It depends on your age and position you are trying to play. For college, anything below 7.0 seconds is considered good. Average is between 7.1 and 7.3. Above that is considered more on the slow side. Catchers, 1B, and Pitchers have the least need to be fast, and can get away with being a little over 7.0 or so. Middle infielders need to be quicker, probably under 7.0 or right at it. Outfielders are usually the fastest players on the team, and in college, will usually run at or under 6.9. I have seen an outfielder run a 6.8 and another one run a 6.7, which is very fast.

I would assume you are looking for what is a fast 40 yard dash time, as this is the standard distance that is used to determine speed amongst football players. And to answer that, a fast, professional time would be 4.3-4.4 for the fastest players. It all depends on the position. DB's and WR's will obviously have faster times, than DL and OL.
No, it is terrible. Any average weekend warrior could break 6 seconds in a 40 yard dash.
It is great if you are a kid, but if you are over age 40, it sucks.
6.43 on a sixty yard dash is very good. Unless you plan to be in the Olympia's in which case, not so good.
