Eastern Kentucky DE/OLB Noah Spence was underwhelming in a variety of ways at the NFL Combine. Spence posted a 4.80 40-yard dash time, which was not overly impressive when compared to fellow edge rushers. NFL.com's Mike Mayock said he expected Spence to run a 40-yard dash time between 4.65 and 4.7 seconds. League personnel weren't impressed with Spence either. One exec told NFL.com's Kimberly Jones that Spence was not worthy of being a first-round pick while an unnamed general manager told NFL.com that he didn't know if he could trust Spence off of the field.

Fantasy Impact
One bad performance at the combine certainly won't destroy Spence's stock, but this was not a good weekend for him. Spence was reportedly equally as unimpressive in team interviews as he was on the field. He has been projected by some to be a top 10 talent and continues to be one of the biggest wild cards in the 2016 draft class.
