I missed the Senior Bowl...

I watched most of it and I don't think Shep got in the game. Striker got in as an OLB for about six plays and about six as a stand up defense end, rushing the passer, but didn't make any plays.

Not sure if Shep was hurt or not. He was hard to find in practice after Tuesday. This isn't the kind of game when you'd want to push it if you were dinged a little.

At the end of the game, Striker should have been in the game to rush the passer.

He was, never got a sack but was in there pressuring a lot. He was double teamed a few times! I never saw Tapper nor Shep. I missed, parts so maybe it was just me....
 
As we all know, practices are where the $ is made at the Senior bowl. Shep tore it up in practice all week. QBs had a hard time hitting him, but he was getting separation all week. He won the WR of the week award.

All 3 guys seemed to do pretty well. At weigh ins, the word was the OU guys were all muscled up and NFL ready. Striker was moved around a bit and I think there are still questions, but his versatility and hustle seemed to get noticed. Had a great hustle play that had everyone fired up where he chased a WR 60 yards downfield and knocked him down. 5'11" didn't help him, but 228 didn't hurt. Guy could be 235-240 at some point soon Sounds like Tapper was very stout at the point of attack and did ok rushing the passer. Kept seeing he was winning reps vs the guys he needed to be winning reps vs.
