Small college players in postseason all-star games
Saturday is a big day for NFL draft trackers.
The East-Shrine Game begins at 4 p.m. Two hours later, the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl begins. Both nationally televised games are scouting showcases. Strong performances can enhance a player's draft stock. Poor performances can cause a player's stock to plunge.
The top postseason all-star game -- the Senior Bowl -- holds a prominent spot on the football calendar. The game presents a football option between the conference title games and Super Bowl.
Most players jockeying for draft position during the next eight days competed for FBS or FCS schools. But a talented collection of small-college players are appearing in the games. Here's a list of players who competed for Division II, III or NAIA schools looking to crack draft boards.
Perhaps one of the players listed below lands with the Browns, who selected Chadron State's Garrett Gilkey and East Central's Armonty Bryant in last year's seventh round. Gilkey and Bryant both played for Division II programs.
