NFL considering changes to Combine ?

Best possible thing to do is to just get rid of it. Most of those drills don't mean a thing once they make a team. Seriously the 40 yard dash is one of the most useless things they do

Actually Ragin, when using the "splits" it's a very useful drill/tool in examining a player's abilities...

So when a wide receiver runs a streak...

Or when a running back is or isn't caught behind on a gash...

Or a defensive back runs the length of the field to catch a ball carrier preventing a touchdown...

You haven't seen some semblance of a dash in those games?!?
