To boot, the combine can cost a player MILLIONS on draft day for a poor showing (Jeremy Maclin). Scouts aren't stupid and have hours or tape to watch to determine draft status. Sanchez will be a top 5 pick, and Maclin's injury (pulled hammy?) might have dropped him from a top 10 pick to the late teens.
I don't follow your logic. If a poor showing won't affect Sanchez because of all the tape on him, then why would a poor showing affect Maclin? Isn't there more tape of Maclin anyways?

40 times mean everything to WR's and DB's he also came in shorter than his listed height.

He'll run again though.

Most teams are smart enough to realize the strongest arm isn't the best way to evaluate who you should make your QB.

True enough, but most scouts saw that Maclin was having trouble today with his leg and I think they're smart enough to see his game speed on tape anyways. Some guys seem to have better game speed.

Mecca answered part of your question. But, it's hard yo judge a QB who's throwing to WR's that he has basically zero chemistry with. Trint Green looked like shit his first season in KC. Then look what happened after he developed chemistry with his WR's. Today Sanchez looked like shit with far less time to develope chemistry than Trint did. But, they have multiple hours of actual game tape to watch to determine how he throws in game situations and different scenarios.

Maclin, who I LIKE, had a poor showing today likely due to a pulled hammy or a lingering injury. Break away speed is crutial in WR's if you're going to be a top pick, and teams are going to be nervous to give a guy tens of millions in guaranteed money to a guy who's going to sit out due to nagging injuries.
