theogt;3228602 said:His speed is overrated. He'd probably run a 4.60 or higher at the combine, which for a 6'1", 240 lb. linebacker isn't all that impressive (the 4.4 was ran on a gymnasium floor). It's not bad, just not impressive.
The fast gymnasium time was at his Pro Day at WIU, however he recorded similar times at the Northwestern Pro Day.
DuSable product Williams star of show at Northwestern pro day

Western Illinois linebacker Jason Williams created a buzz last week at his school's pro day when he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.46 seconds. Problem was, it was on the school's basketball court and most observers acknowledged you had to add at least one-tenth of a second to his time. So, he showed up at Northwestern's pro day Thursday and did one better, running between 4.42 and 4.48 on a much slower artificial surface in the school's indoor facility. The 2008 Buck Buchanan Award finalist, a DuSable graduate, boosted himself even more for the NFL draft.
