Dunno Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Interesting concept, but given the injury risk and the financial consequences (Hello Sergio!) of serious injuries, just cannot see this work. Now if they played an UDFA bowl a week after the draft, that would be interesting, because those guys would then really go all out as they are playing for the careers. Quote
RavenMad Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Surely this is just the same as a game like the Senior Bowl so it's not a new concept at all. Quote
