NFL combine numbers matter for pass rushers
Before the 2016 draft, I stumbled upon Justis Mosqueda's Force Players metric. He has his specific formula that heavily involved utilizing the combine productions to identify who would be Force players in the 2016 NFL draft. In the first round, there was only one Force Player - Shaq Lawson. There would be a mid-tier Force player in Jonathan Bullard. That is it.
I decided to try out a more simplified version of finding possible Force players in an article called "Is the Force on our Side?" It is a simplified version of discovering Force players because I do not have Mosqueda's specific formula. Force players are broken down into two types of edge rushers, power and bendy.
