The 0.25(it is actually 0.24) is a number that comes from the track and field side and it is what they use to convert hand times to FAT times. The difference is with FAT the clock starts when the gun goes off, NOT on the runner's first movement, as is done with forty times and the NFL combine. The NFL combine times start on the runner's first movement and the finish is laser times. The difference bewteen hand and official times at the NFL combine tends to be about 0.1 second.

So if DG ran a 4.35 fully hand time at LSU, I would expect him to run around 4.45 to 4.47 at the combine.

And for the record, I believe his straight line speed is not exaggerated. He ran a 10.92 FAT 100m, and a 7.1 60m FAT indoors. While those times won't get him into the Olympics, they translate to a guy who is capable of a 4.4 40, especially since guys his weight are usually decelerating towards the end of the 100m sprint.

Dude... Decimal placement.

10 + 25.0 = 35.0seconds.

10 + 2.5 = 12.5 seconds.

You add 0.25 to the time, not 25 or 2.5. That would make a 4.50 into 29.50 and 7.0
