Entering this week, the only question about Alabama cornerback Dee Milliner was his speed.
He provided an emphatic answer Tuesday morning, running an unofficial 4.31 40 at the Combine.
Milliner (6-0, 201) is scheduled to have surgery on March 12 to repair a torn labrum (shoulder). He suffered the injury during a Nov. 10 game against Texas A&M, but still played in Alabama’s final four games.
“I could’ve had it right after the game, but I felt the need – I had to come out and do something,” said Milliner, who estimated a two-month rehab stint. “I didn’t just want to sit out the Combine and pro day, and then y’all guys get to wondering, saying this and that. So I just wanted to come out and showcase that I can move around, I can run, and I swing my arm around.”

Howie Roseman believes the Eagles have some pieces in place to transition to a new defensive scheme – one that will not include Cullen Jenkins or Mike Patterson.
As for the details, there’s not a whole lot we know right now. We know Chip Kelly prefers a 3-4. We know defensive coordinator Billy Davis has a background in multiple schemes, including the 4-3 under. Having spoken to Davis and some of the other assistants, I got the impression that pre-snap disguise is going to be a big part of whatever the Eagles do.
As we look ahead to free agency (March 12) and the draft (April 25), now seems like a good time to take stock of the Eagles’ defensive linemen to see how they might fit going forward.
If there was any doubt that the Eagles would be addressing defensive tackle this offseason, it was erased when both Mike Patterson and Cullen Jenkins were released Monday.
With Derek Landri poised to become a free agent, the Eagles currently have four interior linemen under contract: Fletcher Cox, Antonio Dixon, Cedric Thornton and Ronnie Cameron. No matter the eventual scheme, they will need to add players to the mix.
Howie Roseman, Chip Kelly and company could look for reinforcements in April’s draft (Florida’s Sharrif Floyd and Utah’s Star Lotulelei could both go early), but also have the opportunity to bolster the position via free agency, which kicks off on March 12.

From the team’s cornerback options to Geno Smith’s stock, here are three Eagles-related takeaways from the NFL Combine in Indianapolis.
After running for just 167 yards during his senior season, Geno Smith faced some questions about his athleticism entering this week’s Combine.
But he answered those today, clocking in with a 40 time of 4.56 seconds, the fastest among all the quarterbacks here.
During his media session earlier this week, West Virginia’s Tavon Austin said he was hoping to run under a 4.4 in the 40-yard dash.
Needless to say, he’s probably pretty happy right about now.
Austin (5-8, 174) blazed an unofficial 4.25 Sunday morning at the NFL Combine, eliminating any doubt about whether he’d be a first-round pick.
When Dion Jordan arrived at Oregon, he envisioned himself being a major contributor in Chip Kelly’s offense.
But things don’t always work out according to plan.
The Ducks ended up moving Jordan (6-6 1/2, 248) to defense. And after two seasons as a hybrid outside linebacker/defensive end, he now finds himself on the cusp of being a first-round pick.
The Chiefs and Eagles discussed a potential Nick Foles trade earlier this week at the NFL Combine, according to Mike Garafolo of USA Today.
Per the report, the Eagles told Kansas City what they’ve said publicly: That Foles is going to compete with Michael Vick for the starting job, and that he is not currently on the market.
The report is notable though because it reiterates the idea that Andy Reid is definitely interested in acquiring his former quarterback.
