Mac Jones: Combine results and workout sources

The 2021 table lists 4.72 seconds, a 32 inch vertical and a 116 inch broad jump. That draft cycle used campus workouts instead of the usual in person scouting event. These marks belong in a pro day comparison.

Read the workout in context

The Patriots selected the Alabama passer fifteenth overall. Their scouting report focuses on anticipation and ball placement as well as his campus workout. A running test cannot replace those passing skills when assessing a pocket quarterback.

What the measurements tell you

The college listed for this draft entry is Alabama. The selection was round 1, pick 15, in 2021, by New England Patriots. This identifies the selecting club rather than a present day team.

The reviewed draft record lists 6 ft 2 in and 217 pounds. Draft measurements describe that point in time. A later team roster can list different measurements, so use a dated roster for a current size question.

Using the results fairly

Jumps test power in different directions. The cone and shuttle use different paths, so their times are not interchangeable. Lifting repetitions do not show catching skill or passing accuracy. These tests add a physical snapshot to a draft report; they do not replace film, production or a medical review.

This table follows the source notes rather than choosing the best mark from several events. Where a second report differs, the event note explains the gap. We publish no percentile without a defined comparison group, sample size and calculation.

What to check for this record

A table titled by draft year can include campus results. For this class, calling every entry an Indianapolis performance would misstate the setting. His 116 inch broad jump equals 9 feet 8 inches, while the separate vertical entry measures upward reach rather than distance along the ground.

Questions readers ask

Which draft team selected this player?

New England Patriots selected the Alabama QB in round 1, at pick 15, in 2021. This is draft history, not a current roster claim.

What does an empty test field mean?

It means the reviewed source does not record a result. It does not mean zero, and it does not prove why the athlete did not have a listed mark.

Sources and review method

We checked the linked records for this update. Team and school reports can explain the event. Historical tables compile results and may leave fields empty. We keep that distinction visible and do not claim an affiliation with the source publishers.
