Analytic guys have examined what traits of offensive lineman have proved to be the best predictors of future success in the NFL and he said the 2 components that stood out were length and the 40 yard dash. He admitted he couldn’t explain why the 40 was a good predictor but it’s something that the analytic guys view as pretty important.

He also raved about Alt’s athletic ability and said in a different draft he probably would be a top 3 pick.
