Takeaways From Vols at the NFL Combine

RB Alvin Kamara
5-10, 214 pounds

40-yard dash: 4.56 seconds
Vertical leap: 39.5 inches 

Broad jump: 131 inches
Bench press: 15 reps

Kamara also falls into the category of players who confirmed some of what we already knew about them. Kamara proved to be among the most explosive backs at the event – jumping for high marks in both the vertical and the broad jump. His 40 time was serviceable, though not blazing. He was always a little more quick and shifty than he was breakaway fast at Tennessee. The numbers confirmed that in Indy. All-in-all, however, he drew extremely positive reviews from teams for his personality, work ethic and overall performance over the weekend. It’s quite possible that a team fell in love with him enough to take him in the first round, though strong numbers put up across the board by other players at the combine might push him into the second.
