Bleacher Report Scouts Say we have a bottom 5 OT and Center

That is because preparing to perform at the combine is a bit like perfecting your favorite party trick.  I once knew a guy that bench pressed 225 for 25 reps, it was his thing.  However, that same guy got buried under 315, and we had to pull it off of him.

I feel the same way about some of the 40 and shuttle times.  Anyone can train like a track athlete for 3 months and boost their speed, agility numbers.  The real measure is playing speed, and playing strength.  You can't get an accurate measure of playing speed and strength at the underwear Olympics.  To determine that, you have to watch the film.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
