It’s Senior Bowl week, the most important week for college seniors trying to make a name for themselves.\u00a0 Most players are already ranked by the NFL teams.\u00a0 However, a good or bad week at the Senior Bowl practices and Interviews can make or break some of these players.\u00a0 Monday will be the weigh-ins and measurements.\u00a0 We find a few players lighter and heavier, and not as tall as the college PR department said they were.<\/p>\n
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday are the practices and I will have reports on Wednesday and Friday with a pre-game report as well.\u00a0 Alabama QB Mac Jones was a late add to the American Roster, coached by the Carolina coaching staff.\u00a0 The National team is coached by the Dolphins staff.\u00a0 Two Alabama stars WR DeVonta Smith and OC Landon Dickerson will attend but not play while rehabbing injuries.\u00a0 Smith dislocated his finger in the National Championship game.<\/p>\n
Senior Bowl will be broadcast by NFL Network at 1:30 on Saturday January 30th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n Some other quick Morsels:<\/p>\n – This is an important week for North Dakota St OT Dillon Raduntz.\u00a0 He was the 1st<\/sup> player invited to play in the game.\u00a0 Radunz is the 6\u2019 6\u201d 300 lb LT that kept QB Trey Lance clean.\u00a0 ND St is a FCS school and they play at a lower level of competition. Lets see how he looks in practice against top flight college talent.\u00a0 With a good week he could move up the draft boards.<\/p>\n – Every team will be represented at the practices and interviews.\u00a0 Some of these are on-field discussions that Bill Belichick has with the players and he has been known to give a little coaching too.\u00a0 The teams usually bring a crew of coaches to observe and conduct interviews.\u00a0 The league will allow in person interviews at the All Star games.<\/p>\n – Matt Patricia will be re-joining the Patriots in an unspecified advisory capacity.<\/p>\n – Looks like Josh McDaniels isn\u2019t going anywhere.\u00a0 Philadelphia hired Nich Siiranni as their head coach.\u00a0 \u00a0He was the former Indianapolis Offensive coordinator.\u00a0 Reports that McDaniels leaving Indianapolis high and dry after accepting their Head Coach position has come back to haunt him.\u00a0 I was surprised he would even be considered, never mind being one of the top candidates.<\/p>\n – Missed the Lions picking Dan Campbell as Head Coach.\u00a0 He comes from New Orleans and is a no nonsense kind of guy.\u00a0 He briefly coached Miami as an Interim coach.\u00a0 He joked at his press conference that he hurried up and signed his contract before the Lions realized they hired the wrong Campbell.\u00a0 Iowa States Matt Campbell has been highly successful and a hot coaching name for a bigger program.<\/p>\n – SF will receive a third draft pick compensation for the loss of Martin Mayhew as Washington GM.\u00a0 This means they will have compensatory 3rd<\/sup> round picks in 2021, 2022, and 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s Senior Bowl week, the most important week for college seniors trying to make a name for themselves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":2456,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22259],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-34429","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-2021-patriots-offseason"],"yoast_head":"\n
