Combine report

Written on February 26, 2008 – 6:39 am | by chanceblack |

A lot of people have asked me what is the purpose of the Combine. Well the short version is, there are things that coaches can’t teach that you can see at the combine. Like speed, agility, personality. Also the things that coaches can teach, but want to know how much work needs to be invested in a player. You don’t want a guy who will take a long time to grasp formations, schemes, or will take a long time to get into shape. The overall question is can they play? If these other things are in place then playing on that level “should” come to them easily. Sunday was skill postion day for the offense: QB,RB,WR,. Here are some of the 40 times for RBs and WRs.
