British Guy Reacts to 10 Biggest Freaks Of Nature Currently In The NFL 

WHO'S YOUR FAVOURITE NFL PLAYER CURRENTLY???

The 40 yard dash gives nfl teams their short burst speed being 95 percent of all plays is under 40 yards

5:14 40 (36.576m) Yard Dash. He ran that in just over 4 seconds

The very fastest players can run in the 4.2x seconds for the 40. Anything under 4.4 sec in the 40 yd dash is very fast. Then you factor in how big these guys are running that fast is just crazy.

The 40-YARD dash is a sprint covering 40 yards (36.576 m). It is primarily run to evaluate the speed and acceleration of American football players by scouts, particularly for the NFL Draft but also for collegiate recruiting

Checking speed in the 40 yd sprint was started by Dallas coach Tom Landry in the mid 60's. The idea was that since most punts were 40 yds or so the tactic was that whoever was faster in the 40 could cover punts better. Then it became a standard. My senior year i was 6-3 & about 230 and i could do the 40 in 4.9, which ain't very fast in the NFL but i was usually faster than most everyone at that size i could run people down from behind and do some damage.

I’m a Niners fan, so Kittle’s my man. He was number one on this video.

Whenever i see these NFL videos, i have to keep reminding myself that the players are all like giants. When it’s just them together, there’s no perspective. Put them next to mere mortals or their significant others and you are slammed in the face with the sheer size and musculature of these amazing athletes. They can weigh 250-300 lbs and still pull out a sprint. Like an actual sprint. 6’4” is like a good height for a quarterback so he can see over his offensive linemen’s heads to see the field. Offensive lineman are some of the biggest players on the field as their job is to protect the quarterback or ball carrier. One linebacker from the steelers was literally 6’10”. Luckily his quarterback was big ben at 6’5” and Villanueva was on the end. But still that should give you some perspective. I have no idea what those numbers covert to in metric but you get the picture. It’s raw aggression and masculinity. And i love it.

As it has become a more passing league NF L linebackers have actually got smaller than they were back in the 90s so they can cover more ground and not gas out. This allows for large running backs like Henry to break more tackles. Make no mistake though he would be a great in any era.

all these Freaks but none I MEAN None are more insane than BO JACKSON.. fastest 40 yard dash 4.1 running back or Most agile player ever BARRY SANDERS.. these are 90's players but still no equal today

how fast you run the 40 yd run, it's yards because a football field is 100 yards long. To get maybe a better draft pick (NFL), they do a bunch of athletic tests to be evaluated by NFL scouts in an event called an NFL combine, that's where these numbers come from mainly.

All teams need to recruit all different types of player abilities. They have to have the speed, strength, stamina, and intelligence just to name a few. If a team doesn’t have the right player for every possible situation then they aren’t going to last very long against those teams who do. That’s one reason the draft is so important. The recruiting staff knows exactly what talent their team needs and they scout for the perfect prospect

6 ft 7in 300 plus lb lineman can run 40 yards under 6 seconds. Its insane

There’s a video of watching JJ Watt, which was a defensive van for the Houston Texas. He jumped like 6162 inches frat footed and he’s 297 pounds like 67 huge man did that crazy

Yes

That’s their speed at tryouts on the 40yard dash. It measures how fast on the jump they are. It’s very fast for big guys

I watched Aaron Donald in his college years at the University of Pittsburgh and he would annihilate offenses. Much respect to that man.

For NFL vs college, it all depends on where you are. For example, where I live, northeast Ohio, our college teams are ass, and our NFL team, the Cleveland Browns, are also ass, but the Browns also have one of the biggest and most loyal fanbases in the NFL (which is kind of expected when you have a team that hasn’t been to a national championship in 58 years and went 0-16 in 2017, after going 1-15 in 2016. But we made it the playoffs this past season, so that’s honestly all I can ask for.). So here, the NFL is much larger than college, especially since the the college team that all of us up here root for, Ohio State, is a solid 2 and a half hours away. The rivalry of Michigan and Ohio State is huge here, though. There’s even a restaurant right down the street from me that has crossed of every single ‘m’ in the entire building with a red x lmao.

