    Thoughts through the first two days of practice.

    1. Seems weird that the organizers loaded up the Denver coached North Team with QBs so the Bronco Staff could get a close look at them.
    2. Outside of the QB group this year's roster feels less talented than last year's.
    3. Outside of QBs the strength of the the rosters seems to be in the interior OL and DL. Should see some real battles here.
    4. Edge rushers seem to have a significant edge over their OT opposites.
    5. Ditto for WR over DBs
    6. Little feel as yet for the RBs and LBs in attendance.

    Players who look to be making money this week:

    • RB
    • WR: Michael Gallop (Col St.); Justin Watson (Penn)
    • TE
    • OT
    • OG: Will Hernandez (UTEP);
    • OC: Isaiah Wynn (UGA);
    • DT: Justin Jones (NC St.); BJ Hill (NC St.)
    • Edge: Marcus Davenport (UTSA); Uchenna Nwosu (USC)
    • ILB: Tre' Williams (AUB);
    • CB: Kameron Kelly (SDSU);
    • S

      Here's some practice footage of Allen and Mayfield.

        There is another collegiate football all star game that even I forgot all about, the Dream Bowl, ever heard of it.....most really have not.

        http://www.dreambowl.net/home

        SALEM FOOTBALL STADIUM,   January 11 - 15, 2018 , 

        The Dream Bowl is a College Football All-Star Showcase of the best FCS, D-II and D-III players from across the country. The game and the series of events held over Martin Luther King Weekend are a celebration of the excellence, commitment, and sacrifice made by the players and their families.

        The Dream Bowl treats seniors to a real bowl game experience.   The Dream Bowl provides first-class accommodations, meals, and facilities for the players, along with a full weekend of football and social related activities for their friends and families, which will create a lifetime of memories for their collegiate send-off game.

        And I missed it......

         

        GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

            Uhum....doesn't each squad get the same number of players at each position? Your statement sounds like they are giving the North 5-6 QBs while only giving 1-2 to the South. 

            Or...are you saying that it seems that the North is getting more of the "highly rated" QBs...and that the South is getting the end of the drafters.

                    He'll kill it at the combine in the vertical- he was a HS dunk champion.

                          Savage did Denver a huge favor loading them up with the top QB prospects, since they're in the market. Elway specifically requested Mayfield. Add in Josh Allen, Luke Falk, and they would have gotten your guy Mason Rudolph too- if he hadn't been hurt.

                            Yeah- I'm not really feeling the Saquon Barkley love- especially not @ #1 overall. Saw a stat on Walter Football that 21% of his carries were for negative yardage. Ditto the Josh Allen #1 overall by Mel. He's got an Elway arm with Kizer accuracy. 

                            Got a feeling there will be near rioting if we don't use one of the first round picks on a QB. Darnold or Mayfield.

                                You know I'm kidding about the rioting- like us fans have any say in the matter. I think with Jimmuh's comment when he introduced Dorsey- getting a franchise qb is Job #1.

                                  For starters Elway "requested" that Mayfield be assigned to the DNV staff's squad.

                                    Savage did Denver a huge favor loading them up with the top QB prospects, since they're in the market. Elway specifically requested Mayfield. Add in Josh Allen, Luke Falk, and they would have gotten your guy Mason Rudolph too- if he hadn't been hurt.

                                    Who did the other team get?

                                    And Rudolph isn't really "my guy"....I simply reported that a particular scouting service had him ranked as the best QB prospect.  And still does.  But some other arrogant cokwads seemed to take personal affront that some professional scouting service would disagree with their amateur opinions.  I pointed out that he is in the mix it seems to be highly drafted...and to potentially be one of the actual better QBs coming out of this group. I also pointed out that he has the big red flag "Big 12 QB"  spray painted prominently on his back.

                                        I've mentioned him before, but another player to watch is "Horrible Harry" Harrison Phillips from Stanford. One of the leading tacklers in the Pac 12. Supposedly he is strong enough where he wants to set the BP record in the combine.

                                           Yeah because I don't see that any of these guys are all that and a bag of chips it's called being smart
