yeah, 40 times are really pretty flawed. Thats why so many track guys get in the NFL and just suck it up. Running in shorts is a lot different than running in pads while exhausted and trying to read an offense/defense on the fly while also getting pushed around. Slow mental reactions and limited football experience knocks most of the track guys out within the first two years.

Of course, sometimes you get guys like Moss who are also football players.

It's kind of ironic that most of the people in this list are there for 40 times, but in the workout blurbs they don't have video of the drills to watch or anything of the like, so all you get are heights weights and 40 times... which also accounts for the lack of OL/DL guys.
