As a rookie, he seems like a perfect third down pass rusher type guy...in which case I would take him on the Redskins in a second. The skins did just receive a second third round pick and need pass rushers. Could be a good fit!

While I don't believe Bryan will have the success that Urlacher has had, I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility for him to be nearly as good.
Kehl vs. Urlacher Combine results: Weight: 242 vs. 258 40: 4.64 vs. 4.59 Bench (225 reps): 26 vs 27 I can't find any other info on Urlacher's combine results (and don't particularly want to look all that hard), but you get the idea from these three stats.

He also did it at 258 pounds, 16 more than Kehl, Urlacher is also a MLB and Kehl will be an OLB. I think Kehl will have a nice career but he is not even close to Urlachers level if he was he would be a first round pick.

Again, Bryan was extremely close to Urlacher in all the measurables I could find. I don't find it likely that he'll have Urlacher's success in the NFL. I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility that he will be nearly as good.

Let's compare someone that runs a 4.8 versus a 4.3. The person that runs a 4.3 40 is running at an average rate of 27.9 feet per second; the person that runs a 4.8 40 is running at an average rate of 25 feet per second. At the end of 4.3 seconds, the slower person is 4.3 * (27.9 - 25) = 12.5 feet behind. |

Cougjunkie threw me off by quoting the .5-second difference, which I failed to correct. I did my math based on 4.59 seconds at 40 meters/4.64 seconds (8.62 meters/second) = 0.43 meters difference. Which I rounded to 1.5 feet. Forgive me for not including all my work.

If Urlacher DID run a 40 .5 seconds faster than Kehl's, that would be a truly amazing sub-4.2 time.

Who do you think Bronco would say is the better player?
