The rosters for the annual Senior Bowl, pitting some of the best college graduates* against each other in a showcase for NFL scouts. ( North Roster. South Roster) Notable absences from the game are quarterbacks Matt Ryan of Boston College and Brian Brohm of Louisville. Ryan and Brohm are figured to be the first two quarterbacks off the board, but the signal caller I like the best is that man to the right, Michigan's Chad Henne. Henne possesses great intangibles and has the arm strength to make every throw. If anyone watched the bowl game against Florida, Henne threw the out route from the far hash about as well as it can be thrown. He has an NFL caliber arm, but I think he can struggle with accuracy sometimes, and he's not terribly mobile
Another player I love is Delaware QB Joe Flacco. Flacco is a transfer from Pitt who has a prototypical NFL QB body. He stands 6'6" tall, which will help him to see over the line and not need to rely on throwing lanes as much. Scouts Inc. guru Todd McShay lists Flacco's big weakness as forcing balls, but I think that's due to him playing at Delaware and feeling like he always needs to make a big play. Once he matures I think he'll overcome that problem and be a very solid QB in the NFL. In fact, I think Henne and Flacco will both be better than Matt Ryan and Brian Brohm.
I'll have more of an in depth preview in the coming days, but for now, are there any players who you like or dislike from the rosters?
* Multiple people have pointed out the fact that graduates probably isn't applicable to all of the players in the game. my bad.
