The college football post-season All-Star games start this Saturday with the East-West Shrine Game (3 PM EST, NFL Network). It’s a step down from next weekend’s Senior Bowl, but there are still plenty of players involved in this year’s game who will be drafted.
The Shrine game is mostly a showcase for day three draft picks, but there have been plenty of Shrine alums who have gone on to make an impact at the NFL level. Seventy players from last year’s game made an opening day NFL roster this year.
The Shrine game may not involve as many highly regarded prospects as the Senior Bowl, but there are plenty of players who have gone on to play key roles for NFL teams the last few years.
