I've never been much for paying attention to the workout numbers ... can I get a translator for these numbers?

Dude is decently strong.

For an interior DL - the squat and vert are very nice numbers and indicate very good lower body explosion. I think for young players (HS & CFB) generally vert is a very good metric as it's pure lower body explosion and power whereas 40 could be a lot about sprinter form that isn't always football relevant. Over 30" VJ is good for lineman and over 35" is good for everyone else in my opinion.

His hang clean is solid that's more total body strength and athleticism, though I think you'd like his max bench to be more in the 450 range. 400 is a little light, especially for a starting caliber 1-tech or 3-tech like Qualls.

Didn't Don James place the biggest emphasis on a player's vertical?

It was also good to see no help on the bench. It means the numbers are legit. Having a spotter even put a finger on the bar makes it substantially easier. That's how everyone cheated when I was in high school.
