Finally the senior bowl had some players at Dline and LBs that are going to be drafted and if you watch tape from practice and senior bowl, Zabel held his own and neutralized some of those players
I need to watch some vids of Zabel honestly, but being from a small school and being a trench man is a lot different than being a WR or a RB
like the all time greats that Jerry and Walter were. Donovan Jackson dominated against the highest competition in college in the big games,
unlike Zabel. Volson looked great at North Dakota State too...

Sounds good, will check the guy out if I can. I just don't have much faith in a small school guy coming right in and playing as well as Donovan
Jackson right off the bat. Just me even if he impressed in Senior Bowl practices.
