Already in the conversation as the top cornerback in this class, Michigan State's Trae Waynes may have ended all debate by posting an impressive 4.31 second 40-yard dash time. Having demonstrated the necessary speed and athleticism to succeed at the next level, he's likely solidified his status as a top-15 pick.

Other notable performances

  • Jalen Collins, LSU - 4.48 sec.
  • Marcus Peters, Washington - 4.53 sec.
  • P.J. Williams, Florida State - 4.57 sec.

While Marcus Peters's 40-yard time won't turn heads the way Waynes's did, his draft stock shouldn't take much of a hit. 4.53 is a solid time to pair with his proven physicality and ball skills, likely making Peters a first-round pick in April's draft.
