Star ratings for players going to NFL combine

not a completely telling stat.

so a higher percentage of 5 stars made the combine

exactly....+1

Well Rival top 30-33 and Scouts top 50 are 5*. Most of these players are the same but not all. So thats 40% of Scouts and 66% of Rivals are at the combine.

those percentages are not right

the report says that 20 FIVE Stars are that the combine ... 20 out of a possible 80-83 ... which means that about 25% of FIVE Stars were invited

still ... stars matter


EDIT: I'm "thinking" that your number may be closer to the truth than mine ... trying to multi-task here, I assumed there were no players that were in both lists ... Did you actually determine how many Five Stars that were invited ... were on both lists? ... the way I see your number is that all 20 players of the Scouts 5 Star List that were selected, would have had to also been on the Rivals List of ... there's a good chance of that ... which is why I say you are probably closer to the truth than I was

I would be willing to bet that there's a higher percentage of 4-5 stars over the others. Which would still confirm that theres a bigger chance at hitting a homerun with recruiting those types of prospects

i think its very telling, since there are so few 5 stars each year, and hundreds of 3 and 2 stars
ppl always love to point out when a 2 or 3 star turn out to be good, but it is very rare, 5 stars usually pan out

Did Ryan Perrilloux get invited?

I like the part that 13% of the combine participants weren't even ranked coming out of H.S.

Wow you guys are clueless. Scout and rivals don't rate different guys....

Assuming these ranking are from scout, in 2005 there were 50 five star players. Having 20 of them there isn't that great.

Rivals only had 28....
