Nick Marshall was the best of the bunch here, but his results may help him for a different reason. He's also working out with the defensive backs at the combine, and leaping ability is much more valuable there than at the quarterback position. 

Mariota and Hundley also had strong showings, and many feel they will be the number two and three quarterbacks off the board in April. 

Other Notable Performances

  • Jameis Winston, Florida State - 28.5"
  • Anthony Boone, Duke - 26.5"

As mentioned earlier, leaping is not a make or break for the quarterback spot, but Winston finishing second last in the event is still notable. He also finished fourth from the bottom in the 40-yard dash on Saturday. 

Boone was the worst jumper among all signal-callers.
