Been a low 4.4 40 guy for awhile. No surprise there.
Major improvement in the shuttle, would have been top6 at opening last year. I have watched him play a few times the last two years and thought he was kind of slow/stiff laterally, but that time is a sign he's been putting in work.
It's a Nike standardized athlete rating that takes into account 40, shuttle, vert, and medicine ball throw...all electronically timed and normalized by height/weight.
I think it's a Sparq rating. I'm not exactly sure how it's calculated, but it tests a player's 40, shuttle, VJ, broad jump, and maybe a few other tests than comes up with a score. Height and weight is calculated somewhere in there as well. Sorry for the shitty explanation.
All I know is that the Seahawks LOVE Sparq, their drafts are often dictated by Sparq scores as they feel it's a great indicator for athleticism. It doesn't make much sense to me otherwise, but it seems to work in figuring out overall athleticism.

Is it that FREAKING hard to put this on a scale that has intuitive meaning?!?! Christ.

Apparently above 130 is really good.
The scale goes from 0 to 100.
McGrew got a 132.
That should tell you how good he is.
How does the scale go to 100 but you can score higher?

Either way, it'll be interesting.
When Ross gets back from his redshirt year and McFlew gets here in 2017 will those combine to be worth 4 wins...?

Here were the scores last year: http://www.sbnation.com/college-football-recruiting/2014/7/8/5881543/2014-sparq-combine-results-the-opening
That score would have been 9th nationally across all positions at the opening last year. Impressive.
Either way, McGrew is fast.
