No, I just want to make it a serious subject I think it could happen. The Bears have already said they want to sign him. Me personally, I'd like to see him play because he'd burn the old fastest NFL player, Deion Sanders. He'd make a killer KR too. Can you imagine Bolt as a WR? Bolt would burn any CB in the league. Heck if the Bears want they can sign him as a CB and move him to WR like they did Devin Hester.

Re: ESPN: Usain Bolt Could Go to the NFL

We've seen crazy NCAA/Olympic speedsters in the NFL, and speed alone does not make a great receiver. We have no clue how well he can catch the ball, he may be like that guy in "Necessary Roughness" who was a track star but couldn't catch a cold.

The question about all of this is simple.

Why would Bolt do it? I can't see him doing it unless he gets at least a couple million.

Are you reading what I've writing? The Bears have shown interest in signing him. So, if he wanted that much the Bears would be more than happy to give it to him.

Re: ESPN: Usain Bolt Could Go to the NFL

lateral movement matters just as much if not more than straight ahead speed. Football speed.

Here's your answer. His 40 time converted is "4.35".

It's not gonna happen but Walter Dix(US sprinter) ran the 40 in 3.75 and he's not close to being as fast as Usain Bolt.

If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)
