BetterCallSaul Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 The reciprocal thread. What players had terrible combines after being high rated recruits and ended up being bad? Jarvis Jones Maurice Clarett That really fat DT from Alabama with tittiez that ran without a shirt and embarrassed himself...like 10+ years ago? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldfishwars Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Jachai Polite had one of the worst combines of all time, was an all-time bad interviewer, talked a bunch of bs and then promptly fell out of the league. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrence Cody. There was also that OG that played for the Bengals that was super sloppy. He wasn't a terrible player in the league, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldfishwars Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Isaac Nauta would be a good one. People loved that dude until he absolutely bombed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWil23 Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Reuben Foster. Yeah he was still a first but he dropped from a Top 5 lock to almost out of the first altogether. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PossibleCabbage Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 On 2/25/2023 at 6:07 PM, Scoundrel said: It was at his pro day not the combine Pro Day also prevents me from pointing out that Jarvis Jones was a really good college player that analytics pointed to "not being a very good pass rusher at the NFL level" purely from testing numbers. Likewise some say that Shane Ray is still running that 3-cone drill at his pro day. A lot of the guys who know they're a better football player than athlete have dodged the combine.

kgarrett12486 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Damontre Moore - went from being projected as a top 10-15 pick to being drafted in the 3rd due to his combine numbers. Never really panned out in the league. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never really panned out in the league. He was also a big time dummy. His most memorable plays with the Giants were stupid penalties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
