Jackson is noticeably better in speed and agility drills compared to Turner


I don't know about noticeably. His biggest advantage was the 20 yard short shuttle - 4.78 to 4.95

40 time - Jackson 5.51 Turner 5.58

3 cone - Jackson 8.25 Turner 8.2

Yeah that's actually very comparable times. Jackson actually did slightly worse in one.

Do you have the bench numbers on hand?

Edit:
Found them. Identical bench at 30 so the strength argument doesn't hold either.

Now at some point Turner pulled a hammy in the 40(?) I believe it said, so I don't know what drills he did before and after that, but Turner's vert (19 to 29) and broad (7' something to 9' even) was noticably worse. That's a huge vert gap. Not that offensive linemen need hops.

Turner broad jumped 7'4" to Jackson 9'
Vert 19" to Jackson 29"

You can't use Turners pro day 3 cone compared to Jacksons combine

Pro day 3 cone for both

Jackson 7.91
Turner 8.2

As you mentioned the 20 yard shuttle

Those are noticeable differences in the most important drills
