I'm assuming Bo who hasn't played in a long time so I don't know why he would be mentioned. Didn't he run a really fast 40? That was also hand timed I believe.Quote:

10-10-2012, 10:44 PMslipknottinmost skill position players were sprinters in high school. Trindon Holliday used to race Jeff Demps (who was on the USA gold medal relay team) after practice in florida, and most reports from those said they finished very close. Trindon Holliday's official 40 time at the combine was a 4.34. A full tenth slower than Chirs Johnson ran.Quote:

Everyone in the NFL is fast, being a high school sprint champion doesnt mean you are fast at the nfl level. -

according to the bleacher report Bo Jackson posted the fastest recorded 40 yd time ever- 4.12 although it is thought Bob Hayes was likely faster he was never timed in the 40............suprisingly Mike Vick is in the top 10
I'm sure Usain Bolt could break 4.0 -

I don't know
with pads on I doubt anyone on the Giants is faster than Wilson -

10-10-2012, 10:51 PMslipknottinDepends on the race. Wilson is more of a darter, but may not have great top end speed. Da'Rel Scott on the other hand is a slower smooth acceleration guy who has frighting top end speed.Quote:
