It doesn’t help that they’ve ran some combines mid week for kids that are still playing footy, if you have a niggle that’s going to hinder your results why would you test. Usually the normal combine kids at worst have 2 free weeks (most longer) to put in a block of work to get ready for it.I like what they've done in previous years to mitigate this (it's obviously problematic this year doing it) in that they have run a day closer to the draft for those who opted not to test, to re-test.
Unless you have a serious injury, if you miss both tests, then recruiters will put some serious question marks on you.
