Nope, sorry for the misunderstanding. I didn't say they all were doing something wrong. I just questioned how much research other teams do. In other words, just how deep they go investigating potential draft picks.
I've never read any stories about NFL teams starting out a draft search with 2000 names like the Chiefs did last year.
As I stated in another reply, there was the story about McCluster where his 40 time was off a bit from where the 'analysts' thought it should be, and they were proclaiming he would drop in the draft as a result. Pioli stated he thought he played faster than that, so when they investigated they found he was coming off of a small injury which slowed him down. Stuff like that is what I was talking about. Do they investigate the guys character, his heart, or just use a spreadsheet to compare combine measurables?
