I cant believe this is coming up again. Can an olympic sprinter actually ever make it as a NFL player that can produce. What ever happened the first time the Texans were looking at one of these sprinters. Personally I dont think it could ever work. I ran track and had some sprinting skills, so i know from personal experience that when a true sprinter is at full speed to run the supposed 4.0-4.2 forty times it takes at least another 20 yards or so to even slow down. Being a wide receiver would never work. And if it did they could only go deep, which would be so predictable it wouldnt work either. Maybe and this is just a maybe, they could be some sort of special team returner or something like that, but nothing more. It is just physically impossible to slow down and stop quick enough to be effective in the NFL. Is there anyone out there that thinks one cold actually exist in the league.
