly fast. Like freaky fast. Got the TFL literallly nanoseconds after the RB got the handoff. Incredible.

Akheim Hicks was pretty freakishly fast as well, not only coming up the middle but he was running around the outside with the speed of a much leaner man.

Bullard showed flashes of fastness too and also Goldman, who nobody really even talks about, was incredibly swift footed in his attack.

Combined, these four players are easily well over 1200 lbs. They average 4.7 in the 20 yard dash and 7.36 in the three cone shuttle. That's a lot of fat moving incredibly fast. I'm impressed.

Any other team have this sort of fleet footedness from them their fat boys?

I think not.

Not really sure that Hakiem Nicks should be on the list being that he will likely miss a few weeks for assaulting an elderly official.

Hicks is every bit as quick as he is well-spoken. His three cone was 7.55 seconds, and he does that at over 330 lbs. You have got to be kidding me that he shouldn't be on the list.

Well, some people talk about Goldman.

True but other than you, I don't see anyone else really talking about this fast moving mountain of a man. I can't believe that is the case, but that is the case.

That's fine and all but you won't find me voting for a thug that assaults officials.

Doesn't the poll question dictate a yes or no answer?

What a sloppy, non interesting thread.

Hakeem Nicks retired from the Giants years ago.

The OP is very bad at polls. Like really bad

I can't help you if you don't possess a level of intellect to figure out how the polls work.

Thanks.

Usually Khalil Mack or Pete Football win all the polls. It is good to see you have opened it up to some others who deserve a chance.

Who cares how fast they are, I think the better metric to measure by is who has the biggest d0nk
