The fact that he's rounded out his game and is not just a fast gadget player gives me a lot of hope. You could make Reek a 4.5 guy and he probably wouldn't be elite anymore but he'd still be better than average. If he's able to retain his legendary speed as well as guys like Darrell Green and Deion Sanders the sky really is the limit.

Using baseball analogies again - guys like Ricky Henderson and Kenny Lofton aged really well. Vince Coleman was a trash baseball player who couldn't get on base to save his life and he stole 50 bases in the partial '94 season at 32 yrs old.
Having speed to spare helps because when you lose some, you still have plenty. And that's how it went for some of those hyper-athletic guys.
