Senior Bowl = unfair advantages?

Why has the Senior Bowl flown so far under the radar when it comes to access/fairness for all teams?  And how long will current practices stay in place?

Coaching staffs are chosen primarily from the bottom of the standings and from teams that do not fire their head coaches.  But why should the bronco's be allowed such a close and in-depth look at qb prospects to the exclusion of other teams?

Used to be the Senior Bowl was a throw away, teams sent their scouts and everyone on their best behaviour and gentleman's rules.  But in the  competitive scramble to gain every edge and every scrap of information this seems a huge advantage for the teams of the coaching staffs chosen.

I know Hue Jackson was offered and declined the offer to coach at the senior bowl. Giants and Colts dont have head coaches yet. Browns have pick 4. Denver is next up with pick 5. Just follows the draft order. 

Denver has a real shitty qb situation too. Darnold and Rosen probably go #1 and #2 . Colts have Luck. Browns have 4. Denver probably not interested in Lamar Jackson. So they'd most likely pick Baker Mayfield or Josh Allen.

    • Exactly He's played two seasons and started 28 games. He's well beyond the point of being able to point to 2 or 3 games and being able to say, "THAT is the QB he is and will be in the future" Of course he can get there, but anyone trying to use just those couple of games to rank his place amongst the games QB's today and their full career's worth of playing at that level, is just asinine. Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Burrow, Hurts, Herbert, Daniels, Stafford, Goff, Geno, Purdy, Baker, Love, Dak, Tua, Kyler, Lawrence That's 17 QB's right there that have played better over their careers than Bryce has played at his best.  And I'm not saying they're all studs or guys I'd want to be our QB moving forward, Tua for example I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole, but his body of work is a million times better than Bryce's has been. It's also not including any of the other QB's drafted in 2023/2024 other than Daniels. So again, say you believe in Bryce, say you think he's going to prove he can and should be our QB of the future, that's all fair and totally fine. But nobody can say he's been an above average QB in his career thus far, it's just an asinine notion.
