Kind've absurd they grade the Senior Bowl but here you go

Is that defensive % considered good? Average?

Well here is your answer, I guess:

More continued good press. If Mel brings his A game to the combine as well then he really could be a 1st round selection. Mel, Cisco and Trill. The Syracuse 2021 draft trifecta.

I think it makes sense. This isn't a feel good allstar game. It's an initial NFL tryout.

And all the scouts are there. My cousin is a scout for NFL team and says this is as important as combine to see all these players on the field playing against each other instead of just testing

I admittedly am not too familiar with how the Senior Bowl game is organized and coached, but I don't understand how accurate these grades can be with respect to the playcalling and assignments. The game is def an important part of the process

That's a good point. Given that everyone gets limited snaps, the week of practice leading up to the game is probably more important than the game itself.

NFL.com Reuter mock has Mel going 29 to the Packers. Nice. Mel is finding his way into the lower first round in a couple mock drafts now. Good stuff.

 

[Cusefan69]

Miller from Pro Football Network has the Cowboys trading up to get Mel at pick 12. More great press for Mel.

Amazing. Good for him.

That is crazy.

Amazing we wasted some legit NFL talent the last couple of years (understand this last one was unique and led to opt outs) because our offense was one of the worst in football at sustaining drives.

 

[Cuse12]

Amazing how well his stock has been rising since the END of the season. Truly remarkable. He was a great player and I wish we were able to see him showcase his talents with a better offensive team. Would’ve been nice to have a big year and have our 3 NFL guys be talked about all season and create that buzz about cuse produce NFL talent again.

Whoa. That’s huge!

3 minute mark for those who don't want to watch the whole thing

Also, I know it's been stated over and over, but it's too bad we have three guys who will probably be drafted in the first few rounds on one side of the ball and we never really got to see them in 2020.

This is the syracuse way.

Here is the link to the Mock having him go to the Packers at the 29th pick

Three-round 2021 NFL mock draft 1.0: Jets trade out of No. 2 overall pick

In Chad Reuter's first three-round mock of the 2021 NFL Draft, he projects four trades in Round 1, including a deal between the Jets and Panthers for the No. 2 overall pick.

Too much good news for a Syracuse player makes us like "where's the dark gray cloud that goes with the silver-lining" lol

You’re absolutely right
