Its not a good way to judge a player. It is a good way to judge a player's attributes. Speed is a strength in the NFL. Its a commodity that many teams pay heavily for. It (40s) allows a player to demonstrate his strengths to potential suitors. So yeah, alot of stock is put into 40 times. Is it a telling factor of how good a player is or will be.... no by any means. But it does give another area to be evaluated thus giving scouts a broader view of a player's skills.
