After last week’s East-West Shrine game, the time for college scouting is upon us, and it’s already time for the next big step in the NFL Draft process. This week, well over a hundred players will head down to Alabama for the Senior Bowl. For some, it’s the opportunity to prove the scouts right, for others, it’s their first opportunity to play against some high-level talent and distinguish themselves from other small-school prospects.
The Detroit Lions will be down there keeping a close eye on it all. With this upcoming offseason being one of the most important in recent memory, the Senior Bowl could be a valuable piece of their offseason scouting.
