And of course not everyone is going to see it the same way. If you saw the big board of 10 different teams, you'd see no less than 4 different rankings of the QBs, and my money would be on more than that. Some teams have Richardson as the #1 QB, I'm sure. There's probably even someone who has Levis as the #1 QB.

Which would be one of the reasons people would use other tools like the S2 test. It is tough without having the historical data on the testing, but to me the idea behind the tests make sense. And it makes sense to me that a poor score should be a huge red flag. We don’t know for sure that the test is very predictive and we don’t know for sure Stroud scored poorly, but if he’s available to the Colts I think it’s likely due to the testing.
