The next time somone knocks a prospect because of their 40, just consider Kareem Hunt's 4.62. Not terrible, but not good either and probably enough to hurt a players draft grade by a round or two. Anyone know what his 10 and 20 yard splits were?
 
He improved on his pro day to 4.57. Faster than Bell's combine time and even with Barry Foster. I liked Hunt and mock drafted him for us in rounds 3-4. He has quite a burst on film. Not sure about his 10 yard dash time.
 
These are from his Wikipedia page:

What's Usain Bolts 40 time? I remember hearing that it would be very NFL average. After 15 yds though, look the **** out.
I've always thought 40 times were overrated.

Yes 40 times are overrated if one's performance is underwhelming.

It depends on the position. Some of the best RB's in the history of the NFL were not fast 40 yard dash people, In General, speed is needed more on defense.
 
Hunt looks like the steal of the draft, Hard to believe he was taken in the same round as Conner.
