The Senior Bowl can be a launchpad for those prospects who make the most of the weekend. This year was no different, as there were many that showed they can perform against top talent and impressed the eyes of NFL scouts. However, there was one player that shined brighter than the others, Georgia Bulldogs receiver Ladd McConkey.
Caleb Johnson, host of the "Dopey Millennial Show," was joined by Miles Garrett of FOX 5 Sports, who was in Mobile for the Senior Bowl and was asked his thoughts on who he believes was the best player of the weekend.
"Ladd McConkey was definitely stealing the show out there," Garrett said. He also shared that the defensive backs that were a part of the Senior Bowl all said that McConkey was the toughest receiver to cover.
While the Bulldogs' college numbers may not suggest it, Garrett believes that the performance could land McConkey a Day 1 selection in the 2024 NFL Draft. McConkey never surpassed 800 receiving yards in a single season, mostly due to scheme, but his size and athletic traits could be a difference maker at the next level.
