Senior Bowl Prospects

Anyone interested in this game and if so who has your attention/curiosity? Some of the names I have read about during the bowl games that have my interest are:

North Team:

Jalen Jelks Oregon
Zach Allen BC
John Cominsky Charlston (we met with)
Cam Smith USC
Te'von Coney ND
Germaine Pratt NC ST
Ben Banogu TCU

South Team:

Jimmy Moreland JMU
Rock Ya-sin Temple
Jaylon Ferguson Lou. Tech
Montez Sweat Miss St
Daylon Mack A&M (Shine Games Invite)
Sione Takitaki BYU (Shrine Game Invite)
Ryquell Armstead Temple
Johathan Abram Miss. St
Davis Sills V WV
Hunter Renfrow Clemson (small hands)

These are just some name I have seen or read about obviously I am open to many others. I didn't list any QB's since I do not want us to draft any of them as I feel these are higher prospects and we could spent a high pick there. Guys like Banogu and Ya-sin I have read very good things but have not seen play. Others like Sills and Smith I have seen and feel they are nice later round 3-5 picks if there.

Who has ya'll interest?????

 

Second TE they’ve met with, if I’m not mistaken. Pretty sure they also met with a TE at Shrine game. Seem to be looking for the next blocking TE.

 

Thanks....this stands out to me:

Considered more of an asset as a blocker than a pass catcher,

 

Yes they did but not sure he was a blocking TE:

Kendall Blanton

Billed as a blocking tight end, Blanton actually struggles consistently as an in-line blocker, and has received plenty of opportunity as a receiver, even from a flexed position in the slot. If he tests well, I can see a team taking a late day three flier on developing him to be an adequate depth tight end.

 

I’m definitely interested in possibly adding a TE. I watched some film today on the “other” Iowa tight end, TJ Hockenson. Watched the Penn State game and came away impressed.

Read a write up on him (possibly Daniel Jeremiah’s mock/top 50 list) and it made him sound like the next Heath Miller. I can see it in the film, and I can also see Baltimore nabbing him at 22. He’d fit their offense perfectly.

I’ll have to check out Moreau.

 

I watched TJ in the bowl game and he didn't have a catch in the first half but when he got going watch out. I came away pretty impressed.

 

Baltimore won't draft him, they drafted 2 TEs last year.

I agree its a missing piece of the evaluation process for the early draft eligibles. I don't think they'd ever get their own "bowl" just because I feel the seniors should be rewarded for staying in school. I think the colleges would fight against a junior type bowl etc. So many more are skipping the bowl games as it is. And Nick Bosa leaves the team mid season to "prepare for the draft" when he got injured. I think the scouts will just have to rely on the games the underclassmen did play.

 

Good scouts should have watched, talked to any and every person associated with the possible players/position
who the team has designated as a need or best player available at their selected pick in the draft. This is why (Big Boards)
are created. They should have also watched and interviewed people and close friends of these interested prospects
even in high school. You may find a gem or you may strike out. You can't miss on the 1's and 2's like we have
in recent years. Due the due diligence at least you can't say you didn't try to be successful.

 

They sure don't have a passing threat as of right now, maybe Lamar will prove me wrong.

 

I just got done watching the game and here is my unprofessional take on some of these guys:

North Team Notes:

First off the DL was a monster, 99 Khalen Saunders and 98 Greg Gaines got pressure and showed good power.

DE Charles Omenihu had a nice game lots of hustle, strip sack.

The oline had a couple nice players 70 Chuma Edoga had nice protection going against Sweat and Ferguson. 65 Garrett Bradbury had a nice game and looked to be a potential replacement for pouncey.

S Nasir Adderley had a nice game and an INT

WR Andy Isabella and RB Tony Pollard both had a nice games just not sure he fits our offense

Some guys I didn't care for were CB Kris Boyd Penalties and was very handsy. RB Dexter Williams Had one nice catch but drapped a few easy ones, did have good runs at the end of the game. WR Terry McLaurin lots of drops for a WR, fast as heck. CB #12 Brown not sure who he was but he looked slow and was burnt toast.

South Team Notes

Like the North the DL was good, Dontavius Russell had a nice game and showed very good hustle down field causing a fumble. DT Kingsley Keke made a few plays one he went right down the line and made tackle

CB Lonnie Johnson Jr. big hit no wrap

CB Jimmy Moreland made a heck of a play on a screen, announcers say he is a ball hawk

DE'S Jaylon Ferguson and Montez Sweat had good games Sweat especially was a beast.

Did not like LB Darius West he held and looked slow.

I will be looking up to see what the "experts" have to say about the game.

 

Yeah I thought the exact same thing about Boyd and Saunders........320+ doing all that wow!

 

@Steel_Elvis check out the video of Isabella training. I can't find it to post here but they showed it during the senior bowl.

 

I like Isabella just wasn't sure he fit our needs but damn he is good, I also like Sills and Samuel too. Yeah the football on the bungee that was cool huh?
