NFL world marvels at Griffin's great combine performance
Shaquem Griffin dominated the NFL Scouting Combine, emerging as one of the weekend's best stories.
A linebacker from UCF with one hand, Griffin ran the 40-yard dash in a blazing 4.38 seconds - the fastest time recorded for a linebacker in combine history.
He also completed 20 reps on the bench press while wearing a prosthetic on his left arm.

If @Shaquemgriffin doesn't get drafted in the first two days the system is broken. Productive and performed well at the combine. Played well against high level competition.
