40 times mean nothing. What matters is "can you get open".
Neither Jerry Rice nor Larry Fitzgerald ran great 40 times.

Nothing wrong with the 40 time. the 33" vertical does make me doubt how athletic he really is. Should be a solid, but not great NFL WR.

Refresh my memory on how many NFL games Treadwell has played and how many NFL catches he has

Sprint speed is one of the least relavent predictors there is out there. There is an insignificant difference between a 4.45 and a 4.65 as far as a cover corner is concerned. But when you look at the elite forty times ever run at the combine, Jordy Nelson is far and away the most successful reciever in that group. There are more 4.7 plus guys that make a significant contribution in the NFL than there are sub 4.3 guys. You aren't beating NFL defenses deep a whole lot either way with your speed. You do it with scheme. Treadwell is a tenth faster than jerry Rice, who was an elite deep threat. The thing with treadwell that will make him elite is that he's physical and has great hands in a first down oriented league. He will move the chains and he will improve your perimeter running game and the offense that gets him will be better.

Treadwell will be a fine WR in the NFL.
At worst, he'll be a top level #2 guy for a long time. We'll see if he can hold down the #1 WR slot for a team and how he handles all that pressure. I think he'll be fine.
One thing you get with Treadwell that none of these other WR's bring to the table is blocking. Treadwell blocks like a TE. He manhandles DB's and loves doing it.
Whoever gets him not only gets a boost to the passing attack but will get one of the best blocking WR's in the NFL the day he steps on the field.

I just would rather a Julio Jones than a Colston at this point if I'm going WR in Round 1, and I am not so sure Treadwell is more Julio than Colston at this point.
Guys like Julio don't come around very often. Treadwell may not be a home run hitter, but he'll do just fine in the NFL. Anquan Boldin was never known as a deep threat either, but he had great hands, was tough as nails in traffic, a good blocker and ran a 4.71 at the combine.
