I was listening to the Ikard-Lehman podcast, where they were discussing OU’s pro day. 
 
-don’t worry so much about the number of NFL scouts that showed, they said- you need a top QB and Edge rusher to get a bunch of them. 
 
-a lot of comments about players I rarely heard of during the season “maybe they get invited as a camp body, and anything can happen after that”

- after discussing how much they like CB Woodi Washington as a person, they noted that his times would be good for a DT prospect

- a lot of comments about players physically looking better now, than during the season. Is it possible that Schmitty, demonstrably better than Madden as a S&C coach 20 years ago,  is demonstrably worse than Becton, now?

Becton is the best in the business, so yes, he's behind. 

Sorry if I missed any sarcasm. 

No sarcasm. More than anything, amazed that they have fallen so far behind. 
 
S&C is a science, and the very best are lifetime students, constantly trying to learn more. Madden wasn’t, and maybe Schmidt isn’t.

I agree. I think Schmidt has hit a wall. He's 62 and is still doing stuff from the 90s or early aughts, while Becton (I'm not sure) is in his 40s. That's a pretty big gap when you think about it. Becton is constantly evolving, while Schmidt thinks the old ways are better. Like you said, he's more like Madden.
