Last year, then-Kent State tailback Dri Archer came within two-hundredths of a second within tying Chris Johnson’s recent Combine standard-setting time of 4.24 seconds in the 40-yard dash.
Overall, Archer — later drafted by the Steelers — was just the fifth Combine participant to be clocked at less than 4.30 seconds in the 40 since 2006, per NFL data.
We mention this with the news that online sports book Bovada.lv has set the Over-Under on the fastest 40 at the 2015 Scouting Combine at 4.28 seconds. The Over and Under are set at the same odds.
NFL Media draft analyst Mike Mayock told The MMQB this week that three wide receivers were especially fast in this draft class, including Phillip Dorsett of Miami (Fla.).
With this, we turn to you. Will any prospect run faster than 4.28 this year? Let us know via the poll and in the comments.
