I'm also dumbfounded how everyone missed on him. Even despite the error in recording his measurables, film *had* to have shown *something* of his top notch skills
What is National and Blesto Scouting Services?
Have you ever wondered how the NFL scouts are able to go to every NCAA school and watch film? Well they cannot do it all alone, so many NFL teams hire scouting services to assist them with their process. There are two major scouting services that NFL teams use including National and Blesto.
There are twelve teams in BLESTO (ATL, BUF, CHI, CLE, DAL, DET, HOU, JAC, MIA, MIN, NYG, PIT).
There are fifteen subscribers to the National (AZ, CAR, CIN, DEN, GB, KC, NO, NYJ, PHI, STL, SD, SF, SEA, TB, TEN). National Scouting also is the logistical organizer of record for the event in Indianapolis.
Five teams out of the thirty-two NFL teams are unaffiliated with either scouting combine organization: Baltimore Ravens, Indianapolis Colts, New England Patriots, Oakland Raiders and Washington Redskins.

I'm guessing that neither service scouted division two West Alabama - but the Patriots did take the time to do so.
