A number of capable SEC players missed out on combine invitations, including surprise absentee Jake Coker from Alabama. The Crimson Tide quarterback is on our list of five SEC players -- and we easily could have named more -- who could still wind up on NFL rosters next season despite combine snubs: Coker: Eighteen quarterbacks will appear before the scouts in Indy, but the senior quarterback from the national champion will not be among them. We get it: Coker’s raw and inexperienced. Maybe he’s a bit too slow to scan the field and his delivery is too long, but he was outstanding in the postseason (59-for-81 for 825 yards, 6 TDs, 0 INTs in wins against Florida, Michigan State and Clemson).
