At first glance, Justin Blackmon's decision to attend the 2012 NFL Scouting Combine might seem like a foolish one. The former Oklahoma State stud and two-time Biletnikoff Award winner is already considered the top prospect at wide receiver in the 2012 NFL Draft, virtually guaranteeing him a spot as a top-10 pick. Why "do it all," as he told Albert Breer of the NFL Network? Why risk his stock by running in the 40-yard dash and potentially raising more questions about his supposedly "so-so" speed? From Blackmon's perspective, the better question may be, why not? He's a confident kid, a two-time All-American with the strength, route-running skills and (in his mind) straight-line speed and acceleration to be an elite pass catcher at the next level.
