| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of Purple Insider, presented by Fanduel, Matthew Collar here, and Chrisrapasso, the official draft analyst of Purple Insider, |
| 0:23.1 | back from the NFL Combine. |
| 0:25.6 | We've got all the workouts taken care of now in the books. |
| 0:29.5 | We've got actual numbers. |
| 0:30.6 | We've got still issues with how long people's arms are, Chris. |
| 0:36.5 | And also a new trend has emerged at the NFL |
| 0:40.6 | combine, where if I'm not good at the three cone, I just don't do the three cone. And then |

| 1:34.6 | have some change of direction data from the tracking, but it's not anything that's on next gen, |
| 1:40.4 | even in the NFL. And I feel like I'm going to say back in the day on this show, |
| 1:45.5 | but it's been like four or five years now, that I would always, and we would always discuss |
| 1:50.2 | three cone and that that is not like the ultimate indicator of athleticism, but being a linear |
