Jadar Johnson, Joe Williams among top Shrine Game standouts Published: Jan 19, 2017 at 08:43 AM NFL Media analyst ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- A week of practices is wrapping on Thursday here at the East-West Shrine Game. The annual all-star game produces plenty of NFL players, including some who go on to stardom in the league (you might have heard of one such player -- Tom Brady). The game hosts more than 100 prospects who get a chance to make an impre sion with NFL evaluators watching. Here are 10 players that stood out to me during the week of practices, and ones I'll be watching closely during Saturday's game: Florida Atlantic DE : Hendrickson had an outstanding week. He won almost every single rep in the one-on-one periods and he was consistently disruptive in the team portion of practice. He has very quick hands and a good feel for what he needs to do to win as a pa s rusher. Drake TE : Saubert generated a lot of buzz this week because of his speed and Mack Wilson Jersey a few athletic catches he made early in the week. He isn't a physical point-of-attack blocker, but he has value as an athletic, flexed out tight end. He probably has the highest upside of any prospect in the game. Washington State WR : Marks was my favorite receiver during the week of practice. He lacks ideal size and top speed but Cole Strange Jersey he's very quick and savvy as a route runner. He tracks the ball naturally and he has soft hands. Every year there is a receiver at this game that ends up contributing right away at the next level; Marks would be my choice from this year's group. Utah RB : Williams has an outstanding burst and he was a little bit thicker than I anticipated. He is going to be a mismatch in the pa sing game as he gains more experience. He looks like an ideal change-of-pace back at the next level. UCLA CB : Moreau has excellent size and athleticism. He had a solid week in pa s coverage. He has quick feet and he's a fluid athlete. He was very aware in zone coverage. I thought he really helped himself with his performance during the week. Clemson S : Johnson has an NFL frame and he got his hands on a lot of footballs this week. He needs to improve his ability to finish (he dropped a couple potential interceptions) but I was impre sed with his instincts and quickne s. Arkansas DE : Wise got better every day and showed some raw power as a pa s rusher. He has an ideal frame as a defensive end and he used his hands very well in the individual drills. He has some stiffne s, but he fits as a 4-3 defensive end at the next level. Michigan RB : Smith has been very solid in Rodney Harrison Jersey every area during the week of practices. He runs with power and balance between the tackles and he was more effective in the pa sing game than I expected. He caught the ball easily and was a little quicker than he looked on game tape. Vanderbilt OT : Holden had an up and down week, but overall, I thought he stood out as one of the best linemen at this game. He lost a couple one-on-one battles to Hendrickson, but I thought he was competitive despite moving back and forth from guard to tackle. He needs to improve his core strength, but he has some tools to work with at the next level. Louisville DT : I was impre sed with Brown during Tuesday's practice. He flashed some quickne s as an inside rusher and was very disruptive in the running game. He lacks ideal height, but he plays with excellent leverage.
