MLB Dannel Ellerbe should rack up some tackles in this game and impress scouts.

OC John Cooper is a guy I wouldn't mind taking a late round pick on or possibly sign as a UDFA.

Watch the West's LBs closely. Victor Butler, Jason Phillips, Jason Williams are three guys that I want to see live.

Cooper is probably a UDFA with his weight being so light at 272lbs.

I hope Ian Johnson does well. He is a great guy and very tough. He finished a game a couple years ago with a partially collapsed lung. He's not very big, but he reads blocks as well as I've seen and has a couple of gears. It makes defenders take wrong angles. I think he will be a good late-round pick-up for someone and will help a team in spots. He played special teams this year, so he has that going for him, too, as far as making a team.

Guys who looked like they could make the roster after watching the Shrine Game include:

RB Marlon Lucky - Found holes and played like he had something to prove breaking tackles.
S Keith Fitzhugh - solid against the run and a nice pass break up. At 5'11" 205, he is small, but played like a Bob Sanders wantabe.
G Augustus Parrish - Road grader. He owned Phillip Hunt.
G Jamon Merridith - Like Parrish, he's 6'5" with long arms.
T Ramon Foster - At 6'8" 325lbs would make a nice RT.
DT Darryl Richard - Got some push upfield and played the run.
DT Myron Pryor - Did well against double teams.

RB Gartrell Johnson - Looked like BenJarvis Green-Ellis.
LB Jason Williams - Played well in coverage. Karlos Dansby light?
LB Victor Butler - Good looking SAM project and immediate Special Teams help.
TE Bear Pascoe - Says he likes Witten, but looks like Todd Heap.
NT Ra'Shon Harris - 6'5" 321 and does not move off his spot. I'd love to see him as a late round pick.

Bear Pascoe is the real deal. Has a big time motor and some nice hands. He was a quarterback in high school. Who does that make you think of?

I'll take Mike Thomas in the mid-late rounds as a Jacoby replacement.

Watch the Senior Bowl and see if you can get an eye on South Carolina's Kenny McKinley. IF he's a Gamecock, he's got to be good. Just ask Bob McNair. Anyway, he's a slot guy who returns punts. He's got more size than Thomas, so he should be better able to take a hit from grown men.

I will not be mad if we drafted Stephen McGee, but I think his stock has risen higher than I am willing to invest in a QB. But he looked the part.

Another Aggie has eaten his way to UDFA status, if Lane show some dedication between now and the draft, he might be worth signing. But he needs a diet badly and he just doesn't get it.

Dillard is a stud.

I am going to rewatch again to try and concentrate on the middle of the lines, I will try to get back with some more info soon.

Senior Bowl coverage starts today!
