An obvious test of strength, it gives teams a baseline to compare power and, in some cases, experienced strength training. Some NFL teams prefer to test pure strength at prospects' other, individual workouts, and for a long time, some have advocated for the inclusion of squats as a part of strength testing.
ESPECIALLY important for offensive and defensive linemen, the bench press can be a testament to ENDURANCE. Benching 225 pounds 15 or 20 times is expected for a lineman, but his getting into the 30s can be indicative of TRANSLATABLE STRENGTH that could lead to EARLY contributions.

Just curious of your interpretation of this...and yes..i know you practice this field in particular

Yep, it certainly was a good measurable with Russell Bodine.
