Please god no. Bust-a-reeno.
Not surprising, teams meet with MANY players....and never draft them. And then draft players they've never met.
Its part of the due diligence process. Doesn't mean anything. Or they might be interested. Its all guesswork until Draft day.

exactly, pretty much anything coming from the combine is a non story. who meets with who, who ran fast, who didnt, not much to be gleaned from the combine for the fans.

Yep. And then the Pro Days happen, which is even more stupid. What music was played when Will Levis was throwing? CJ Stroud was 45/45 throwing to wide open guys and no pass rush, holy shit!! Anthony Richardson threw the ball 65 yards from his knees! And some younger fans get off HARD on that shit.
Every team should do whatever it takes to fully understand every QB that is going to get drafted. I get that teams need to prioritize meetings and resources, but QB is so important that you really need to do your due diligence.

If for no other reason than scouting them for when they become their opponents.

Never really understood the reason behind Pro Days. Just seems redundant to the combine.

the recruit and the school get to highlight the things that the recruit does well, and in a controlled environment that the player is typically comfortable with.

This. and i will add that this guy and Hooker will both go in the first. Too many tools to drop.
