Combine QB measurements have been released.

How do they measure their hands by the way? Do you spread them and go pinky to thumb?
I believe you extend your thumb out and go pinky to thumb. Don't think they measure length wise but not entirely sure.

Now that we know Bridgewater is no longer 195 lbs soaking wet, in fact he is about where I had hoped he would be, I want TB if we go QB at 4. If not then Watkins at 4 and Carr at 30 whatever.

How about this Logan Thomas kid? I really do not follow college until the draft.

He is pretty terrible and will likely end up an UDFA.

Why is Watkins guaranteed to have an immediate impact moreso than any other player?
I never said that he would have an immediate impact moreso than any other player. I simply stated that that he will be an immediate impact; I wasn't comparing him to anyone else. Of the immediate impact players (I'll leave you to define that list for us) he is the one that I prefer and hope that the Browns draft - simply because having a legitimate 2nd option at WR to pair with Josh Gordon will improve the passing game. In addition, Watkins will serve as insurance if chance convinces Gordon to spark one up.

I don't think there is a list of immediate impact players.
One won't be able to be compiled until the end of the season.

Logan Thomas did not improve at all over the last few years. He looked like a potential high pick as a Soph but never progressed. He is a huge dude with an arm, but lacks in accuracy and decision making. He is more mobile than he looks to. He ended up getting hurt last year. If any team drafted him it would be in a very late round as a project QB

I have bigger hands than Teddy... but fuck. Looking at the OL measurements and some other QB hand measurements... those are fucking huge.

Yes, that's right. From tip of the thumb to tip of the pinky.
Oddly enough, that quarter of an inch can make a big difference. Example: as noted above, my left hand has a 1/4" spread longer than my right hand. I have no problem palming a basketball with my left hand, but I have a lot of difficulty palming one with my right hand.

OK, riddle me this: I am looking on the site giving the 40 times for WRs, and they show "Official Time" and "Unofficial Time". And in some cases these times are at wide variance.
Example: Sammy Watkins was at 4.34 unofficial, but 4.43 official. Janis was 4.30 unofficial but 4.42 official.
John Brown of Pittsburg St. (Kan), Brandin Cook of Oregon St., and Janis of Saginaw Valley St. had the lowest "Unofficial times" at 4.30 each.
But under official time Brown was at 4.33, Cook 4.34, and Janis at 4.42.
So? What's up with that? Which do you go by?
-
I think unofficial is a guy with a stopwatch, official is laser measured, right?

Note on WRs....where this stat may be most important:
Best vertical leap: Tevin Reese, Baylor 44"
Worst: Cody Huffman: 27.5
A number of WRs did not participate
Other Notables:
Watkins 34"
Alan Robinson 39"
Jordan Matthews 35.5
Marqise Lee 38
