this vid was great, It showed a clip of measure a One are reach which many people have told me the NFL does not use and that all the vertical jump #'s from the combine should be lowered 2inches or so

what do you guys think?

well for the history of the nfl combine it's been double arm reach, they might have changed it recently (only the last 1-2 years).

I will try to find the # over the years..there should be an avg drop of 2 inches in the last 2years vs earlier years
