But he does Dam, he needs to know what he and the rest of the line is doing every play. He doesn't have to put a WR in position or send a TE in motion, but an offensive line needs to know their part and their line-mate's part. Who is pulling, who has gap responsibility, where to apply help. If he is a dumbass, that makes things a lot harder, especially in an uptempo offense with no huddle.
His level of technique is a wholly different situation, and that is mostly up to them to work on in the off season since weekly practice is essentially gameplan installment at this point.
Now there can be a lot of different reason for his low score: he blew it off, he has a learning disability, some people just don't test well. But you go into that during the interview and followup interviews after the combine.
