But guys like that just aren't easy to spot. It's so difficult to understand how baseline athleticism will translate to coverage ability at the next level. Why? Hell if I know; seems like it should be pretty easy.
But for whatever reason, someone like Ragland can put up virtually identical testing numbers to someone like Schobert and Schobert's just better in space.
I mean look at these figures:
40 times: 4.76 vs. 4.72 (edge Ragland)
10 yard split: 1.62 vs. 1.65 (edge Schobert)
20 yard shuttle: 4.3 vs. 4.28 (Edge Ragland)
Broad Jump (big for SPARQ scores; considered a strong proxy for explosion): 111 vs 116 (edge Ragland)
Both 6'1'', Ragland 247 vs. 244 for Schobert.
And giving anyone an edge anywhere is academic; there's no discernible difference anywhere; hundreths of a second here and there. Both came out of the 2016 draft class. There virtually indistinguishable as prospects.
Someone explain to me why Schobert is so much better in space? I sure as hell can't figure it out and you can't exactly glean 'savvy' at the college level.

We’ve had problems drafting LBs for years now. What’s the last good one....DJ?
