00:00I feel like every year, so much stress
00:02and so much emphasis is put on the combine,
00:05certain workouts, certain things.
00:06Why does it actually matter?
00:08I mean, the event itself, there's a lot to it,
00:10but what about the combine itself actually means anything?
00:15And what do you think is overblown
00:17about what happens in Indy every year?
00:18Yeah, so what matters?
00:20First and foremost, the medicals.
00:21That's the biggest thing.
00:22It's having the opportunity to get an MRI on 300 players.
00:26That's what matters, really more than anything else.
00:29You're gonna have, gosh,
00:30I think it's six different team doctors now that you do
00:33basically a physical with each one,
00:35the MRIs to get the full medical background.
00:38Our good friend Matt Bowen used to tell a story
00:40about he wrecked his bike when he was 12 years old
00:43and they were like, what's that scar from?
00:44He's like, I wrecked my bike as a kid.
00:46And they're like, okay, flipping through the charts
00:48to see if he was telling the truth or not.
00:50That's the most important part of it.
00:52Secondary to that are the team interviews
00:54because this is the first time
00:56all the prospects are together.
00:58We had EastWest Shrine.
01:00We had Senior Bowl and that's like speed dating.
01:02You get those very short interviews with some teams.
01:05This is the next step.
01:06This is the second date,
01:08where it's a little bit more formal
01:10and you're really trying to get to the heart
01:13of who the player is.
01:14You do stuff a limited amount of time,
01:17but you've done your research.
01:19You're coming in with hard hitting questions at this point.
01:21And then I think the third most important thing
01:23is the actual workouts.
