Senior Bowl roster taking shape
Eighty-one initial invites have already gone out.
And the number of Senior Bowl accepted invites grows by the hour. On Friday, Utah running back Zack Moss and defensive end Bradlee Anae accepted their invitation to play in the game, bringing the number of Utah players who have accepted invites to six. Other Utes include linebacker Francis Bernard, defensive back Julian Blackmon, safety Terrell Burgess and defensive lineman Leki Fotu.
No school had more first wave @seniorbowl invites than @Utah_Football. Excited that Francis and Julian are the first commits to Mobile. Both guys are playmakers for the top-10 Utes. Good luck the rest of the season, @Francis57045035 and @JulianBlackmon! pic.twitter.com/BXMHLNkqxW

Some big names – literally – have accepted invites, including Auburn OT Prince Tega Wanogho and DT Derrick Brown, and South Carolina DT Javon Kinlaw. All are first- or second-round prospects, with many projecting Brown to go in the top-10.
Fanspeak ranks Brown as its No. 4 prospect, followed by Kinlaw (No. 23) and Wanogho (72).
The Senior Bowl is Jan. 25 at 1:30 p.m. and will be televised on the NFL Network.
Bleacher Report NFL draft analyst Matt Miller has been impressed thus far with the roster.
