After reviewing practice reports and the game, here’s my analysis of who helped, and hurt their draft stock after the 85th East-West Shrine Game.
Stock Up
O’Brien Schofield – DE/OLB – Wisconsin: Schofield was in the process of making a difficult transition this week. After playing defensive end throughout his career, he made the switch to outside linebacker during Shrine Game week. Schofield’s size and skill set shows that he is best suited as a 3-4 OLB in the NFL. Since defenses in the Shrine Game play a 4-3 defense, Schofield had to play OLB in that scheme, which was even more difficult. Needless to say, he played well. Schofield had an interception in the 1st quarter of the game and was able to shed blocks and flow to the ball. While teams probably won’t look at him as a 4-3 OLB, I think playing that position helped Keep Reading…

What started off as a snooze fest ended up with an exciting final quarter in the 2010 East-West Shrine Game. What made it even better was that ESPN was kind enough to cut off the first part of the game with the end of a 2nd tier college basketball game. All we missed was an outstanding interception by O’Brien Schofield, who just happens to be making the transition from defensive end to outside linebacker. Not a big deal…right? The 85th Annual East-West Shrine game was led by former NFL head coaches Romeo Crennell (East) and Marty Schotenheimer (West). Even former NFL receiver Kennan McCardell came in to coach the receivers for the West squad. The game itself was uneventful until the 4th quarter, when BYU quarterback Max Hall drove the West team down for a go ahead touchdown, only to see the East team, led by Northwestern quarterback Mike Kafka, Keep Reading…

After arriving at the hotel much later than expected (thanks to Thrifty car rentals and their super quick service….), I am officially checked in. Here are a few notes about what’s going on today.
First, I had the pleasure of sharing the same flight with Mike Mayock of NFL Network, Chris Steuber of Scout.com, as well as a multitude of NFL Scouts. There was also a late addition to the Senior Bowl roster on the plane; Wisconsin DE/OLB O’Brien Schofield. Schofield had just played in the East-West Shrine Game and had a solid performance. I had a chance to speak with Schofield and we plan on doing a full interview later. Just some tidbits though, Schofield feels that he can beat any one on one block, he’d like to lay a hit on Tebow this week if possible, and that several other players from the Shrine Game were invited Keep Reading…
