Hakeem Nicks: NFL Draft Watch

Posted Mar 17, 2009
Hakeem Nicks may lack elite stopwatch speed, but NFL scouts would do well to remember that so too did Anquan Boldin and Chad Johnson. He also had an arm span of 33 1/2 inches and a hand span of 10 1/2 inches at the combine. I have him going 17th to the Jets, because Mark Sanchez will most likely be gone. (Bleacher Report)
