00:00
I feel like every year, so much stress
00:02
and so much emphasis is put on the combine,
00:05
certain workouts, certain things.
00:06
Why does it actually matter?
00:08
I mean, the event itself, there's a lot to it,
00:10
but what about the combine itself actually means anything?
00:15
And what do you think is overblown
00:17
about what happens in Indy every year?
00:18
Yeah, so what matters?
00:20
First and foremost, the medicals.
00:21
That's the biggest thing.
00:22
It's having the opportunity to get an MRI on 300 players.
00:26
That's what matters, really more than anything else.
00:29
You're gonna have, gosh,
00:30
I think it's six different team doctors now that you do
00:33
basically a physical with each one,
00:35
the MRIs to get the full medical background.
00:38
Our good friend Matt Bowen used to tell a story
00:40
about he wrecked his bike when he was 12 years old
00:43
and they were like, what's that scar from?
00:44
He's like, I wrecked my bike as a kid.
00:46
And they're like, okay, flipping through the charts
00:48
to see if he was telling the truth or not.
00:50
That's the most important part of it.
00:52
Secondary to that are the team interviews
00:54
because this is the first time
00:56
all the prospects are together.
00:58
We had EastWest Shrine.
01:00
We had Senior Bowl and that's like speed dating.
01:02
You get those very short interviews with some teams.
01:05
This is the next step.
01:06
This is the second date,
01:08
where it's a little bit more formal
01:10
and you're really trying to get to the heart
01:13
of who the player is.
01:14
You do stuff a limited amount of time,
01:17
but you've done your research.
01:19
You're coming in with hard hitting questions at this point.
01:21
And then I think the third most important thing
01:23
is the actual workouts.
