Well White did run using the same measuring methods as everyone else and ran faster that LSU's top CB prospects in Smith, Fulton, and Mullen

Exactly. Regarding that, how can they explain that? I'm pretty sure all of those guys will run faster if/when they get to the combine than they do now, and that's with extra bulk.

For reference, Peterson ran a 4.34 at the combine at 6'0 220. Looking at that, is it that farfetched to say a guy at say 255, runs a 4.5 flat?

Forget about age for a minute. Freak's abilities were freakish in high school, yet he never developed beyond that point (maybe some of that had to do with him being lazy in the weight room).

White tested a 4.57 a few months back at 260. What it boils down to for me, is that a guy around 6'0 260, is running somewhere in the 4.5s, and that's crazy! He'll get down to about 245 and will likely run in the 4.4s. For reference, Jonathan Stewart ran a 4.48 at the combine at 5'11 235.
