I dont know where ive been but I did not see that you actually created a weighted formula until I did a search for Ifedi's TEF score.

Im only writing because ive been sitting on my own formula for about two weeks, only because I didnt want step on your toes on all the great work you were doing with TEF.

Like yours my formula takes in account weight equalizers but also bench equilizer.

For instance if someone did 27 reps with 32 inch arm length, the math would be:

27 ×.32 = 8.64

In comparison, Ifedi did 24 reps with 36 inch arm length.

24 ×.36 = 8.64

So, case in point, one can easily see the equalization between some who did 27 reps with 32 in arms as opposed to only 24 reps with 36 in arms.

Another thing... I took the Broad Jump and just put it into inches and added it to the vert.

For example Ifredi would be 109 + 32.5 = 141.5.

As with the arm length I just converted weight into decimals.

Germain Ifedi's 324 =.324.

Then to find weighted jump score you just multiply the weight.

Ifedi's is 45.846.

Stand alone weighted Broad Jump score is 35.316.

As you can see that by converting the Broad Jump into inches that it automatically becomes the most significant part of the number. Representing about 60-65% of explosion formula.

So, altogether Ifredi scored 54.486. Round to nearest hundredths = 54.49.


Spriggs in this formula scored 54.98.

.49 percent difference or about half a deviation.

52 became the prototype number, formulated by TEF requirements of 27 bench reps, 9ft Broad, 31 inch vert of a prospect weighing 310 with 33 inch arm. It formulated to an exact 52.

I chose 310 because I feel like that is about the average weight of linemen coming out between 290-330. So, 310. 33 in arms is self explanatory.

Against the Trench Explosive Protoype:

Spriggs, 301lbs, 34 1/8 in AL: +2.98
Ifedi, 324 lbs, 36 in AL: +2.49
McGovern, 306 lbs, 33 7/8 in AL: +2.30

I feel like the gap got smaller between Spriggs and Ifedi, and in my formula Ifedi actually scored better than McGovern (using draft scouts weights).

Hopefully, this isnt terribly confusing... Thought I just put it out there since Ive been sitting on it for two weeks and just now found out you tweeked your TEF formula to factor in weight discrepancies.
