Buffalo Bills: How important is NFL Combine to Brandon Beane?

Related Topics: Brandon Beane, Buffalo Bills, Combine

Brandon Beane now has three drafts under his belt as general manager for the Buffalo Bills and this gives a good sample size of what he values as general manager. The question is how much does Beane value performing at the NFL Combine over game film or other aspects of the draft process.

In the following slides are all the players drafted by Beane, broken into tiers determined by the combine testing percentile they were in by their positional group of their draft year. I took a percentile for each player from every drill they competed in at the combine (40 yard dash, short-shuttle, etc…) and took the average of each players percentile throughout all the drills.
