Seems to me that the combine anymore has become more of a beauty contest like the Miss America pageant than a true evaluation of football talent ..
I suppose it's nice to know how fast a left tackle can run 40 yards in a straight line, but let's be realistic. When was the last time we had to actually watch a 350 pound grown man who can lift cars above their heads run 40 yards anywhere ?
I suspect the combine is more about marketing the league to fans than actually evaluating real football talent.. Then again ,whaddoiknow?
