Along with another CFL Super Smurf, here are their respective times in the 40, along with their height and weight from the NFL combines.

Brandon Banks 5'7'' 149 lbs, now apparently 153 4.43 in the 40

Chris Rainey 5'8'' 180 lbs, 4.36 in the 40

Chris Williams 5'7'' 175 lbs, 4.39 in the 40

Rainey has the fastest time in the 40, and is the "biggest." :wink:

These guys all do kick returns and receiving, with Rainey slipping out of the backfield.

We have seen Rainey run the ball very, very well, here with the Lions, reminiscent for some fans of Willie Fleming years ago.

As noted on the depth chart from another thread it looks like there is room for Williams as a receiver, in the spot held by Sinkfield at year's end.
sinkfield has them all beat.

Yes, he does. I think I posted this from youtube previously.



Bigger too. Apparently Wally made an offer earlier. Dunno if the Lions would still want him, with Williams in the Den.
