Quote:Being able to coach and work directly on the field with these prospects during Senior Bowl week is a nice advantage.  I don't like that a bad record led to the coaching invitation, but I'll take any small leg up when this team is involved.   

 

 

I definitely believe it's a huge advantage under the circumstances of a difficult season.

 

One major benefit that can be overlooked is it helps the team staff that coaches one of the Senior Bowl squads to eliminate players in the draft process or substantially lower their grades.   If coaching in the Senior Bowl prevents even one draft mistake,  it's well worth it.
