That is to say by the time Johnson gets in the endzone Jackson will be ~2.5 yards behind him. You want Johnson.

Barry Sanders would be 20 yards behind those guys but I would still pick him...

Football isn't a trackmeet. Sultan McCullough anyone?
Also, Rogers-Cromartie tracked CJ down 2 weeks ago. CJ still got the TD But DRC made up alot of ground on him.

JOSH CRIBBS!!!! I love this guy! Plays on a shitty team but he's just a straight up baller. He's just a pure 100% football player. You could line him up at rb, kick off return, punt return, wr, db, he can run the wildcat.....As Deion says, "PAY THE MAN!"

didn't johnny knox run a 4.25 40 at th combine last year, he doesn't get much talk since he is on the bears but he has to be up there this year with special team yards

I'd take stephen hawking if he were going 99 yards against the redskins defense that played last night.

also Chris Johnson has amazing vision,he sets up his blockers perfectly. Saden on that article you posted,did you notice the 3rd fastest back?
"Houston's Anthony Alridge ran 4.33 for the third-fastest time." We've got to get this guy in a game and see what he can do,let him return punts,something

I went with Chris Johnson on this one. One could argue that Desean Jackson has longer plays this year, but that is because Jackson gets the ball in space. If Johnson was to get more balls in space I believe that his numbers would be greater than Jackson's.

I believe also that neither of these guys can touch Hester in a return competition. The problem is that Hester is focusing more on his recieving job than being the alternate return man. I believe that Hester is faster on the football field and has more natural ability to make guys miss in the open field. I just cannot pick him this year though.

One play 99 yards, give me Bo Jackson from Tecmo. I'll zig-zag all the way down the field.

I would have to go with Vick! But D. Green in his prime would also be a great pick!

Joshua Cribbs! Right now, no one is better in the open field. Chris Johnson is great but for one play, give me Cribbs.
