Jackson in 1986 is reported to have ran a 40-yard dash at the combine in 4.12
He ran one later in the week that was on record and confirmed at 4.18

The fastest since 1999 is Chris Johnson at 4.24

He won the Heisman, was good enough to play at the major league level in the corner OF and could have been a medalist in the Olmpic games.

If you judge him just based on pure athleticism he is right up there at the top.
In the last 30 years I think only Lebron James could challenge him.
