    I ran a 7.32 60 yard dash in a tryout for baseball, but never ran the 40. I suppose it'd be around 5 in the 40 yard dash then.

    4.7 senior year in HS, was better at gassers (200 yds, not meters) I want to say backs and receivers had to run sub 40 and I was always around the 35-36 mark

    Right now at 38 years old, a 4.9

    ran hand clocked 4.48 and 4.49 at a college camp going into my senior year of high school and ran hand clocked 4.51's-4.55's all the way through college....that would translate out to about a 4.6 using the accutrack at the combine

    I would run hand timed 40's for football (played receiver and safety) in the 4.7 range. I think there is some hot air up in this thread... Lol.

    Let's start a thread on our salary range...... :D This 205lb white boy is probably the slowest guy in his 20's from this forum. Maybe 30's and 40's too. :D

    You guys realize most NFL receivers run 4.5's, right? Laser times that is.

    Add .2 or .3 to any hand timed 40 you ever ran to get a better comparison to an electronic timed 40.
