Not terrible but toward the bottom of the pack. Miami's Ereck Flowers put up 37 for the best so far.
I think the amount of bench pressing 225 all in a row is a bad gauge of strength. I bet his single rep max is right there with most top guys. It's not like he will have a play snapped every 1/2 second. Why not let them bench 300-350 and give them 20 seconds between each rep. Time how fast each rep is and judge which lineman's explosion slows down the most after 10-15 reps. I think that would be more accurate. Moffit trains for football explosiveness not how many reps in a row. Ask opposing DL if Collins wasn't one of the strongest OL they played against. Lol
