What I learned while watching the Senior Bowl.
 
Almost nothing. Bad weather and turnovers killed this game. The QBs on the South squad stunk up the place. And Patrick Willis got pushed around a bit. Merriwether of Miami played mostly corner, and made some nice plays. That's about all.

Finall Score
North - 27
South - 0

I don't know wheelman......Willis had a knack for being around the ball most times throughout the game. Just me.....but I kinda' like a guy like that, regardless of what school he comes from.

I'm just saying that he didn't put on a good show yesterday. I've always thought highly of him. But you have to show up for these senior games. They play a huge role in determining what coaches and GMs think of you as a prospect.

I'm not saying the south put on a show or anything, but wasn't Willis the south's defensive MVP for the game?

From the article:

Quote:

Willis had an outstanding individual day for the South, notching 11 tackles, forcing a fumble and winning his team’s Defensive MVP honors.

i watched the game and i thought that willis was in on alot of plays... even the announcers said, "willis with the tackle again..."

I attended majority of the practices throughout the week, and noticed that the North DB's were very fast and good. The South Squad didn't look that good.

JOSH GATTIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WF!!!!!!!!!!

I think we should draft Josh Gattis and Jon Abbate.... that'd solve a problem at safety AND linebacker

RE: What I learned while watching the Senior Bowl.
 
i dont remember seeing gattis but abbate is a good LB though small... he is always around the ball but he does get blocked pretty easily if the DTs dont cover up the lineman... i wouldnt take him before early 3rd round..

Willis played great but he played great as Bockwodlt great. Trust me he was always around the ball but honestly when you watched lineman got to him and he disengaged after the 1st down to make tackles. He made tackles like Bockwoldt all from behind, some good stops but he needs to show more

willis did make alot of tackles from behind but his defensive line didnt really help him out

We need cornerbacks and in a bad way. I know Willis is a very big prospect but how many times have we drafted a top prospect and he bombs and how many times have we drafted a nobody and he excelled.

I'm taking my chances with the nobody!

The only time I remember getting a big LB prospect in the 1st was Mark Fields and he was darn good. He just left us quickly, Haz mostly drafted our LB prospects in the third rounds.

The only coach as we all know was Jim "played like pooh" Mora, who knew LB's. Sorry to be misleading with that. He knew to listen to his Defensive Corrdinator. I can not believe I am drawing a blank on his name. Any how, that man knew how to draft LBers and which ones to trade for.
All we can hope is that Gary Gibbs can do the same thing. After the job he did last year I have faith that he will do well by us. We let alot of LB's go last in the draft which was one of the deepest in history to help our million dollar man drew bress. Then to have bush drop into our laps, IMO, changed the whole draft for us.
This should be Gibbs year to direct us in FA and the draft. I have the faith
