2025 Senior Bowl

[gocy444]

1:30 pm on Saturday. We have Noel, Higgins, Porter and Travis all playing. Sounds like Noel and Higgins are tearing it up, with a lot of buzz around Noel being the WR there.

I wouldn't hate seeing Purdy throw to Noel or Higgins on Sundays...

Practices are more important than the game. Every nfl team has people down there

I have to think that being an elite special teams player helps Porter's chances of making a roster.

For sure. But the bigger thing is his speed. He’s going to run a really good 40.

A lot of people have been saying that Noel has been the best WR at the senior bowl, with Higgins not far behind. I haven't heard much about Porter, but saw that Jalen Travis is performing well.

It’s too bad how surprising the performances by our Cyclones are to the so-called NFL recruiting ‘experts’.

The "experts," have proven, time n time n time again, to be anything but, to the point o CLOWNISH, despite big paychecks.
I ould start n finish with Brock.

I don’t know…they’re right more often than they’re wrong. It’s just that they’re not always right. You don’t see the Purdy story very often.

The guys identified as top talent coming out of high school by the experts are generally regarded the same coming out of college. There's a whole hype industry there. But at draft time, teams can't afford to waste draft capital on hype. There's a ton of difference between the way sports media analyzes a draft and the way team execs do.

For sure. Guess I thought he was talking about NFL scouts being the "experts" and not media talking heads. Scouts are right way more often and don't really care that you were a 5 star that went to a blue blood.

We never find out what NFL scouts actually think until draft night. Everything before that, despite how it's sourced, is just media speculation.

I would not be shocked if Noel or Higgins end up with Scheelhaase, whether thats in LA or elsewhere.

Purdy is the perfect example. It doesn't matter how talented a player is if they go to a team that is not a good fit and I would say that Purdy went to the right team. He's a perfect fit for San Fran's offense. If he went to most of the other teams in the NFL, we probably wouldn't be talking about him right now. It makes me feel bad for some guys, like Trevor Lawrence, for example. Super talented and he's a likeable guy, but he went to a horrible team with bad coaching.

Jaylin Noel had a meeting with the Patriots at the Senior Bowl.

Dark horse receiving prospect comments on meeting with Patriots

The New England Patriots met with Jaylin Noel at the Senior Bowl, and according to the underrated Iowa State wide receiver prospect, the meeting went "really good." Noel was an electric weapon for the Cyclones offense last season when recording 80 catches for…

I have always felt Noel is a perfect fit in today’s NFL. Great route runner that gets in and out of his breaks really well, great run after the catch, and great strength to deal with press.
