Alright posters let me ask you a question....

Who is faster when completely healthy Devon Hester or Ted Ginn Jr.?

I would have to go with Hester by a very slim margin while both are explosive Hestor just makes it look too easy...

It would only be fair to compare college tape since Ginn Jr. hasn't reached the NFL yet..

Ginn (at 75%)
40 Yrd Dash: 4.38
20 Yrd Dash: 2.48
10 Yrd Dash: 1.47

Hester (at 100%)
40 Yrd Dash: 4.41
20 Yrd Dash: 2.59
10 Yrd Dash: 1.54

Now, who would be the better return man in the NFL is a very different question. But clearly, Ginn is faster.

Please stop comparing clocked 40 times, I'm talking about REAL game speed, there is a difference.

OK, well, I'm open to being convinced. Please present your evidence that proves Hester is faster.

Not really. In the game, other factors may come into play like vision and ability to shift body weight, but you asked about speed. Ginn is faster.

In a race, Ginn would win by a long shot. As Deon usted to say, Ginn would be high-stepping after the first 20 yards.

Deon also said that Hester was just as fast as he used to be...at least according to the NFLN.

How in the world can you look at a TV screen and tell who is faster. :laugh2: That is ridiculous. All you have is timed speed to go on or a flat out race.
