While the Reese's Senior Bowl is the most prominent Pre-Draft Showcase the East West Shrine Bowl is right behind it as every NFL Team sends its scouts out to watch the Week's events. The players go through four practices with a staff from an NFL team before facing off against another team of College Stars looking to improve their draft stock.
Three LSU Tigers will hit the field in the East West Shrine Bowl as Bradyn Swinson, Greg Penn III, and Zy Alexander will take part in the showcase.
Four #LSU Tigers accept invitations to East-West Shrine Bowl:
— Luke Hubbard (@Clukehubbard) November 13, 2024
- Bradyn Swinson
- Sai'vion Jones
- Zy Alexander
- Greg Penn III
Sai'Vion Jones won't be participating in the East West Shrine Bowl as he has since accepted his invitation to the Reese's Senior Bowl.
Bradyn Swinson is the one who can boost his Draft Stock the most with the potential to sneak his way into the back end of the First Round od this year's draft. The majority of the top tackles in the Draft aren't participating in this game so this should be a week where Bradyn Swinson dominates. If Swinson can put up a massive performance paired with his incredible season this year, he'll have a shot at skyrocketing up Draft boards.
Greg Penn III will look to solidify himself as a player selected in this year's draft as he's currently a projected Day 3 Pick to an Undrafted Free Agent. Where Penn III will need to impress is in coverage as he's shown over the past few seasons that he's a willing and capable tackler.
Finally, Zy Alexander will look to solidify himself as a Day Two Pick after a solid season this year. Coming off of a torn ACL, Zy Alexander had a solid season and now he gets to showcase his talent and ability in front of NFL Scouts. Where Alexander will look to shine is in the one-on-one drills as he excels in man coverage but, has struggled at times against better Wide Receivers.
