2014 Senior Bowl: Thursday Rumor Mill
By Charlie Campbell – @draftcampbell
Senior Bowl Rumormill Thursday
With all the general managers, coaches and scouts in attendance for the Senior Bowl, there is a lot of chatter going around. Here are some of the highlights from the rumormill.
St. Louis needs two of those players to rise up and be very coveted in case the Texans decide to take one with the first pick. However, if Houston decides to go with Jadeveon Clowney, the Rams only need one quarterback to distance himself in order to open up a trade with a team wanting to move up to get the top-rated quarterback. Even though St. Louis sounds like it is sticking with Bradford, the organization is watching this quarterback class closely.
Sources told WalterFootball.com that Bortles received seven estimations from the NFL Advisory Board when considering entering the 2014 NFL Draft, and all seven came back with first-round grades. Bortles has more size and a bigger skill set than the other first-round prospects – Teddy Bridgewater, Johnny Manziel or Derek Carr. The combination of size and athletic ability led to E.J. Manuel being the first quarterback drafted last April, and that could easily happen again with Bortles.
