And by "clearly" I mean about as "clearly" as the alleged shoulder in play #1.
In neither play is the alleged movement really obvious. That's why I think they're both 50/50 types of plays.
In the end, both plays #1 and #3 are going to be passed on and called - in both cases I'm willing to bet peoples' opinions are going to be split.

Assume they both did as you describe. They're still not the same.
The screener in #1 was shifting it out to the side to create contact that may not have otherwise occurred...the shoulder in combination with him sticking the leg out AND not giving time/distance, at a iminimum, makes the contact worse than it would have been and maybe even created contact that shouldn't have been.
In #3, that defender was going to run into that screen no matter what. His teammates needed to alert him to that screen. What little shift the screener may have made didn't really change what was going to happen.
Clearly, neither was called in the videos. I just think that #1 is a must get and #3 is marginal.
