Senior Bowl Week Has Arrived

by Sean Yuille on Jan 23, 2012 3:56 PM EST in NFL Draft

The highest-profile game featuring college football players entering the draft is the Senior Bowl. Played annually in Mobile, Alabama, the Senior Bowl features the top senior players from around the nation. Aside from the combine and pro days, this is the biggest scouting event for the NFL Draft, as coaches, front-office personnel and scouts all converge on Mobile for the game.

The Lions are wasting little time in starting their scouting at the Senior Bowl. Players were measured and weighed in today, and tonight Martin Mayhew is planning on interviewing 10 players, according to Anwar Richardson.

Perhaps the best part about the Senior Bowl is that NFL Network provides extensive coverage of it. Throughout the week, practices will be shown live leading up to the game on Saturday. After the jump you can check out a full schedule for NFL Network's coverage of the Senior Bowl, which begins at 4 p.m. this afternoon.

DUDE...

Exactly!

BTW, You know not to pay full price, right? When your renewal is up… ask to be transferred to the cancellation department, then tell them you just can’t afford it anymore. I paid $85 for the year.

Performance at the Senior bowl....

.can raise a players stock by 2-3 rounds.

I believe its the only time/place NFL coaches can witness how well the college kids can adapt to a pro system. The standouts are who you are looking for.

Many times, there will be mediocre college system guys excell in a prostyle offense/defense.
