I've heard college coaches say the slowest they'd look at for a center fielder is 7.2 and that's if he gets great reads/jumps off the bat. Jameis played right field, speed is important but you don't need to be a sub-7 guy. All useless of course considering he's a pocket passer (same for Carden).
ECU has an outfielder commit who has ran a 6.2. He will probably go pro though I would think.
Not many people can run sub-5.0 second 40 yard dashes, much less those which weigh 200lb's+. It's faster than you'd think, Arian Foster ran a 4.7, which would put you ~3 yards behind him. Anyone here think that after 37 yards of sprinting they'd be more than two steps behind him raise your hand.

I would catch him but he would drag me the remaining 60 yards to the endzone.

Being a Jets fans I've seen Brooks Bollinger, Kliff Kingsbury (Yep, that one), Matt Simms, Glenn Foley, Rick Mirer, Kevin O'Connell, Chad Pennington playing with a RE-torn rotator cuff and 40+ year old Vinny Testaverde playing QB.

In a world where multiple teams are pursuing Josh McCown I think it's pretty clear that anybody has a shot at starting in the NFL. Maybe the stars have to align just right but the chance is there.
I think quickness, elusiveness and strength seem to be more important for big, strong QB's to break tackles, avoid the rush and gain some yardage where needed.
Obviously physical/test drill stats are just one aspect in regards to scouting QB's (or any position), bottom line...good performers (and busts) are found up and down the spectrum of rankings.
Bortles and Winston played in college systems that would be more closely called "NFL Type Offenses" vs what ECU ran most of the time.
Here's a quick shot at stats from the NFL Combine for these 3 players:
