As far as Adrain Peterson goes. Check out what Yahoo Sports had to say about him on their NFL Combine blog.
Oklahoma running back Adrian Peterson, who plans to run the 40-yard dash this weekend, checked in at 6-foot-1/4 and 217 pounds, roughly 10 pounds lighter than he was during the season. According to a source close to Peterson, he was timed between 4.28 and 4.35 second in the 40-yard dash in his preparation for the combine.
