Scotty M not on that list? Thought for sure he'd got a Senior Bowl invite.

Scott was a great player, but he was also a 7th round draft pick and nearly went undrafted. That's where he was projected to go, and the Senior Bowl is reserved for the best of the best, players expected to be easily drafted.
Now take that with a grain of salt, as in Scott M's case, he's stuck in the NFL with one team since being drafted, a rarity for a player drafted that low. To still be in the league three years removed from being drafted in the 7th round is an awesome accomplishment. He's shown he was underrated as an NFL prospect with as well as he's done in San Diego.
It's an inexact science of course, as Harris was 1 of only 6 QB's invited to the '04 Senior Bowl, but couldn't hook on with any of three teams and is now in the Arena League, as a kick returner. I'm certainly not diminishing his career though, he's probably my favorite BG player of all time. The NFL is just a crapshoot, it's amazing that J.P. Losman can get drafted 22nd overall out of powerhouse Tulane, but with all Josh Harris accomplished in college can't even hook on as a back-up out of the same draft.

Add Mike Weger to that list in '66, according to the media guide.

Kory is gonna make waves in the NFL...he is really THAT good. He's worked very hard to get where he is...and it will be tough to see him only put on the BG jersey one more time. He's always been one of the Freaklings' fave players.
ROCK IT, BRO!!!! Kory, U da man.
Thanks for posting the article, MB!
