Darius Butler Looks Like a First-Rounder

by Chris Burke

Earlier today, MDS noted that Ohio State cornerback Malcolm Jenkins' draft stock may be dipping after he ran a disappointing 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine on Tuesday. Connecticut's Darius Butler does not have the same issue, and could wind up reaping the benefits of a Jenkins slide.

While Jenkins clocked in with a 4.52 40, Butler managed to record an unofficial 4.45 -- slower than he hoped, but still the second-fastest time posted by a cornerback, behind only the 4.41 time of Norfolk State's Don Carey.
