Cam Erving had 30 on the BP, Cann had 26. For comparison, Cameron Fleming had 26 last year.
Scherff a little disappointing at 23.
Most impressive interview from day one? #Minnesota TE Maxx Williams. Owned the room. Confident. Only 20 years old. Very, very impressive kid
FWIW, a comparison of the OL bench press results between the past 3 draft classes:

Ty Sambraillo - 23 (33" arms)
Cedric Obguehi - 23 (35 7/8" arms)

Excellent post. Scherff, Clemmings and Collins all seemed a little low, but then so were Zack Martin, Bitonio and Frederick so I'm fine with those numbers. And anyway, they don't play weak.
Weight and arm length don't correlate that much with the bench press as one would think. Tyron Smith was an undersized OT who played at under 300# for his college career. He bulked up to 307# for the combine, and had 36 3/8" gorilla arms, but still put up 29 reps.
I don't think teams put a ton of stock in the bench press. A good result is impressive, but a bad result doesn't necessarily mean much.
Saw a video with Ali Marpet in which he says he'll be top 5 in most categories. If he hits near those Bitonio numbers, he becomes very interesting.
