whatdrought Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 (edited) This is a fun read that SI has done the past few years. As a lover of mysteries, I like to try and follow the bread crumbs to see if I can deduce the identity of X. The first year I did, and I'm pretty confident I have this years figured out, but I won't spoil it. https://www.si.com/nfl/2021/04/28/prospect-x-mystery-of-nfl-draft-deepest-sleeper Added cool thing - Bills were one of the teams that scouted him: Quote After the season resumed following the COVID-19 outbreak, the director of football operations says seven teams sent scouts to the school’s next two games: the Packers, Bills, Raiders, Panthers, Dolphins, Seahawks and Buccaneers.

Doesn't appear that he, or last year's Player X (Matt Cole, who went to the Dols) are anything to write home about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just reading up on Forbes, looks like he opted out last year due to Covid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, that’s kind of the point. I think the articles are about showing what the other side of the draft process is like for the guys outside the media coverage. In a way it’s something we’re all familiar with- a job hunt/interview, but at the same time its completely different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo1105 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Well it’s clear he is an FCS or D2 defensive player, sounds like a LB or DB based on talking about two droppers and overhangs. Had no FBS offers. Clear Day 3 guy at best anyone wanna take a guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
