Here is one of the best examples of amazing "measurables" gone wrong.

No, not really. Its a horrible example. Mandarich was a player of substance. He was arguably the greatest offensive tackle in college football history. He was a product of steroids, not measureables.

Guys who are measureables gone wrong are guys like Darrius Heyward-Bey (speed), Kyle Boller (speed, passing from knees), Dan McGwire (height), JaMarcus Russell (arm and speed), etc. These guys were never all that great in college, but they had one or two notable physical attributes.

LOLWUT?

I'd have gone with arm and size for Russell, his speed was above average for a guy his size but he wasn't running away from anyone. Another measureables guy was Ryan Leaf of course, for the arm strength and size.
 
Maybe I should have said "mobility" instead of speed. But "mobility" isn't really a measureable.

Found this to be funny

Yeah I remember reading that article then. Russell was a very good crunch time QB but most of the comebacks he led at LSU were needed because he dug us in the hole in the first place.

He's only good when he's running a 2 minute drill and just flying by the seat of his pants. It seemed like he couldn't get motivated at LSU until we absolutely needed a score.
