Team Drills

April 26, 2014 at 08:48PM View BBCode

I have a doubt ... do I have to be confident in team drills?
I.e.: I have a TE who has A+ speed, but the drills tell me that he's slower than anyone in the team (WR, RB & TE).

agility + stamina are taken into account also

im guessing his agility probably isn't all that high

And Strength.
Players with high strength are slower.
TEs usually have high strength, so probably that's why.

I don't have the link, but here's a quote from Chris:

The 40 yard dash times are made up of Speed (top speed), Agility (acceleration), and Execution (reaction time). 100 yard dash times add Stamina to the mix. Strength can be a factor; players with strength over 75 will be bigger players and will be slower than another player with similar skills.

The formulas that are used in the Combine for the dashes and splits are the exact same ones used in the in-game calculations. Note that in-game, players will almost always perform worse than at the Combine due to conditioning and fatigue factors affecting all of the other numbers.

Week to week, your players are re-tested, and on any given run there will be variations in time, so a player may appear to have a small drop even after showing a speed improvement; this is just normal variation. The higher a player's Execution is, the more consistent his week to week results will be.

Comparing this two players (very similar in agility & stamina):

http://football.simdynasty.com/player.jsp?id=2808935

The first has:
10YD 20YD 40YD 100YD
1.77 3.00 4.95 12.09

The second has:
10YD 20YD 40YD 100YD
1.62 2.75 4.68 12.64

For me it's unbelieveble the gap.

The first guy has A- strength.
The second one has C.

Remember that the game doesn't have a "Weigth" attribute. In here, Weight is tied to Strength.
Think of a player with red letter strength as a lineman and a player with green letter strength looks like a typical WR.
Think of "Speed" as his ability/strength to move his legs fast.

They both have the strength in their legs to move them equally fast (similar "Speed" skill), but the weight and size of their bodies makes one of them to run a lot faster than the other guy.

Either way, both of them are rather slow, considering their slow agility.
