2015 NFL Combine: Field Drills Recap – Quarterbacks
By Charlie Campbell –
@draftcampbell
For a point of reference, the average of quarterbacks in 2013 in the 40-yard
dash was 4.86. Last year the average was 4.86. The 40-yard
dash isn’t a critical test for quarterbacks.
Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston had some
slower-than-expected 40 times of 4.97 and 4.99, but those
aren’t relevant to why Winston is the top-rated quarterback
and favorite to be the first-overall pick. In the field
drills, Winston made some beautiful throws with touch and
accuracy. It was an impressive display with his footwork
and timing.
Winston ripped off a series of NFL throws and looked like a
good NFL starter, taking part in the Combine. NFL teams
won’t care about his 40 time, and will be more focused on
how great he threw the ball.
Everybody knows that Oregon quarterback Marcus
Mariota is a great athlete, but he put a number to it at
the Combine. In the 40, Mariota’s official time was
4.52, and that was the best among the quarterbacks. It
wasn’t surprising that he ran fast, and obviously he is
plenty quick enough to be a running threat.
More importantly for the Ducks point-producer, Mariota made
some nice throws in the field work. He threw the ball
accurately with touch and showed that he is developing his
feet for the next level after playing in a college shotgun
offense. Just like Winston, Mariota was impressive at the
Combine and was wise to take advantage of the opportunity
to throw.
UCLA quarterback Brett Hundley (6-3, 226) had a
strong Combine. Hundley is a good athlete, so it wasn’t
surprising. He ran well with 4.63 time in the 40 and showed
off his strong arm in the field drills. Hundley’s issues
are in working as a pocket passer and his field vision
while working through his progressions. Thus, the Combine
isn’t designed for Hundley to address those concerns.
Baylor quarterback Bryce Petty had a good day
throwing the ball. He showed some nice feet and mechanics
with a quality arm. Petty (6-3, 230) ran the 40 in 4.87
seconds, but he obviously has a running element to his game
coming from the Bears offense.
South Alabama quarterback Brandon Bridge (6-4, 229)
showed that he can spin the football. Bridge has a strong
arm and looked athletic with a quality 40 time at 4.72. On
the third day of the draft, Bridge could be a developmental
pick and used the Combine to help get himself consideration
for a late-round pick.
Colorado State quarterback Garrett Grayson did not
participate in the Combine workout because of an injury.
