Overrated? Maybe a little

The NFL interview process started last week by the start of the NFL combine for all want to be professional football players to make there case on why they should get drafted. The combine is in some way overrated. Players can move from getting drafted in the third- fourth round to second maybe first just on if they run a good forty time. Also players draft stock can drop if they don't bench press a decent amount and the scouts then think they are weak. I think the combine is great but all this stuff means nothing when it comes down to actually playing football. So that corner that ran a 4.33 second forty cover a wide receiver on a huge third down play and not get beat? A forty cant tell you that, watching game tape might. The best way to judge talent is watching tape and seeing if the player makes the same mistake over and over. Or if the player corrects the mistake and improves on it. So the combine is great but it shouldn't make a player lose millions because they didn't run a blazing 40 time and then get drafted lower than expected.
