Also take into account how many of the same franchises are good or better constantly and never really fall off for decades at a time. Some teams scout great for the type of team they want to build. They even cut guys or trade guys because they know they can get production cheaper/longer in the draft. It's not a joke, everyone just thinks they know better. You get to pick 255 guys, the front office/coaching staff gets 7....

Any time a player breaks the combine and there's a lot of buzz around them, they usually never pan out after being drafted

When Orlando was getting so much bad press, especially when his weight lifting wasn't "up to par", it was his QB from OU who took up for him. When asked about him by the media, Baker Mayfield said he didn't know what happened at the Combine, but every team should be trying to get him as those results didn't accurately portray his skills. He then said when pressed, "Well, Orlando protected me and never let anyone get through". That meant a lot from the #1 pick of the draft that year. This is why teammates loved Baker. Unless you are a prima donna who hurts the team, he always has his teammate's back. Orlando didn't perform as well at the Combine, but I agree Orlando is great, wish he & Baker would be reunited on a team. I think he was at OU at the Heisman statue unveiling on campus last weekend.

Zach seems like he's not the average white kid though, he seems very mobile, and he seems a lot more athletic than someone such as myself with average ass tall white boy genetics.

The combine doesn't measure what's between your ears or whats beating in your chest.

Chuck knoll said " fellas, we're gonna time you, measure you, see how high you can jump, and then we're gonna see if you can play. "- Merrill hodge

It’s amazing how a combine performance can cause a team to pick a bad player early, or a good player late.

Is it though? If you feel like you have a coachable player, you have a belief in your system and ability to coach that player up, it's not hard at all to see dreaming big on insane physical traits. Same can be seen in reverse when a mass of goo is woefully unathletic with tiddies flopping faster than his feet... 🤷‍♂️

I’m glad the young man is improving.

The Combine is a decent test to see how players can react under pressure in person, but definitely not a test to see how well a person will adjust to pro ball from college ball or how good they will be in the future.

As THE HALL OF FAME MARK MAYE SAYS. NO ONE SHOULD BE JUDGED BY HOW WELL THEY JUMP ON A BOX 🙄

Could’ve just been a bad day where he wasn’t feeling 100%. If I was a GM or Head Coach of an NFL team in desperate need to improve its O-line, and the guy was originally projected to be a first round draft pick based on what he did game after game after game on the field in college and his college stats for an OL were top notch, I would not overly concern myself with the kid having one bad day doing exercise drills. 14 reps for an OL isn’t considered good at the Combine, but it’s not like the kid was being projected as a low draft pick (like 5th or 6th round). I would prioritize all that video footage I saw of him in multiple, high-caliber college games against the best competition in the country versus one day doing random exercise drills.

Bench press reps for guys with long arms mean nothing. The bench press is the single most overrated exercise on the planet, something for meat heads with their stubby little arms to brag about in the gym, has nothing to do with NFL ability.

Never ever allow yourself to be defined by others! Work, work and really hard work will get you far.

Its crazy how much the combine can affect draft stock. Look at 2024 Payton Wilson ran 40 yd dash in 4.3, crazy vertical leap and super amount of bench press reps. Due to his past injuries seems it may repeat in the future but his combine high turn out is putting him drad in the 1st round of the fraft when actually hes a high 2nd round pick due to his past injuries.

The combine does certain NFL prospects no justice

No. What you witnessed was a guy who was confident to know he was an asset to a team and chose not to take a chance on hurting himself before he was even drafted. Showed ppl he wasn’t too good then became a top Tackle once he was drafted. These guys are taking more notice of how meaningless the combine is and are not trying to “show off” for a spectacle.

I don't think a person would purposely Tank their Draft stock out of the first round to play on a good team. If you're good you're gonna eventually get a pay day regardless, and being selected in the first round just raises the amount of money you'll make in your career.

This is case by case. For guys with top production or tape, it can cause a decrease in stock, but not break them. Some individuals from small schools or less impressive statistics it is an absolute game changer. Exhibit: Christine Michael to the Seahawks as a 2nd rounder when he barely produced in college.

Mean while Walker was relegated to being a run defender/holding the edge and rarely even pass rushed.

How you perform in a REAL GAME is the only thing that matters . Combine proves nothing but athleticism.

I had a 4.71 40 as a RB and no one could fn touch me. I was well rounded in agility, elusiveness, shifting, and my center of gravity was insane. In fact, being a little slower helped me stop on the dime and allow fast running g defenders to pass me up every time.

It depends on position but at the end of the day it all comes down to the gut feeling of the GM.

You can improve a player's strength, speed and stamina relatively easily. Improving their skill levels, game IQ and ability to perform under pressure is much, much harder

Tom Brady had one of the worst quarterback combines at the time and was picked in the 6th round with the 100th overall pick as a backup but after the Patriots starting qb got injured and had to retire Tom came in and is now known as the best football qb or player to play in the nfl (Edit: Brady was actually picked with the 199th overall pick and also the guy that was the starting qb for the patriots before Tom Brady came in didn’t retire.)
