Genuine question if anyone has any insight...
How many of these All-Conference players from smaller programs work out?
I know that Brunson went to a school that has a good program I believe...I dont know about the conference....but wasnt Brunson like All-Conference but didnt get scooped until 2nd round.
This Alvarado kid was like All-Defense in college...dont know which conference...but he was a useful tool in the playoffs....and he was undrafted I believe.
I know those are only 2 guys that actually might have beat the odds...but Im curious how these D2 All-Conference players have worked out. Or All-Defense.
It seems like a lot of these NFL prospects that were given awards for college production but dont get scooped early work out(WR for sure). Maybe "a lot" is not the right wording but you get what Im trying to say.
Why are guy with skills getting overlooked? Do professional orgs not care about college or high school coaches opinions on if a player is skilled or not?
I know I am pushing a lot of "draft 2way players" posts today...but it seems like there is an issue with going with measurable over skill.
