By all accounts he surprised some people at the Senior Bowl and has put himself on the map as far a QB prospects go.

The reasons i liked him before are virtually the same reasons i like him now:
-nice compact throwing motion it reminds me of right handed Mike Vick, almost textbook throwing motion
-above average arm strength
-above average mobility although he's not really a 'scrambler' or 'running' QB

another reason i liked him was because is so raw (only had 1 year as a starter) that he should be available in the later rounds as developmental QB, but after the Senior Bowl he's probably worked his was into a middle round pick

Looking at the Senior Bowl here are thoughts on a few players:

QB - Jarret Brown has the tools. If we don't take Clausen, he'd be a good fit in the 4th or later rounds if he slips that far.

RB - LaGarrett Blount looked good and will be a good back for a power runing team, not necessarily a good fit for our Zone scheme though.

J. Bell - Didn't like the bobble of the ball on the hit by Mays or the fumble. He better fix this before training camp for wherever he ends up. Still like him as a late rounder.

G - John Jerry - best South OL, big, physical.
C - Tennant - looked solid, but if he's gone, Olsen from ND held up better than I expected with Cody or D. Williams over him.
G/C - Byers (USC) played both G/C, had a good motor, played with good technique, a little small at 299. Got to second level and out front on a reverse well. Could be a good fit for our Zone scheme in the 7th or as UDFA.

G - Iupati is a bit over-rated and not a good fit for a Zone scheme. He's a mauler, doesn't have great feet and reaches (a lot) in pass-pro.

T - Ciron Black, Selvish Capers....pass on both.

T - Ducasse - not sold on him, but don't hate him either. He's a project and will probably take a year or two to be NFL-starter ready.

DT - Dan Williams, TN - If we're switching to a 3-4, and are working a trade down scenario, this guy would be a great anchor at NT. In a 4-3 he looked good at both the 1 & 3 technique. He'll be gone in the 1st 20 picks though, so he's highly unlikely to wind up in DC.
