All Missouri players have now finished their testing at the NFL Combine.

So let’s go through and recap some of the measurements and results from the week.

Brady Cook

First up, the quarterback who impressed a lot of people with his athleticism.

The Tiger signal caller measured in a 6-foot-2, 214 pounds with a 32-1/2 inch arm length and a 9-1/4 inch hand length.

He was one of three quarterbacks to run the 40-yard dash, clocking in at 4.59 for the top time, beating Louisville’s Tyler Shough (4.63) and MemphisSeth Henigan (4.76)

Cook also topped the vertical jump for quarterbacks at 37 inches, beating Shough (32 inches), Henigan (31.5 inches) and Ohio State’s Will Howard (31.5 inches).

Those four also did the broad jump with Cook leading the way at 10-8, while Shough jumped 9-9, Henigan jumped 9-6 and Howard leapt 9-4.

Cook was one of three quarterbacks in the three-cone drill, stopping the timer at 7.01 seconds compared to Howard’s 7.13 and Henigan’s 7.34.

The same three ran the shuttle, with Cook leading the way at 4.17 seconds in front of Howard at 4.33 and Henigan at 4.44.

No quarterback bench pressed.

Here’s a view of Cook doing some passing work that turned out pretty impressive for a lot of analysts.

Membou measured at 6-4, 332 pounds with a 33-1/2 inch arm and a 9-3/4 inch hand. Those measurements were great to see for the tackle who people had talked about as a guard prospect.
