Man, I'd love it if Carlos ended up at the Saints! It would be crazy good if both Carlos and Trent landed there! But the odds are probably higher than a million to one.

If he runs 4.35 or better, maybe late 1st if a team wants to make a reach or keep him from someone else, but would more likely go in the 2nd round. 4.4 or worse, he'll still be there in round 5.
Bottom line is the combine will make or break him. Those 4+ seconds will be the most important of his career.
There are so many metrics involved in the pro draft - they try to expose every flaw and misstep a kid makes...
Work ethic, wonderlic scores, attitude and everything in between - it's more than just physical skills, especially if you were not a NAME GUY coming out of a NAME SCHOOL
Henderson has his work cut out for him to climb up the draft charts
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
I would also love to see him in New Orleans, but the Saints need defense, especially in the early rounds. Not sure I can see them taking either Henderson or Taylor in the draft. Maybe as an UDFA.
I hope Henderson goes high in the draft. It helps Tech recruiting, IMO. "Yep, you can get there from here."

I don't know man, 4.4 is very fast. Anything under under a 4.5 would be good imo.
Have you considered those Dogs?
Stop being realistic! 4.4 is nothing. Jr High kids run fo fos.
You're right, 4.4 is very fast. However, guys from G5s will always be looked down on unless they're other-worldly. He's going to have to have a standout showing at the combine to move way up. Not that the draft is everything, but it definitely helps.
CBS Sports gives Henderson a 5th round grade (#161 overall). Obviously, he could help himself at the combine, but 5th to 1st is a hell of a leap. The Saints need a good KR, so if he falls to the 6th or 7th, who knows...

Henderson is a top 50 pick I believe at 4.4 range. If he runs sub 4.4, which I believe he will, he could jump into late first round and scouts will fall in love with him. Remember this time last year no one was projecting Vernon Butler to go in the first round. Turn on the tape of Carlos and very few WRs can do what he does with the top end speed he has. I hope he is working out with Hester and did not go anywhere else to train. Do we know the answer to that?
There was a great article yesterday from the Pewter Plank, the Fansided site for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The author loves Carlos and backs it up with some interesting stats and things other scouts/writers have said.
Carlos will not be around in round five. Did you guys forget what you watched the last three years? He's one of the most electric players in our history. Scouts are not looking down him for going to a G5. The dude is a ready WR
If the Saints' don't get him, I do not want him in the NFC South. Just say "No!" Tampa Bay. Take someone else.
We already gotta deal with Vernon Butler in Carolina. No more Dawgs to Saints rivals please!
