Only good things about Allen coming out after the combine. He is still going to have the "a bit too slow and bulky and can't separate" tag on him. But he only helped his draft stock this past weekend.

All it takes is for 1 team to fall in love with himAgree. Now that he has a good 40 time, they can go back to his film for their final evaluation. And that's when they'll say- "Crap, #5 is the best player on the field."
Am I the only one that silently chuckles when reading “hand size”?From the eye test he was similar to Kelvin Benjamin or Devin Funchess but he actually tested closer to Courtland Sutton and Kenny Golladay. Wish we had agility numbers but it was a big day for Lazard. He jumped(ran) into day 2 or a top 100 selection.
Allen Lazard 6'5" 227lbs 9 3/4" hands.
4.55 forty | 17 Reps | 38" vert | 122" broad jump
Kelvin Benjamin 6'5" 240lbs 10 1/4" hands (Round 1 pick 28)
4.61 forty | 13 reps | 32.5" vert | 119" broad | 7.33s 3 cone
Devin Funchess 6'4" 232lbs 9 3/4" hands (Round 2 pick 9)
4.70 forty | 17 reps | 38.5" vert | 122" broad
Courtland Sutton 6'3" 218lbs 9 3/4" hands (1st round projection)
4.54 forty | 18 reps | 35.5" vert | 124" broad | 6.57s 3 cone (elite)
Kenny Golladay 6'4" 218lbs 9 3/4" hands (Round 3 pick 32)
4.50 forty | 18 reps | 35.5" vert | 120" broad | 7.00s 3 cone
I see a team getting a discount Courtland Sutton with more production against better competition. Sutton was held catchless against TCU in 2017. He hit them 5-113 the year before so there has been production there. The combine doesn't assure anything about his future NFL career but, it's a hell of a lot better to test well than test poorly.
He's listed as a combine "winner" hete amongst the wide receivers.

Man that TE Gesicki has some damn impressive numbers. 247 lbs and bigger hands then Lazard. 4.54-40 yd, 22 reps, and a 41.5" vertical (are you kidding me?).
Also looking briefly at the CB's and a lot of 4.3 numbers and then Josh Jackson 4.56?.

"220....221. Whatever it takes.
Name that movie.
It'd be interesting to see if a team like the Packers draft Lazard and what he could do with a consistently all-world QB. It'd make sense with Jordy Nelson nearing the end of the back 9 of his career, Randall Cobb in the slot and Davante Adams on the other side locked in for the next 3-4 years.
In the red zone definitely, but between the 20's, its anybody's guess with the riverboat gambler, Mike McCarthy.Do you see AL lining up on the outside?
