Top Ten 40 Times by Position for 2009 Draft

Speed is the most important physical quality on the football field. You can’t teach it, but at some areas of play (OL, QB, DT) it is of lesser importance. Case in point: Tom Marino’s top individual player at each of these positions were nowhere to be found in the top ten speed groupings.
