Virginia Tech S Terrell Edmunds Had The Top Broad Jump At The 2018 Combine

by Chase Stuart on April 25, 2018

in Draft

The broad jump isn’t the sexiest of drills, but it is another good way to measure a player’s all-around athletic ability. As a rule of thumb, the drill is biased in favor of lighter players (who can jump farther since they weigh less), but it’s also biased towards taller players, who have longer legs. Therefore, to adjust for weight and height, we use the following formula:

Broad Jump = 84.14 + 1.0766 * Height (Inches) – 0.1940 * Weight (Pounds)

Virginia Tech linebacker Tremaine Edmunds is expected to be a high first round pick, but his brother Terrell — a safety with the Hokies — was the combine champion at this event. Standing 6’2, 220 pounds, Edmunds has prototypical safety size and is an elite athlete. He had the 5th-best weight adjusted vertical, as he jumped a combine-high 41.5 inches. In the broad jump, he would be expected to leap 121.1 inches based on his height and weight; in reality, he jumped 134 inches, or 12.9 inches above expectation. That was the best mark at the 2018 combine.

As for Barkley, he did not participate in the broad jump, the 3-cone drill, or the 60-yard shuttle.
