still, taking an absolute combine freak donald, measured at 6'1" and 285, we can see his combine 40 was 4.68. That in itself is a far cry from 4.6, not to mention wyatt has 3 inches and 15 pounds on him to boot.

So what would you say he runs?
All I said was that he runs a 4.6 or close to it. Plus the best recruiting service in the business is the one who has him posted at 4.6. I think if you actually watch film on him then you will see that the number may not be so far fetched.
Plus your examples of OL and their 40 is laughable since he plays DL and DL guys are more athletic than OL on avg. Plus this guy is listed at 6'4, 300 lbs. Plus on the track video of him that I posted, he looks closer to the 4.6 than to a 5.0 forty time.
So when you say you will bet your life, what if he eventual runs a 4.6 say at his pro day? Or does it need to be at the combine only? I get hand times are not accurate, but I would say they usually are .1-.2 off, obviously they can be much worse, but what people have listed at their pro day vs combine, should reflect this. Even then if you at .2 to his 4.6, that will be a 4.8 and he still looks faster than that.
Plus here is another video of him playing RB. Don't think they would let a 4.9 guy play RB but I guess so.

Holy shite that's crazy! If he can do that for 100 yds I'd like to try him at punt returner. Could you imagine trying to tackle that?

I don't think he was calling you out. You were only going by the information you got from the recruiting service. (I shouldn't speak for WG, though) The recruiting service is getting their information from him or his coach. If he doesn't camp, then it's the only way they could be getting it. And coaches are notoriously wrong. They fudge on 40 times, weight, and height. He is obviously faster than most people his size, but when you are talking about 40 times, .5 is a huge difference. My guess is he is running closer to a 4.8 or 4.9....and WG is right. That is a big difference. And don't be fooled by a YouTube video, either. Nobody knows who those guys are he is racing against, or how fast they are. I looked up his track record, and (What i found) it showed him doing the shot put...not any running events. If he had world class speed, he would be running in running events. Maybe he runs out of gas and can't run a 100? Possibly.
I checked combine times for DLinemen too. The DT's were all about where the Olinemen were, too. The only DLinemen with close times to 4.6 were 240 pound DE's.
