Ok.. So I was reviewing the Senior Bowl roster that they have up and noticed one name not on there.. Vinny Curry.. Kinda Surprising since he is a Senior and a high ranked one at that..

He's on there, just after, ironically considering your other discussion, Juron Criner.

So who is there, that hopefully following a good senior bowl, jumps their stock into the first round thereby knocking others down towards us?

Hopefully Mike Adams and Zebrie Sanders will do so, particularly with Detroit, Baltimore and Pittsburgh all needing LT's. And Zach Brown and Brandon Thompson could do with rehabilitating their stock back into the first round. Anyone else?

I think Mike Adams probably goes a lot higher than people think. I doubt he makes it past the Steelers at 24, but maybe even higher.

I'm kind of surprised too that Adams falls so low in many mock drafts.

Two players I'm very interested to see are George Iloka (Boise St.) and Leonard Johnson (Iowa St.). Both could be mid round picks that could really help the Pats secondary.

Two of my favorites. Iloka is the 2nd best safety for me (behind Barron) and I love Johnson's physicality and versatility.

Kendall Wright is injured for the senior bowl (via twitter).

Good chance for the more fringe WR's to shine and boost stock. That's both Wright and Michael Floyd out now.

I read somewhere that Michigan C Dave Molk will NOT be there. I'm not sure why. And I really wanted to see him, and just as important, get an accurate ht and wt from him.

I'm also interested to see what he weighs in at. He has a great story and is really a guy I'm hoping does well.

For anyone that doesn't know his story

Is it crazy that it's 2:30 am here and I'm staying up just to see how long Courtney Upshaw's arms are?

You know what, it might be. :singing:

For the benefits of Wilfork#75, courtney Upshaws arms are 31 1/2. I'm no expert but that doesn't sound so good. From last years combine:

Justin Houston - 34 1/2
Akeem Ayers - 33
Von Miller - 33 1/2
Sam Acho - 33 1/2
Aldon Smith - 35 1/2
Jabaal Sheard - 33 1/2
Brooks Reed - 32 1/2

Would arm length alone move him down teams boards? Dubious I would think but will seed doubt I suspect.

Man joe adams is smaller than i thought he was

Big time drop

At least as far as the Pats are concerned in the first round. BB is a stickler for certain measurables. No matter what his gametape looks like. It often makes me crazy.
