20-Yard Shuttle: Kevin King (3.89 seconds)

King may have squeaked by a couple of other prospects and had the best 3-cone drill performance by 1/100th of a second, but he was able to dominate the 20-yard shuttle by a much wider margin.

The Washington defensive back’s 20-yard shuttle time of 3.89 seconds was .05 seconds better than the next best finish during the weekend. It makes sense that King did so well in the shuttle since he finished at the top of the 3-cone drill, as they both measure a prospect’s agility.

What all does this mean for King’s draft stock? It’s definitely a positive sign, and should help him move into the discussion as a potential second or third-round pick based off of size and athleticism alone. Washington quietly had one of the most impressive secondaries this season, and King was the most overlooked prospect in that group.

He’s probably not going to be a first-round pick, but King still made himself a lot of money in Indianapolis this weekend.

Honorable Mention: Howard Wilson (3.94 seconds)
