Poor 40 time. Ran something like a 5.0. Combine that with the character issues and you see teams much more hesitant to spend an early round pick on a guy like Spikes.

According to TFY Draft Preview, his unofficial times were a 5.02 and a 5.08.

It is an interesting parallel though. The last time Shanahan drafted a problem child from Florida in the fourth round who was expected to go higher was Marcus Thomas the DT in 2007. So far he's been average at best.
