Is the combine shorting or are the pro days more generous?


Considering most players seem to improve, sometimes significantly, at their home stadiums/facilities, I'd going to assume there might be a little home cooking going on.

I assume that has always been the assumption, which is part of the reason they started the combine back in 80s. Even if the combine's measurements are a little off, it 40.1 yards, 3 cones are a little wider, tape measure is not calibrated...everyone is getting measured/timed with the exact same device

I saw a documentary about a sheriff's deputy who stretched himself taller for his physical. So you know it can be done!

Pro Days are always more generous with measurements and speed.

It quite literally does matter, just like size/weight/speed matters to athleticism

Yeah and Patrick Mahomes small hands are a factor, Brady's speed and lack of athleticism sure hindered him, and what about Brees and his height? At the end of the day none of that shite matters. You can play or you can't. Sure something like a 4.3 40 is impressive ,but it is in a controlled environment without pads. You think that 1/4 or 1/8 will make a difference? No it won't.