Just for comparison on the 40 yard dash. Usain Bolt's fastest time for the 40 yard dash was 4.22 seconds! (According to Google)

I'm a Bears fan so I'm a little biased, check out Walter Payton and Dick Butkus... you won't be disappointed. Also check out Justin Fields highlights, not consistent as a passer, but he is consistent at being the best athlete on the field.

Henry is a modern day Jim Brown.

It’s the 40 yard dash not meters

Tom Brady’s been my favourite since grade8

Check out Kam Chancellor "the punisher" he was a freak of nature but his career was cut short in 2018 due to a fractured neck

@5:14 That means he runs a 40 yard dash from a standstill in 4.39 seconds. Thats Olympic track speed times.

4.34 seconds in the 40 yard dash

4.3/40 running 40 yards in4.3 seconds

The 4. Whatever they talk about is their 40 yard dash speed. How fast they can run 40 yards

Equivalent would be a 10.5 second 100 yard dash

Usain bolt ran the 40 yard dash at the superbowl a few years back he did it in a 4.22 which is .02 faster than the fastest 40 in the NFL but considering these guys are not dedicated sprinters and are usually rather massive being right up there with the fastest man in the world is crazy.

It’s the 40 yard dash

Derrick Henry one of my Bama Boys.

40 yards 4.4 seconds

There are some big guy freak of nature videos. You want to see an insanely strong and fast big guy watch some stuff about Larry Allen

Keenan Allen from the Chargers

4.4 in a 40 means it takes him 4.4 seconds to run 40 yards. 40 yards = 36.576 meters

The unit is in seconds. So when they say 4.2, they mean 4.2 sec to cover 40 yard dash. fyi: 1 yard = 3 feet ; So the athlete runs 40yards i.e. 120 feet in 4.2 seconds!!

It's a well made video but a little dated. These guys are still playing and still exceptional.

4.3 seconds across 40 yards.

Most recievers and running backs are Usain Bolt fast. Whilst wearing pads and helmets it slows them down very little.

40 yard dash

You should watch the most feared tacklers in NFL history, then watch NFL films on each one. Watch about Larry Allen, Dick Butkas and others.

Derrick Henry, hands down. He's from my favorite team, the Tennessee Titans.King Henry

Even the big guys are super human fast

40 yards bro. we don't work with meters on this end of the pond.

4.2 seconds in 40 yards

10 yards a second

It's how fast they can run 40 yrds

It's an outdoor sport played in fall and winter

4.2 seconds. These guys are running yards in seconds

Patrick Mahomes is God's gift to nfl. Look up his highlights.

Pretty much every big guy in the NFL would easily outrun you

40 yards.

Aaron Rodgers most beautiful throws of all time

You want freak of nature. Look up Larry Allen

Yeah, I've not (really) watched the NFL since Joe Montana & Boomer Esiason days. (80's). One of the reasons I watched this ;)

It's 40 yards.

Watch Barry sanders to 50 plays

the NFL or professional sports teams are becoming more popular in Europe but it's a long ways away before it becomes a main street sports event.

think 40 meters in 4 seconds 😮

we use yards in the USA, not meters.

There are no meters in football.

where is trent williams?

Aaron Donald is "Small Massive" ? Lol I think you need to convert pounds to Kilograms or whatever you use 280 pounds in top shape (and thats an understatement)

Yards not meters

that's 40 yards, not meters

Watch KC chiefs!! Pat Mahomes Quarterback and tight end travis kelce, Tyreek hill, wide receiver!! Superbowl winners last year, baby!!

There should never be any video of top NFL players that doesn't include Patrick Mahomes (KC Chiefs #15). He is the best in the NFL and the best thing to ever happen to the NFL. He's changed the game by the way he plays and he's changed the game because every other team is trying to build teams that can compete against him. Not sure he's the best to watch if you want to understand the game, though, because he does stuff no one else could ever do. If you want textbook, stick with Burrow & Allen. If you want to see the improbable, look for Mahomes!

Where is McCaffrey?

Jackson aint how they hype him up😂😂😂 just watch football.

Seconds

Lol let the NBA put together their best team and go play NFL team😆

Travis Kelce! Best tight end in the league!! His stats say it all but hes FUN TO WATCH!!

40 yards in 4.4 seconds

40 yard dash. The time they give is seconds. Tell the kid. He doesn't need a whole load of bullshit stats
