2012 Senior Bowl: Practice Report




This is my Tuesday 2012 Senior Bowl Practice Report (North). I'll note how some of the players performed in the drills, and I'll pepper in some opinions on these prospects from the leading voices in the NFL Draft community.

2012 Senior Bowl: Tuesday North Practice Report

Audie Cole, ILB, N.C. State
Audie Cole is having a really good week thus far. He looked solid in full pads, and as DraftCountdown's Scott Wright described, "[Cole is] rangy and athletic with good speed and quick feet."

Kirk Cousins, QB, Michigan State
The consensus is that Kirk Cousins has been the most impressive quarterback on the North Team despite an interception to George Iloka, with Russell Wilson being a close second (more on that later). Kellen Moore hasn't done anything to change the popular belief that he's just a backup at the next level.



Vinny Curry, DE/OLB, Marshall
Vinny Curry came into this week as a second-round prospect, and it appears that won't change. He's had some good and some bad moments in the one-on-one drills.

"He has a little bit of stiffness to him, but he has the effort, athleticism and motor to rush the passer," said Mike Mayock. "I'm hearing a lot a second-round grade."

Alfonzo Dennard, CB, Nebraska
Alfonzo Dennard really struggled on Monday. He was much better Tuesday, though he was used at nickel pretty often, which might ultimately be his position at the next level.

Mike Mayock likened Dennard's body type to Prince Amukamara's, but really questioned his ball skills. That's not surprising, as Dennard had four career interceptions at Nebraska.

Mike Martin, DT, Michigan
An entertaining portion of Tuesday's practice was a brief fight between Mike Brewster and Mike Martin. Martin beat Brewster twice (was held once), which angered the declining Ohio State center. Martin is really helping himself with a strong week. I'll be shocked if he doesn't make it into the top three rounds of my 2012 NFL Mock Draft, which will be updated tonight.

Chris Polk, RB, Washington
I haven't talked about the running backs much, but Chris Polk has been a major disappointment this week. Charlie has more on this in his Tuesday Senior Bowl Practice Report.



Brian Quick, WR, Appalachian State
Brian Quick was one of the winners of the weigh-in yesterday, but he dropped two passes in Tuesday's practice and didn't really look that explosive. Bucky Brooks complimented him in an interview, however, so at least Quick has that going for him.

Kendall Reyes, DE/DT, Connecticut
Kendall Reyes looked pretty solid in Tuesday's practice. He beat second-round prospect Kevin Zeitler in the one-on-one drills.

Russell Wilson, QB, Wisconsin
Mike Mayock once again had glowing praise for Russell Wilson. Like yesterday, he compared him to Doug Flutie in terms of being physically challenged but emerging when it matters most. Coaches and general managers have to love his initiative to take mental practice reps when it's not his turn behind center.

Some team will give Russell Wilson a shot with its third- or fourth-round pick. Perhaps that will be the Redskins, who met extensively with Wilson, as chronicled in Monday's Senior Bowl Rumor Mill.

Your rumor on T. Jefferon is false and confirmed by TJ himself here...

Jordan Hill- 3 tackles - .5 sacks - 1.5 TFL.

Kewan Short- 3 tackles - 0 sacks - 1 TFL.

Give your fellow alum some love Walt.

You could also say that Geno Smith was a big winner as well.

It sounds like Lane Johnson did well enough to be taken at #11 by Chargers if Eric Fisher is off the board.

I meant to say surprised his stock wasnt down, in regards to Glennon. All of the North quarterbacks stunk, IMO

I thought Baccari Rambo had a good game.

Also, Mike Glennon did not impress me at all. Surprised his stock listed as down by you. He made a lot of awful throws to wide-open receivers.

What do you think about Leon Mcfadden. I spent the last week watching footage of CB's(And RB's) and came away impressed with him. I kind of feel he could be the Casey Hayward of this coming draft. He isn't huge but makes up for it with aggressiveness(Still has good size and is well built). Has good ball skills and instincts.

Was him not playing in the game the reason his stock wasn't rising.

Who in the world said Landry Jones improved his stock. If they did how could you possibly agree with that. It doesn't take a professional scout to see he had a bad week and just a horrible game overall. Don't believe everything you read or thought you read(No1 said he improved his stock over this week)

I can't comprehend how you could call some1 ignorant as you comment about something you have no clue about. The Human race has yet amazed me again.

Where is Stephan Taylor? He looked damn good towards the end of the game.
