*apparently false scores leaked* STROUD SCORES 18% ON S2 TEST (or maybe not)

I feel like we really need more context for these numbers. Like the scores for several current and past QBs in the NFL. 

PFF has an hour long podcast with one of the creators of the S2 on their podcast. You’ll get plenty of info regarding this if you want it along with the types of tests they you (7 in the S2) and how it translates on the field (each test within the S2 is testing different traits)

the NFL releases medical records every week as part of the competition fairness policy. How is this any different? 

It releases general injuries that directly impact the following game, thats a bit different than medical records.

The score does line up a little with the film and what some of the PFF guys really have been hammering about him under pressure.
Pressure situations=needs faster reaction and read times.  Which the scores evaluate.  And that’s something Stroud was pretty bad at.

 

I wouldn’t take him off the board as a top 10 team at all.  Because he has a bunch of other good traits to be a franchise guy.  

Very fair point. Unfortunately DC’s know this and are going to bring pressure every play against him it’s a huge red flag

Which also has a lot to do with gambling, but nobody in the NFL would want to admit that.

(there's probably a discussion to be had about the privacy of medical information vs the importance of accurate gambling lines) 😄

and this was a general test score... from a private company who finds ways to quantify reaction skills/timing. 

Comparing S2 to personal medical records.... its a stretch. They took that test knowing the results would be shared.

Not at the players expense making him look like an embarrassment especially since this happened just about a week from the draft..

    • While we're talking a fresh prospect that I happen to be a fan of, might as well get on a soapbox: Point 1 - He is not undersized by any means, his length is far above the mean His wingspan is in like the 85th percentile. An interesting note - his wingspan is 5 inches over Khalil Mack, 2 inches over Will Anderson's.  Only 1/2 inch away from the no-production yet size hyped 6'5 267 Shemar Stewart's. For comp - Ez's is around 83", arm length 34".  For NFL comp, the mean for wingspan is 80" and arms 33.5" at for starting EDGE defenders.  So it's not just my isolated comparisons. Point 2 - He isn't just a flashy "pass rush specialist" His film (and testing) shows elite quickness, hand work, and ability to play with the heads of OTs that normal prospects don't grasp. (see my prior post) Testing wise, one of the fastest 3-cones and short shuttles for an edge in years.  Fastest this year for both -- and those two drills are the ones teams look at for pass rushers, usually very indicative of success.  His quickness is off the charts. He's a guy that played well, showed well to those casually watching and those film-studying.  Then he goes out and tests well to back it up.  Apparently interviews super well.  So, I think it's all about his capacity/potential as a run defender.  That's really what it comes down to.  Can he be a 3-down guy or is he a specialist?  I see a 3-downer, his run defense is better than given credit for. A breakdown Ez vs. the NFL mean Arm Length: 34" vs. 33.5" (over) Wingspan: 83" vs. 80" (over) 3-Cone: 6.94 sec vs. 7.23 (WELL over, 95 percentile) Short Shuttle: 4.19 vs. 4.424 (over) Height: 6'2 1/2 vs. 6'3 (slight under) People look at the height a smidge under 6'3 and take that without considering the rest.   I think with Ez, it all comes down to what teams think his run defense upside is.  All it takes is one team - if they think he can become more that a passing down guy, then he could go high.  But if guys like Nik Bonitto and Haason Reddick can turn into these all-arounders, I don't see why this kid can't either who has higher pedigree and better measurables. Now, I prefer Graham, Walker inside, Will Johnson, Barron, and some others over him, but once we're in this tier outside of the top guys, I find the argument way more compelling for Ez over a Mykel Williams or Shemar Stewart.    
    • Well if we’re bringing this guy with character issues in for a visit why not consider Mike Green at 8!?
