Keep an eye on these players below

QB Curtis Painter - Purdue - 6’3” 222 lbs.
Experienced three year starter gets a chance to continue his strong finish of his career. After dealing with some injury problems and erratic play earlier in the ’08 season, he displayed the accuracy and arm strength to rank as the highest rated passing in this game. A strong performance here and he could be one of the top senior QBs off the board in April.

RB Devin Moore - Wyoming - 5’9” 191 lbs.
Small compact tailback is a very elusive runner who is a threat in the open field. He can put together a number of moves with the burst to create room and make a big play. As a receiver, he shows fine hands and great quickness that makes him difficult in matchups vs linebackers or safeties. He has an interesting skill set to fill a number of roles including the return game.

TE Ryan Purvis - Boston College - 6’4” 255 lbs.
Tough hard noised prospect combines good blocking skills with reliable hands to be a fine addition for a pro offense. He is a blue collar player with well rounded skills, though only adequate speed for the position.

WR Dominique Edison - Stephen F. Austin - 6’2” 199 lbs
Fast small college receiver is one of the interesting prospects in this game. He has sub-4.4 speed, fine size and displays the burst to get deep with excellent hands to make the big play. He heads a strong group of small college prospects including two receivers - Gardner Webb's Dobson Collins and Abilene Christian’s Johnny Knox.
