People who completely change their minds based on combine numbers obviously didn't do their homework in the first place.
Had Geno gone out and ran a 4.9, and looked terrible in the drills, I'd still be wanting him #1. Because what I saw on the game tape is what matters.
The only time the combine numbers should come into play is if a scout has the same grade on 2 different players. He will then use the combine numbers as the edge factor for said player.

I've been telling everyone who would listen (off this site) that Geno is the top guy based on his FILM and ability, but that the experts wouldn't start moving him up until AFTER he ran a 4.6 and showed as the best passer with the best combination of arm strength and accuracy at the combine.
Here it comes. Kiper will follow McShay shortly. So it will kill the favored true fan argument of "You can't take Geno because he's a REACH! The experts don't even have him projected in round 1!!!!"
