If a Had to guess, off the top of my head, no looking it up, in no particular order:

1)Percy Harvin~maybe not anymore, Lamichael James is pretty fast isn't he?
2)Marquis Goodwin
3)Trindon Holliday
4)Tavon Austin
5)Chris Johnson~~maybe not anymore Ill guess Kenny Stills if CJ2k has lost a step or two.

Its kind of hard to know as they don't really run 40s much after they're already drafted!

Here's a list though:

Not so surprisingly, most of them are WR/CB except for Chris Johnson. It is kind of what made him so incredible, running that speed as a RB is insane. I'll be interested to see Seastrunk's time just because.

Thanks for sharing, swinderman.

It's also not surprising that 5 of the top 10 guys on the electronically timed list were drafted by the Raiders.

The fact that Bo Jackson, at around 225 lbs is anywhere on these lists is insane. That man was just an incredible athlete. I loved watching him play and feel robbed he got hurt and was never the same.

I read the OP as FATEST in the NFL... I thought Marquis Goodwin was a joke.
Turns out Tolbert is the joke.

It actually boggles my mind how fast Holliday looks when he hits his stride.
