2011 NFL Draft: East West Shrine Game 2011

This afternoon is the annual East West Shrine Bowl.  This game doesn't have the prospects that the Senior Bowl does, but there are still some guys here that are worth watching.  The most important thing about the Shrine Game is the practices because that is where the NFL coaches and scouts get to really look at the guys on both rosters.  The Titans had some personnel there this week, and Alfie from Big Cat Country was nice enough to send over a list of the players he saw the Titans people talking too. 

The players included:

  • Georgia LB Akeem Dent
  • Iowa State S David Sims
  • UCLA DT David Carter
  • LSU G Joseph Barksdale
  • Fresno State OLB Chris Carter
  • Wisconsin QB Scott Tolzien
  • Iowa DE Karl Klug

UNC DT Marvin Austin is regarded by most people to be the best prospect in this game, and has apparently shown up in good shape after sitting out the entire 2010 college football season.  Alfie didn't mention the Titans as one of the teams that showed interest in him, but you can believe that he is on their radar.

Click through the jump for the rosters for both teams.

That's a very reassuring watch list

LB, S, DT, G, OLB, QB, DE

At least there won’t be any surprise first round running backs..

My last two signatures were about Vince Young and Rusty Smith. I'm sure as hell not giving Collins room down here. So this will be my signature until the Titans show me something signature worthy.

But I digress, GO TITANS!

"Iowa S David Sims"

This should say Iowa State S David Sims.

I was looking at this asking myself, “Who the hell is this guy?”

not sure. I would love a Hawkeye to be on the Titans.

Sash is a speedy guy and can make an open field tackle. Just not sure about how well his pass coverage would carry over.

thats true. Sash could probably be taken in the 5th or 6th round I would guess.

Maybe sooner, havent really looked at where he’s projected to go.

yeah I watched that one

what a game right? Sash is basically my man crush right now because my coach told me that I had the same skill set he did coming out of high school. he’s my favorite player in college football.

Get 'em.

That’s alot of BEEF!!!!!! Looks like a late rounder maybe??

kinda wanna see what nathan enderle can do

ive heard good things about him, even comparisons to josh freeman, maybe he can be a 2nd or 3rd round pick for us who knows

I officially don't care who's on the Titans anymore, i just want a Super Bowl.

by oilers15 on Jan 22, 2011 12:59 PM CST reply actions  

sporting news

was at practices all week. enderle started out hot….ended up doing really poorly with accuracy at the tail end of the week. devlin didnt have the greatest week of practtices. one guy that they said had one of the best weeks was fresno state LB chris carter, who excelled in all facets of the game particularly COVERAGE. imagine that…a LB that knows how to cover a TE or RB out of backfield. he’s def one to watch. glad to see titans were talking to him. for those of you blessed to have NFLN enjoy. i hate my cable provider.

McClain, DT

from South Florida was an unblockable beast during the practices. SI said he is a “sleeper”.

Really want to see how Pat Devlin shows

He’s a guy who should be there at 40

word around the game

is that Devlin hasn’t lived up to the hype in practices

I must admit a part of me thinks he's getting more hype

simply because he’s taken a Flacco-like career path.

Yeah I wonder about Devlin

It’s not like the guy ahead of him at Penn State was that good.

Tyrod Taylor could be an interesting late round pick up.

But hopefully he shows a little more accuracy

Don't get me wrong, I like him much more than Newton

If you are going to draft a QB that is going to need a ton of work, it makes more sense to me to do it in the 4th round than the 1st.

Why's the kid from Queen's on the west team? Kingston is way east

He’s also a mountain. 6’9 340, and he looks like he could easily add some bulk to his frame

Jared Gaither

probably even bigger.

That kid from Queen's is tall

It would be good to see him get some looks, but the league he plays in might even be a step down from DIII.

how about Devlin as the project QB? I like him more than Dalton at least.

At 40

I’m alright with Devlin, Dalton or the guy with the long name that I can’t spell- Coepernick or something.

In Reinfeldt We Trust

by WinnipegTitanFan13 on Jan 22, 2011 8:31 PM CST up reply actions  

Devlin's a projected 2nd rounder and Dalton's a third

My theory for taking Dalton would be that despite it being a reach, he probably won’t last till 72.

Dalton goes in the second.

He is going to be one of those guys that people fall in love with.
