The college football season gets going in earnest, and NFL scouts are officially out and about this weekend.
The NFL regular season gets going in a week, with the annual Thursday kickoff game. However, college football gets its first significant weekend of games going on Thursday. Cal-Hawaii was notable last week, but this week we get a full slate of games.
The return of college football also means NFL scouts and personnel executives will be out in force checking out prospects. NFL roster cuts are due on Saturday, so I imagine most general managers will stay close to home, but there will be plenty of NFL folks observing prospects.
