Re: Should the Senior Bowl or the Combine Workouts Matter?

So, if you're going to invest a fifth round pick in someone, it's nice to know that he's coachable and he takes instruction constructively and then takes those lessons onto the field.

Sure beats drafting some guy you only saw on film who surprisingly dropped to you because he's a head case and a royal pain in the a$$.
But, as has been pointed out, who besides Mike Nolan and Jon Gruden would know how "coachable" one of this year's prospects is based on the Senior Bowl?
