Top three ranked QBs velocity at the combine via the radar

[sbark]

Can a long out throw to the sidelines with a 12 arc........have more velocity than a ball throw on rope with only a 5' arc, to the same spot? Because that is what we saw on combine footage...........must be a optical illusion of kinematics..........

To figure out the speed of the football we can use the formula for speed which is: v = d/t (where 'v' represents the speed/velocity, 'd' represents the distance and 't' represents the time taken). So in this example v = 18.288m/1.25s, v = 14.6304m/s or if we use significant digits the answer would be 14.6m/s or 52.6km/hr. If we increase the distance to a hail mary which could be 50 yards (45.72 metres) the time taken will also increase, but since the path of the football will have a projectile motion the arc will also increase. The time taken for the football to reach the wide receiver is 2.75 seconds. The speed is: v = d/t, v = 45.72m/2.75s, the speed is v = 16.6255m/s and if we use significant digits, the answer would be 16.6m/s or 59.8km/hr. Speed is scalar because it is just a measurement. Velocity is vector so it is the same as speed except it has a direction.

What we need to know, is at those velocity rates, presuming they are at the max of each prospective player.........who maintaines accuracy while creating speed and velocity.

No need to get all scientific.. Wentz can throw the ball much harder than Goff.

heck........just cause' I copy and pasted it........didn't mean I understand it.........

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

It is much harder for wentz to throw a football properly than goff

 

[jnday]

Damn now Wentz lovers will have to go back to the chalkboard on why their messiah is the best

I don't think 1-2 mph is going to change any minds at all . It would be silly if it did.

 

[RS12]

I don't think 1-2 mph is going to change any minds at all . It would be silly if it did.

Just like saying 1-2 mph is throwing it much harderr than someone else.

 

[RS12]

Memphis QB Paxton Lynch recorded a ball velocity of 59 mph at the NFL Combine, according to Dan Shonka.

We would not put too much into this, especially with Jared Goff checking in at 58 mph and Carson Wentz at 57. These "arm strength" measurements could be used as thresholds, like hand size and arm length at other positions. The standout number might be Connor Cook's 50 mph.

 

[Stash]

What was Kellen Moore's velocity?

The gun didn't register anything.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

Dang it.....Now Cleveland is going to take Goff instead of Wentz....Velocity > Big hands.

In all seriousness, if all this physicality stuff is so important, I don't know why Lynch keeps falling down the charts. Might be the most physically supreme prospect there's ever been.

 

[tyke1doe]

Not to my face, you won't.

You are on a pre-draft roll.

 

[Manwiththeplan]

What was Kellen Moore's velocity?

about the same as a tumble weed

 

[NorthwestDallas40]

So was Dan McGwire.

 

[School]

Even before this, it was acknowledged by some that Goff has a stronger arm than Wentz.

Duck.35

I'm over cc. No thanks

 

[DC Cowboy]

Not to my face, you won't.

LOL

 

[DFWJC]

Did they have a drill where they asked QBs to throw the ball the absolute hardest that they can?

 

[Broges74]

Whoops. I started another thread about this. Goff's velocity surprises me and puts in at the top of my list on QBs.

 

[HeavyBarrel]

I missed the drill, are they putting a JUGS on the player or doing math?

 

[Manwiththeplan]

Did they have a drill where they asked QBs to throw the ball the absolute hardest that they can?

no, but given the accuracy he displayed, as well as past numbers by other QBs (60 is the highest recorded and only a few 59s) then Goff's 58 is very impressive.
