Well that is pretty good but if your small for that position (i dont know your size and weight) you should be a pretty good LB. im no expert but 4.7 is pretty good speed for LB. But keep working on your moves at DE and like the other guy said, watch Julius Peppers.

There were LB's and DE's at the NFL Combine this week that were running in that range. If you can work on sprint training and maybe shave a couple of tenths off of it you might be able to get some scholarship offers to big schools. However, I think 4.7 would work for some of the smaller programs. Maybe Division II or III.
How are your other skills progressing? How big are you? That will all factor in too. But, I'd say 4.7 is a great start.

Its good considering most backs run a 4.4 to a 4.5 time in the 40 yard dash, but how big are you? depending on what type of defense your team runs in high school and in college for that matter your speed isn't gonna mean much if you are undersized and getting blown off the ball.

That is good fo any position...How big are you..I don't think you be playing DE in the next level..your to small and if your not..you watch was way off or broken..
You have the speed of a pro strong safty...Good luck and help the Eagles win a super bowl when you get older..

I guess it might be for High School, but once you get into college and getting more mass, make sure speed doesnt drop which it will.
Try hitting 4.5 before you enter college. RUN HILLS with pads on

That's good, but your size and length are also important. Keep working on your speed, strength, and moves. Watch Julius Peppers play.

Yes, that's pretty good for a Defensive Lineman

You have to be big and strong, not just fast.
