Senior Bowl Thread
 
Weigh ins are in.

QBs largely suck, size-wise. Logan Thomas looks like a Greek god, though.

Tajh Boyd, 6'0", 222, 9 3/8" hand
Derek Carr, 6'2", 215, 9 1/8" hand
Aaron Murray, 6'0", 201, 9 1/8" hand
Logan Thomas, 6'5", 250 lbs, 10 3/4" hand

There were a few other guys as well, but they were all short tiny guys like Boyd, Carr, and Murray.

Sheesh. No physicality in the QBs this year.

Love watching the practices, don't care too much about the game itself.

Direckshun 01-20-2014 04:57 PM

Some WRs that have drawn attention here:

Jared Abbrederis, Wisconsin: 6'0", 189, 9 5/8"
Robert Herron, Wyoming: 5'8", 193, 9 5/8"
Jordan Matthews, Vanderbilt: 6'2", 209 lbs, 10 1/2"
Jalen Saunders, Oklahoma: 5'8", 164 lbs!!!, 8 3/4"

Wow, Saunder is super short.

Aaron Colvin, CB from OU, might be an interesting guy there. Hearing he's having a good week.

Utah's Keith McGill, CB, is a guy to keep an eye on during the Senior Bowl. He was a first team Juco All-American who, because of injuries, only really saw playing time this past season. Played at safety at the Juco level, and played five games there in 2011 before injury and was moved to CB this past season.

He was a real ballhawk in junior college with 11 interceptions in two years. Name to the Pac12 Honorable Mention team this past season.

He purportedly runs a 4.35 40 at 6'3", 205 lbs.

He weighed/measured in at the Senior Bowl at 6'3" even and 214 lbs. chisled. 33" arms (2nd longest), 10 1/4" hands (largest) and a 80 7/8" wingspan (widest of all DB's at the Senior Bowl).

I think he's a better free safety prospect than CB and you let him get up into the 215/220 range. However, if he shows up at 205 and runs that sub-4.4, eh...

From Monday's practice:

In Mobile, the two bigger corners that immediately stuck out were Stanley Jean-Baptiste (CB Nebraska) and Keith McGill (CB Utah). Both of these guys can play football in addition to being tall drinks of water.

Utah cornerback Keith McGill started Senior Bowl week with an impressive Monday as he was one of the standouts from the morning weigh ins and then displayed impressive fluidity in coverage during practice. In press drills against the receivers, he sustains leverage through initial contact and uses his long arms to direct opponents at the line. During the team session, McGill was transitioning through off coverage well and showed impressive click and close ability to throws in front of him. The one surprising area he struggled in was catching the ball, especially considering his 10 ¼ hands.

Chiefs talked to Baptiste today

duncan_idaho 01-20-2014 07:51 PM

Missouri's Michael Sam measured in at 6-2/260, which isn't surprising.

What is a bit surprising is that he measured an 80" wingspan. So he has the wingspan of an average 6-8 man.

He could end up being a pretty intriguing 3-4 OLB prospect in the middle rounds (3-5) if he tests well in coverage/space and runs pretty well.

O.city 01-20-2014 07:52 PM

With his high motor he'd be an interesting fit. As would Dee Ford.

In addition to the 6-3 Jean-Baptiste, the #Chiefs also interviewed 6-3 Utah corner Keith McGill (according to McGill). Hmm.

Direckshun 01-20-2014 08:06 PM

Absolutely no doubt the Chiefs are interested in both those guys.

Dorsey loves long corners. And Reid loves talent out of Utah.

O.city 01-20-2014 08:08 PM

Any idea where those guys would be available, round wise?

My best guess at this point would just be that: a guess. Because anything can happen over the next four-and-a-half months.

I'll say this: all things being equal, the NFL is trending towards length in its DBs right now, corners particularly.

They're both projected to be mid-rounders, but if they test out well at the Combine, it's not unheardof for a team to pick them up as soon as the 3rd.

O.city 01-20-2014 08:20 PM

Damn, I forgot the draft isn't until May.

Thats just stupid.
