I think the first 10 yards of the 40 show how fast a guy will be on the field. Who is the fastest "game speed" guy in the league?

I was thinking Hester or maybe Bob Sanders. Those two guys might not have the fastest 40s in the NFL but few can match their speed on the field. Here's another couple guys that can fly as far as a 10 yard burst goes, Demarcus Ware and Dwight Freeney.

VICK....is he still a choice?....lol....i know what u mean....the first few steps i think ne defensive lineman has them beat.....i think that wes welker is fast in that regard....getting from yard marker to yard marker....i was just pointing out that sometimes the 40 times do project how good a player can be....hester and cribbs show that every kick and punt return they get

That there is the key. Reaction time to ball or player. After that it is all catch-up which can mean TD against.

BTW - Your avatar; my favourite poster for absolute years. In fact, it still means a big deal to me.
