Will watch exactly 0 minutes of it this year


Should be discontinued completely. These so called experts have years of game film, Pro days & they need to probe, poke & pry even more? Despite the combine most of these bastids still draft horribly.


I may understand a little bit more if they want to take measurables of FCS/ D2 guys under similar conditions , but I'm still not totally convinced here about combines.

Anybody that’s drafts off of results at the combine, especially 40 time, is not doing his job. However the medical evaluations and interviews huge.

With medical evaluations you don’t get the program height and weight, but rather the actual size of the player. This is also a lot of teams’ first chance to get to interview these players.

While I used to get jazzed up for all of the drills despite knowing that they rarely translated to the field, I completely get that the boring, shite for tv aspects of the combine are the most important.

It’s also a great time to get all the nfl execs in the same area to talk trades and moves.
