Now, is Etling explosive? No. But he had a better 40 time, vertical, and broad jump, and was only slightly behind on the shuttle and 3-cone. Not sure what formula you would create that would have Mayfield ahead.
Mayfield can move on a football field. He gets himself in position to move plays. Etling is no where to that nimble in the pocket.
Mayfield sacked 26 times in 433 passing attempts
Etling sacked 30 times in 300 passing attempts.
Of course some of it is the difference in the offenses, but not nearly all of it. Mayfield is very elusive in the pocket and in the open field.
