They said he ran 4.4 in the 40 with a pulled hammy and he supposedly beat Chris Johnson in multiple sprints.

It was reported the team used him in the Wild Cat during practice also....

I can see him being on the team. Especially if he keeps up making TD's. I'm betting one of the WR's or RB's gets dropped for a roster spot for him. Hell they did the same thing with Rock. He was not used as a RB until the 1st and 2nd went down. Out of all the yrs with the team (what- 8) Rock only played RB 2 times.

It didn't even seem like he hit full speed on that punt return, he was just coastin'. Gotta think that Shanahan finds a spot for him for special teams.

He may be one of those guys like Darrel Green. They run as fast as they need to. Banks is a blur.

He was clocked at a pro day at 4.26

Ran poorly at the combine.

They did but this was for practice against the wildcat not for him to used in it. BTW he has never thrown a pass in a competitive football game. His words not mine. :)

So he really would not fool anyone.

Seeing what Banks can do, (and assuming he can keep it up) it just makes you wonder why we held on to Cartwright and Randle El for so long.

With those guys, it was always about "locker room leadership." Eff that. Put something on the field. Banks did that. And he represents more of what we need: Young, hungry guys who are desperate to prove themselves.

Exactly. It would be a lot of fun to have a guy like him on the roster. Hopefully we'll be able to make room. It doesn't really matter how small you are if no one can catch you. Just ask Desean Jackson. Problem with Banks is, if all he can do is return punts, it will be tough to keep a spot for him I would think. If we can set up some offensive plays for him, maybe he'll be around.

If Banks starts fumbling, we'll see why. Rock and ARE (mostly) were good about not putting the ball on the ground.
