Owner Al Davis loves speed and that’s what motivated him to select WR Darrius Heyward-Bey in the first round.  Heyward-Bey is 6’2″, 205 pounds and he runs a stunning 4.3 40.  Heyward-Bey can be electrifying at times with his speed but he will need to work on his hands and route running.  He played 3 seasons for Maryland playing in 38 games (35 starts) in which he caught 138 passes for 2,089 yards (15.1 avg) with 13 TD grabs.  Heyward-Bey will get a chance from Day #1 to prove the critics wrong and he definately has the tools to get deep for JaMarcus Russell.
