I actually think this part is more important than a lot of the tests, because frankly, you can't teach a player to grow longer arms or bigger hands, and you can't coach height. The game is played in 10-yard increments. A tenth of a second here or there isn't going to sway this front office, I don't believe, though it seems obvious to me that Seattle gravitates toward the top athletes at each position, so it's almost a given that they'll test well.Schneider, from that SIRIUS interview last year, going into the Draft.
To learn more or opt-out, read our.The NFL Combine starts this week, so here's a synopsis of what the Seahawks will be looking for in the testing process.The NFL Combine descends upon the world this week and starting on Wednesday then running through Sunday, we'll be inundated with data on '40' times, short shuttle times, vertical jump measurements, height, weight, arm length, hand size, agility, speed, power, finesse and so on for the 300+ players taking part this year.Weeding through the vast amount of numbers won't be easy, but here's a quick little refresher course on what to keep an eye on, as it specifically relates to the.First off - what is the primary goal for the Seahawks as this front office and coaching staff head to Indianapolis? The long arms, the length, really helped, especially as we got into a one-gap scheme in the NFL - because the longer the length, the better the defender could close out the gap. section: | slug: nfl-combine-2020-results-mekhi-becton-andrew-thomas-shine-as-offensive-linemen-weigh-in | sport: football | route: article_single_special | Tight ends, quarterbacks, linebackers, and defensive ends will shoot for the 4.5 - 4.8 range, depending on the size/type of each player. At 6'5 1/8", Andrew Thomas has an arm length of 36 1/8". You get anyone under 4.0 seconds, and they're agile as shit. Because, when you could push those hands into somebody, they were really like weapons.
Sometimes tight ends too.More important to the 40 though, are the 10-yard splits. Speaking of...This exercise also measures lateral agility and change of direction, but better tells scouts how quickly a player can sink their hips, change direction, and get back up to speed.
They really focus on finding guys with unique talents that fit into their system and that's what has made Seattle's drafting so successful over the past few years.This mindset, interestingly and funnily enough, was inherited from the one guy that everyone loves to make fun of when it comes to the NFL Combine: the late Al Davis.John Schneider is a mentee and protégé of both Ted Thompson and Ron Wolf, as is de facto Seahawks' head scout Scot McCloughan.
It means a guy can move.I know that the 40 isn't super important when it comes to either a defensive tackle or offensive lineman, but you heard the Seahawks' coaching staff just raving about how quickly.The short shuttle measures change of direction, agility, and explosiveness, much like the 10-yard split would.
",Similarly, Scot McCloughan, who had a major part in building the current.So, what does this mean for the Combine? The 3-cone is probably the most physically important drill at the combine, because it somewhat emulates movements that a player might actually make while playing the sport.The drill is made up of three cones that are placed in an L-shape. He used to love the basketball teams of Syracuse - they played a 2-3 zone, that became a 3-3 zone because of the long arms. That's what he wanted - he wanted a long team, and he wanted a big-hand team.
Keep an eye on guys with big hands and long arms, because that length and size is important to the Seahawks scouting department, both on defense, and for receivers/tight ends and offensive linemen. Tom Cable, as you could probably guess, is no different. Thanks to,2014 NFL Draft: 49ers picks, news, rumors, analysis,Trent Baalke, arm length and 2014 NFL Combine measurements,The 49ers are finalizing a one-year deal with Ziggy Ansah,The two sides weren’t able to agree on financial terms previously.After injuries, how have your expectations for the 49ers changed?Losing Nick Bosa is a huge blow, but San Francisco is still good enough to win a championship.Injury updates: Garoppolo has a high-ankle sprain; Bosa ‘most likely’ has a torn ACL.Solomon Thomas is in the "same boat" as Bosa. It's probably most important for wide receivers and running backs, cornerbacks and safeties, because those are pretty much the only players that will ever run 40 yards in a row. "[In 2010, this front office's first Draft], obviously it was a fluid process because it was our first time through as one group - with one grading scale and more of a clear focus on everybody speaking the same language. I have no idea how much stock the Seahawks put into the Wonderlic, but I think too much is made of the scores that players get on this.In general, I think the interview process and the background collecting on a players' work ethic and ability to get coached up (ie, ability to learn) are more important than a timed intelligence test.In addition to all the data we'll be getting on players' physical speed and strength, the baseline height/weights will be disclosed, and the arm length, wingspan, and hand size measurements will be dissected. They can hit an elite 'top speed' and end up running a very good time, but this doesn't mean they can get from zero to sixty in the blink of an eye.
He wanted the biggest and the fastest.
Basically, say you're doing a short shuttle on a football field. We've given the coaches some players to start evaluating that they're going to be interviewing at the Combine. The long arms, the length, really helped, especially as we got into a one-gap scheme in the NFL - because the longer the length, the better the defender could close out the gap. In all, 52 offensive linemen are in Indianapolis to participate.
