Three Invited to NFL Combine
Dan Connor, Justin King, and Anthony Morelli were all invited to participate in the NFL combine at the end of the month. Dan Connor probably doesn’t have much to prove and this should all be more of a formality for one of the top linebackers in the nation. Instead this could be just what King and Morelli need to improve their stock.
King is rumored to be a possible third round choice and could sneak into the second round. If scouts were watching his defensive play in the 2007 season though they will probably need to see some majorly impressive output at the combine. As for Morelli, he needs to have the combine of a lifetime to push himself up to the seventh round.
Morelli’s arm is still his biggest asset so a team may find it worth an invite to training camp to see if they can work with his awareness and decision making.
The combine will be televised heavilly by the NFL Network, as the end of February gives them little to show other than repeats of Super Bowl XLII.
