🏈 JPW Senior Bowl Offensive Player of the Game

[Guest]

"Alabama's John Parker Wilson also played well, completing 7-of-13 passes for 56 yards and scoring on a four-yard scamper in the first quarter.

Wilson was named offensive player of the game, while Robert Ayers of Tennessee was named the game's outstanding defensive player."

Thats some pretty anemic numbers for offensive player of the game. I am guessing alot of people played meaning not many had big numbers.

Pat White had a much better game than JPW.

Pat White had a much better game than JPW.

I don't agree with that.

Pat White's touchdown throw was not a very well thrown ball. The receiver absolutely blew by the corner back and White threw it a bit late. His other big play? A screen where Andre Brown(RB) did all the work for 30+ yards. I honestly believe he should have spent some time at wide receiver during this game.

Of course, I'm not saying that JPW looked like he should go first round, but he did help his case for the NFL.

JPW, managed the game pretty good IMHO. Equal run and pass, and he ran to keep a drive alive for a first down, and scored a TD. I thought he did decent.

I think Bama QBs have a pretty good tradition of winning MVP of the Senior Bowl. I know Walter Lewis and Gary Hollingsworth won it and I want to say that either Barker or Watts won it as well.

With 4 QBs, all of which played, you have to consider the reduced number of snaps plus simple not being allowed to gel as a unit or get into a rhythm.

I think 66 nailed it. JPW managed his drives better than the other guys did.

JPW had a couple of plays where he had to run for a first down. One in paticular I thought he had no chance of getting away and recovered nicely. I don't agree with Pat White having the better game either if anything Pat showed that he couldnt deliver the long ball on target.

Was anyone else impressed by lack of greatness of No. QB Rhett Bomar?

yeah, the other thing i was curious about is how he was the QB of the North... Its in south Texas...

I thought Pat White did a good job of quieting the critics myself. Thought he played solid.

JP managed the game well as well. He played above average.

I also was pleased to hear the announcers set the record straight about the term "manage the game". People always talk like that's a bad thing.

i didnt get to see the game, ive heard and seem some of JP's stuff but how did Rashad do?

 

[imported_Porter]

The game is more for the fans and about the players having fun. Nobody helped their draft stock with their performances. The scouts and coaches all skip town on Thursday... usually early in the morning.

As far as Rashad, he had a very good week. Solidified himself atop most of the boards at safety, but a lot can still change between now and Draft Day. He needs to have a solid Combine showing, but it is expected that he will. The only knock on him all week was he is a little light. He makes up for that though with his instincts and football intelligence.

I still don't see JP getting drafted... I'm sorry but I just don't see it

He will probably be drafted.

He will probably be drafted.

It is very, very, very unlikely at this point.

 

[ExiledTidefan]

I say he gets an invite to attend Jaguars camp this summer.

I say he's signed as a second day undrafted free agent at best...if that.

 

[BamaHeat]

I still think if he somehow gets in the pros for a year we will see a good bit from him eventually.
