I didn t have as good as senior year as I wanted. I just felt I had to make up for it at the NFL combine. I worked extremely hard to prepare. I am a strong believer in lifting weights for strength and especially speed. Speed is 90% power. You get a lot of power from weights if you do it correctly. I think that s what really separates me from a lot of guys. Besides the core lifts, Kevin does a variety of lunges, leg presses, calf raises, leg extensions, leg curls and the Glute Ham Raise. This issue will feature Kevin s core lifts. In our next issue, we will illustrate his auxiliary lifts. <br><br>Anyway, Kevin headed to the NFL scouting combine with everything on the line. Since most of the pro scouts and coaches had never seen him play like many of the other potential draftees, Kevin was eager to show teams what he could do.<br><br>Hundreds of players participate in the combine. All of the teams are present, each with nearly twenty representatives. There are owners, doctors, coaches, scouts, trainers and administrative personnel. Kevin just shook his head,  They are thorough, very thorough. It is probably the most complete physical one could go through.<br><br> They had 15 stations and each station had five substations. At each of those substations, they check everything from your knees to elbows to your neck to your hamstrings. You are more sore from the Combine than the actual training camp. <br><br>Sure, Kevin was disappointed at not making a postseason game. He had always been an extremely confident athlete. Well, you have two choices when you get knocked down a peg or two: lie down or raise up. Kevin didn t just complain and talk. He went to work.  Raise Up became his motto - his mission.<br><br>Kevin just blew them away at the Combine. Absolutely blew them away. He soared to 36.5 on his vertical jump and leaped 10-6 on the standing long jump. Kevin gauged that anything over ten feet is considered a great jump. However, the Bench Press is where Kevin popped a few eyeballs.<br><br>The NFL Combine tests the Bench Press by having the players do 225 pounds for a max out on reps. Even though Kevin only weighs 185 pounds, he has recorded a 405 one-rep max on the bench. He was primed and ready. Kevin did more reps than most linemen when he did an amazing 26 reps with 225 pounds.<br><br> Luckily, I was blessed with speed and strength. Also, someone was still willing to give me a chance, recalled Kevin.  When a cat s trapped in a corner, it s going to scratch and claw to force its way out or die trying. That was Kevin s feeling when he stepped up to the starting line of the race of his life. There were about 100 watches on him. If ever there was a time to raise up, this was it.<br><br>Several watches clocked Kevin at 4.1 in his forty yard time. The average was between 4.23 and 4.24. It was the fastest time of anyone. I hope you get Kevin s new video called  Football Speed. It shows amazing footage of Kevin in seemingly impossible saves during a football game. Until someone proves different, Kevin Devine is the NFL s fastest player. We at BFS are believers.<br><br>After Kevin s sensational combine performance, his hopes were high.  I knew I wouldn t be a first round pick, but I thought maybe a late second, or an early third, remembered Kevin.  As I watched
