40 time may be a result of a hip flexor injury

TAYLOR RAPP
DB, WASHINGTON HUSKIES

THe Athletic's Dane Brugler reports that several teams have "flagged" Washington S Taylor Rapp with his hip-flexor issue.
Rapp missed the Rose Bowl against Ohio State with the hip issue, and as Brugler reports, it likely contributed to his poor testing (4.78 second 40-yard dash) this winter. The bad news is that hip issues have a nasty habit of lingering, and if a team believes Rapp can't stay healthy, it obviously will hurt his draft stock. Expect Rapp to hear his name called Friday, but it might be later than we anticipated.

TAYLOR RAPP
DB, WASHINGTON HUSKIES

Rams selected Washington S Taylor Rapp with the No. 61 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.
Rapp (6’0/208) turned pro as a true junior after making 35 starts in three seasons as a Huskie, twice earning first-team All-Pac 12 with seven career picks, seven sacks, and two forced fumbles. PFF College charted Rapp with just 12 missed tackles during his entire career; he made 171 (93.4%). Rapp predictably shined in agility drills at the Combine with a 6.82 three-cone and 3.99 short-shuttle time but waited for his Pro Day to run the forty and bombed it (4.74). Still a three-level playmaker, Rapp maintains starter potential as a zone-scheme safety. The Rams lost Lemarcus Joyner in free agency but now added Rapp to go along with veteran signing Eric Weddle.
