If you have ever wondered just how long it would take Olympic sprinter Usain Bolt to run the 40-yard dash, you don’t have to wonder any longer.

On Saturday, Bolt, who is 32, ran the 40-yard dash at the Super Bowl and he did so faster than any NFL player in history not named John Brown look slow.
Take a look below as Bolt, who is wearing sweats and sneakers runs the 40-yard dash in 4.22 seconds, the same time Brown ran it at the 2017 NFL Scouting Combine.
Usain Bolt just tied the NFL combine record for the 40-yard dash at 4.22 seconds 😳

Just imagine how quickly Bolt would have run when he was about 21 years old and dressed appropriately!

Polar Vortex 2019!
What better time than to write up my first full Detroit Lions 2019 NFL Mock Draft?
Let me begin by saying these mock drafts are extremely fluid as free agency will play a huge role in what direction Lions’ GM Bob Quinn decides to go in the NFL Draft.
For example, I personally believe that acquiring an edge rusher should be the number one priority this offseason and I would have to believe that Quinn agrees with that. But if he goes out and signs a big name DE such as Trey Flowers out of New England (yes, please!), the chances of the Lions drafting an edge rusher with their No. 8 pick in the first round would drop, though it is still possible.
This volume of my full Detroit Lions mock draft focusses on what the current needs are at this moment in time as if not a single free agent is signed.
So, with that understood, let’s take a look at Vol. 1 of my full Detroit Lions 2019 ‘Perfect’ NFL Mock Draft.
