Big day for Smith, Meachem

Two players who really boosted their draft stock today were USC wideout Steve Smith and Tennessee WR Robert Meachem. Unofficially, NFL Network had Smith running a 4.37 and Meachem running a 4.36. (Update: later, NFL amended the numbers to 4.39 for Meachem and 4.44 for Smith).

Smith is the Keary Colbert to Dwayne Jarrett's Mike Williams. He's a tough football player with smarts, understands coverage, and this showed he may have more natural ability than Colbert. He's the kind of player I think transitions more easily to the NFL. This should help his chances of being taken in the second round.

Meachem has good size and his forty shows he has the speed to keep up his great yards-after-catch ability at the next level. He's in the crowded mix of receivers behind Calvin Johnson.
