Center prospect goes down at combine

I can not believe the wealthy NFL, with 31 other stadiums, countless practice facilities, decided to have the combine at the RCA dome. Voted the worst playing surface by the NFL players. The NFL regularly pays to re-sod grass fields before a playoff game or a super bowl at the cost of over $500k for one game. I can not see how changing the sight of the combine be that difficult or as expensive. I am sure there are facilities that would offer to have it for free. Poor planning.
Shouldn't these guys be timed and measured on grass anyway? I hear the RCA dome is an unrealistically fast surface.
