seriously, these guys spend years developing their bodies and form to be perfect runners. The guys spend a few months before the combine.


Explain why Justin Gatlin ran a 4.45 and a 4.42 at the Titans NFL pro day.

Usain bolt would NOT run a sub 4 40 yd dash. I'm not necessarily sure he would beat Chris Johnson's time. This isn't speculation; there are articles on this.

People always assume sprinters can easily outrun even the fastest football players. I'm guessing if you raced Chris Johnson and Usain Bolt beside each other for 40 yards or so the difference would be surprisingly minimal. A guy like Johnson or some of the other fast NFL'ers could very well have been track stars had football careers not worked out. 4.3 is ridiculously fast. Nobody can run much faster than that.
